Magic - 49 and Market Christmas Spectacular

 Hello and welcome to my last post for 2023, we had a mini Christmas photo shoot done for Kyden, Mason and Rivah, when Bonita (the amazing photographer) sent through our session photos she added some in a snow globe with Santa, I totally adore this and chose this photo to scrapbook with the Vintage Artistry Christmas Spectacular range.

I started with 12x12 Spruce paper then tore 12x12 Foundations paper #1 in half and attached that to the bottom of my sheet. Using the 6x8 paper pack I then made three layers of Mats for the photo.

I put two strips of the Postage stamp washi tape down each side of the patterned paper. The Acetate Foliage really didn't stand out at all so I have painted the reverse with cream paint then added it to the corner and down the bottom of the photo.

The ephemera pack has gorgeous pieces of larger paper like the "Deck the Halls" paper along with tickets and more to layer, layer, layer.

I have used two different Laser cut packs to make my clusters, the Elements and the Foliage packs together, plus a few strands of the while lace.

Finishing off my page I have added 6x8 and 12x12 Sentiments rub on transfers and little Washi Stickers here and there. 

Wishing everyone a magical, safe and happy festive season

All My Heart - 49 and Market Moonlit Garden

 

Hello everyone and welcome to the 2nd of December, this date is a sad, crappy day for myself and family as it is 6 years today since my brother tragically passed away, I miss him every single day! I thought it was fitting to Scrapbook one of his most happiest days of his life, when he married the love of his life and gave me a Sister to love. The new Moonlit Garden range is perfect for this photo.

I started with a sheet of the Coloured Foundations pack Paper 3 and 12x12 pattern paper cut down to 11 and a half by 11 and a half, then machine stitched around the edges. I have used a frame from the ephemera bits pack for the photograph.

Adding a colour wash piece from the 6x8 rub on transfers to the top left corner then added three of the banner word saying and shaped them using hot glue underneath (or you could use foam tape) with some White Lacey trim added to the bottom one.

I have then used tickets from the ephemera back to layer, layer, layer the left side of the frame then added the "together" circle tag, with lacey trim as a ribbon and a 'true love" wishing bubble.

I really loved making this cluster using a frame with a wrought iron piece behind then added layers of the Wildflower laser cuts, ephemera and general laser cuts along with the title of my layout "ALL MY HEART"  and the gorgeous butterfly.

The right hand side of the photo is decorated with layers of the Wildflower Laser cut pack and love hearts from the chipboard set. I then covered the photo and the large cluster with paper and added Blue and Cream splats and some art stones here and there. 

I hope you have enjoyed my layout today and remember you can add your own creations to the 49 and Market Fans page on Facebook for all of us to share.

Christmas Sleigh - Dusty Attic NEW MDF Sleigh

 

Hello everyone and welcome to the blog today where I have constructed the NEW MDF Sleigh (Small) that holds a wonderful Christmas pudding smelling candle for a display.

I also have a quick video tutorial to share

HERE on Youtube

First you need to cut the pieces out of the MDF sheet carefully. 

I have then labelled the "inside" of my pieces as I only wanted to cover with paper on the outside. 

I have then used liquid glue to adhere the outside pieces to the paper.

I then spray painted all of the inside pieces with Silver spray paint. When it was all dry I used my craft knife to cut around the paper for the shape and sanded all of the edges then used Gathered Twigs Distress ink around all of the edges.

The Baubles and Branch & Berries I have spray painted with white on BOTH side of the chipboard.

I have then used florist foam to put in the bottom of the sleigh and calved out a circle for the candle to sit into. I then added my Poinsettias and Christmas Baubles. The Berries I have painted with Gold on both sides and then added them to the arrangement.

Merry Christmas - 49 and Market Christmas Spectacular

 

Soon it will be time for Christmas preparations to begin so in that spirit I am sharing a photo of Mason's first Santa photo with Kyden in 2018 using the Vintage Artistry Christmas Spectacular range.

I have started with the golden colour from the 12x12 Coloured Foundations paper pack and cut a rectangle out of the middle to use as a photo mat. Then I have used the "Christmas Exemplified" 12x12 paper cut down to 11x11 adhered to the background to make a frame around the paper.

The next thing I did was choose some accetate Filmstrip Frames and Lace laser cut pieces to layer behind the photograph. The General laser cuts have lots of beautiful pieces including this cute door which I have layered Santa, bows, bells, hearts and trees.

Chipboard pieces like the tags and stars have been added then the Chipboard Ho,Ho,Ho word. 

Finishing off my page is one of the large 12x12 Sentiments rub ons "Merry Christmas" at the top and "Dear Santa" at the bottom of my layout, party lights and bells have then been added from the 6x8 Rub on pack.

Thank you for joining me today and I would love to see your own creations on the 49 and Market Fans Facebook page.

This fills my Heart - 49 and Market Vintage Artistry Sunburst

 

Hello Crafters 

Today I have a new layout of my beautiful little Grand Daughter who was so happy with her new "Frozen Anna and Elsa" hair clips. I have used the bright happy Vintage Artistry Sunburst collection.

I chose the 12x12 Butterfly Corsage paper as the background with the gorgeous pattern at the top. I have then used the reverse of the 12x12 Lost Island paper to tear and then layer on top of each other making little slit pockets.

I have layered some of the Filmstrip Frames in the background, then used an array of different General and Tropical Foliage laser cuts to create a pretty pink cluster on the right hand side of the photograph. 

I loved the pink cord in the Sunburst Cluster kit so decided to use all of the elements for the bottom Cluster on my layout, the white papers layered behind with the Paradise tag which I have cut in half and used both ends along with the Frangapani's and "The best of Times" circle. I have then also added the black doily again cutting it in half to use part at the top and the bottom of the photograph. I have also added Lacey Trim white, fraying the edges into the layers of the paper and along the bottom of the photo mat.

Finishing off my page I added frayed Lacey trim to the Flower cluster at the top and sides along with the cute buttons that come in the Cluster Kit.

Hope you enjoy the Video Tutorial I have created making this layout. 

We would love to see any creations you make in the 49 and Market Fans Facebook group.
