Charming, Handsome and Mischievous - 49 and Market Rust and Revs

 

Charming, Handsome and Mischievous, this describes both my Nephew and Grandson to a T ! Especially the mischievous part when they are together. I took these photos on the way back from a Dirtbike show we went to for Mason's birthday called the "Freestyle Kings".
They both has a great time and loved the show.



The colours in the photo are just perfect for the Rust and Revs collection. I have started with the "Freedom" paper in the background as a frame and then trimmed 1/2 inch from the top of the "Discovery" paper. Instead of cutting some off of the side of the paper I have scored it and pleated the paper on the right hand side.



I then used Frames from the Die cut set and put pieces of the patterned paper behind the windows to look like the inside of a workshop behind the first photograph then added some wood panel and cactus on the side of the second photo.



The Laser cut elements have been layered with tyres, cogs and an old fashioned radiogram. 
The words Charming, Handsome and Mischievous are also from the Die cut pack. I have cut the white section from around the outside of the word then coloured in the white space with a pen to blend into the layout more. 



Washi tape pieces have been added underneath all of the gorgeous old cars which have been added with foam tape behind them to pop in some cactus pieces.  The compass rose has been added to the top right corner with chain and arrow laser cuts.
Finishing off the page are the epoxy wishing bubbles and baubles added to the frames and different parts of the layout.

Love This - 49 and Market Vintage Orchard

 

I have had this gorgeous photo of my oldest son for so long, just sitting unscrapped until the Vintage Orchard range hit my craft desk.




I started with the 12x12 Solids pack and cut a circle out of the middle of the page. 
 Then added the 12x12 Pear Tree patterned paper which I have trimmed to 11.5 x 11.5 to make a border around the edges. I cut the circle in half and added a semi circle on each side of the photo stack.





I have used acetate pieces, like the filmstrips and frames. The cutest little saying " Sweetest Apple in the Orchard " is also an acetate piece that I have added some white cardstock behind so you can see the pieces better.






I have done the same with this buck wheat signage but added the yellow behind the acetate piece then added a frame from the Stacked Frame set. Using the Elements and Wildflower laser cuts I have added leaves and images.






I have then added pieces from the Ephemera stacks and laser cuts layering tickets, lace and more.






The checkered patterned paper makes is easy to add some hand sewn cross stitches to the layout. 
To finish off my page I have added chipboard words plus wishing bubbles & bauble epoxy stickers.
