You're Awesome - 49 and Market - ARToptions Alena

Hello 49 and Market Fans, today I am on the blog with a selfie photo of my amazing little grandson and I on a "Nanny & Mason" day that we had together. We went by train to the museum to see the Dinosaurs of Patagonia display of the amazing bones found. What was the most fun was not being in a hurry ! We took our time wandering around and Mason had fun at the nearby little park and activities that were on that day. When I saw the ARToptions Alena range it looked perfect to scrapbook this memory.

I have started with the 12x12 paper titled "Peek-A-Boo" as my background, distressing the edges and added alternating strips of the fabric tape set to the bottom of the page.

Next I used the oval frame from the laser cut sheet and added a light peach piece of paper from the 6x8 paper pack to the back. I then added a large floral from from the amazing 12x12 rub on transfer sheet.

I have then layered more of the 6x8 papers behind the photograph, using foam tape inbetween the pages.

I have then layered pieces of the ephemera and topped with the chipboard book plate that I have added brads to and title of my layout "Your Awesome".

Ocean Jade flowers are one of the perfect colours to compliment the Alena range so I have created a flower cluster entwined with fine laser cut pieces and acetate leaves and butterflies.

I have create the curled paper fringe by cutting the paper in regular intervals and using an awl curled the paper around it. Layered under a lace laser cut piece to add interest and depth.

The "Embrace Life" has been created by layering pieces of the chipboard pieces into the arrow shape. I have added some of Ocean Jade flowers and laser cuts to balance the composition of my page finishing off with some of the gorgeous butterflies and cute mini metal index clips.

Sweet as Candy - 49 and Market Spectrum Sherbet

Hello everyone and welcome to my newest page using the amazing Spectrum Sherbet range which suits my gorgeous, happy, sassy, sweet as candy amazing little grand daughter.

I have started with the solids Watermelon paper and machine sewn zig-zag and straight stitch around the edges, while I had my machine out I decided to stitch around the chipboard part of the Strawberry Lemonade Frame sets. The Painted Foundations - Washed paper has been trimmed to 11x11" and adhered to the background paper.

A section of the butterfly 6x8 paper has been framed in the zig-zag small frame and slipped under the photographs on the left. To add interest I have cut around the orange butterfly and raised it's wings. When you do this it makes a hole at the back of your paper so I have added a piece of the pink paper as a peek a boo backing, then added an Orange Index clip to balance the frame.

On the right hand side under the layers is a piece of painted corregated card to which I have added one of the lace 12x12 rub ons.

I have layered pieces of the ephemera pack together with laser cuts. To add dimension to the elements rub the back on a mouse pad with a pen or tool.

The gorgeous chipboard words and shapes have been added along with the acetate leaves. To finish off my layout I have added an array of the 6x8 rub on transfers like the stitching, strips, stars and butterflies. One of the butterflies I have added to clear acetate to give it form and shape like it is flying.

I hope you have enjoyed my bright and beautiful layout today and I will see you soon.

Awesome - 49 and Market Spectrum Sherbet

Hello 49 and Market Fans, meet my sweet, gorgeous grand daughter Rivah and her "baby" Rosie. I knew this was a perfect photo for Spectrum Sherbet range especially with the clothes that Rosie has on, bright and funky like the papers.

I have started with the Brumbleberry paper in the background with the gorgeous yellow to pink colours.

I have then added Painted Foundations paper Rainbow in the form of a circle shape with tags in the background.

On the right hand side I have used one of the 6x8 papers adding another layer along with ephemera and laser cut pieces.

The word "awesome" I have used as the title is from the Chipboard word pack. Layered more and more with ephemera pieces and laser cuts at the bottom of the photo with the lace laser cut.

I have finished off my page with pieces from the chipboard shape set, Passion Pink flowers and an array of different rub ons from the 6x8 Palettes and Strawberry Lemonade packs.

Time Treasured - 49 and Market

Hello 49 and Market fans

I hope you are all ready for the festive season, it is coming up so fast to Christmas Day.

Today I have a layout created of my adorable Grand Daughter, she is so super sweet and she might be spoilt just a tiny bit by her Nanny !

I have used the awesome new Vintage Artistry Naturalist collection starting with the "Countryside" paper printed with those gorgeous little birds. I have then used a piece of the "Meadow" paper torn and inked on both edges, using foam tape to add dimension I have mounted it onto the "Classified" yellow sheet which has also been distressed and inked to add interest. These two have then been added to the bottom of the Countryside sheet.

I have then framed my photograph using the Whitewash Chipboard Frame, again inked around the edges. In the left top corner of the frame I added a laser cut bow then a bow made from the 5ply Jute.

Those amazing window frames are laser cuts from the 12x12 collection pack. I have then added two pieces from the ephemera bits and file frame sets behind the photo.

I have then added the "Time Treasured" chipboard sticker piece as my title to the page.

If you find the edges and pieces too white and crisp for your page you can always ink them like I have here. The cute little hearts are from the Naturalist wishing bubbles and trinkets set.

The Rustic Blooms, Cranberry and Royal Spray Sunshine flowers compliment the Naturalist collection to perfection. I have added them together with laser cuts to both sides of the photograph.

To finish off my page I have layered some of the rub on doilys at the top of my page with some laser cuts and best ever tag. The rough sew rub ons have been added to the coral coloured ephemera piece around two of the edges and the sides of the green Meadow paper .
