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 .

Merry Christmas Santa - 49and Market Sketch Reveal

 

Hello 49 and Market Fans 
Well here we are in December ! 
The month of celebrating the holiday season and spending time with family and friends. For me it is also about capturing the Memories in photo or video form, staged or candid doesn't matter. 

It is also the first of the month so I have the honour of revealing this month's amazing sketch.  You could win one of two awesome 49 and Market Prize packs. 
(Details how to enter are below)

My take on the sketch using photo's of my much loved and adored nephew goofing around in-between his "photo shoot" pictures. His gorgeous personality shines through in each of these photos.

I have started with the Peace and Joy "Starry Night" paper tearing it in half then tearing another pieces approx  two inches wide and flipping it over to the dark green side to make the first border section.  Because it is a sketch and I can change it to suit what I wanted I have added a piece of the reverse red side of the "Wishes" paper. Then I have flipped the other paper back over to the stars side for the far right and layered it to complete a 12x12 sized page.

I have then continued by layering my photos with the frames from the laser cut sheets out of the 12x12 Collection pack. Underneath the photographs and frames I have a layer of chipboard to add dimension to the page and enable me to tuck pieces in behind.  Now,  the antique looking frames in the ephemera bits pack are just a huge favorite of mine and I have used the two shades of blue behind the photos. The large red frame from the die cut sheet I have cut in half and layered one piece with the file frame tag under the green strip and the other side under the frames on the right.

The hanging party lights has been created using the roughly sewn rubons in black to make it look like string then the lights are added from the wishing bubbles and trinkets pack.

To emulate the sketch with the falling frames I have used the red, green and blue ones from the ephemera bits pack along with tickets and file tabs .

The cluster on the left hand side with the striped candy cane red frame has the super cute RED Santa Boots that I just had to use along with foliage from the laser cut sheets, and adding the little epoxy dots to look like baubles. 

To finish off my whole page I have added some of the Essentials Hardware epoxied on the photos and a mountain of rub on transfers, the deer, the cute little robin bird, and lots of stars, around the boots, in the middle frame and around the robin plus a sprinkling of little sayings.

SEEK - 49 and Market

 Hello everyone, today I would like to share my layout for the amazing 49 and Market of my super gorgeous Grandson. I have used this months August sketch challenge as inspiration.

Did you know that every 12x12 Collection packs come with a bonus on the reverse of the cover sheet? There  is always an extra paper to use, in this case I have used the white map pattered piece from the Vintage Artistry "Anywhere" collection reverse of the cover sheet then the deep blue is the "Quest"  and mustard yellow is the "Fragments" papers both also from the Anywhere collection. 

Also in every 12x12 Collection pack are the most amazing laser cut pieces, I totally love the elastic looking ties that wrap around your photo or embellishments as you can see below with added ephemera stack pieces. 

Under the photos and ephemera I have used foam tape to raise them off the page for added dimension. I have also used liquid scrap dots under the Essentials foliage pieces.

Don't you just love that strip of skyline down the bottom of the page? Guess what, it is Washi strip that I have coloured with the Spectrum noir Tri-Blend pens that offer such a gorgeous range of shades.

Finishing off my page I have added more washi that I have coloured around the edge then an array of different rub on transfers like the arrows, tickets, leaves, Discover definition and the "life is short & the world is wide" saying plus all those cute little beads. The epoxy dots are from the Wishing Bubbles and Trinkets pack also in the Anywhere collection.

I hope my Grandson explores the world when he is older starting with his own country Australia. 
He is full of sass and curiosity which will take him far I know. Never stop Seeking Nanny's amazing little man.

Thank you for joining me today on the blog and wishing you get to have some creative time yourself, maybe to enter the sketch challenge to win one of two 49 and Market prize packs.

Details are as follows, 

• Use the sketch as an inspiration to create your layout, you can rotate, flip it, turn it upside down or even change the number of photographs, make it your own.
• Use at least 49 and Market’s papers and flowers. Remember to list all the products you used.
