Wonderful - 49 and Market Evergreen Season

 Hello and welcome to the blog today, the last day of 2024 ! 

What better way than to end with a Christmas layout of my two amazing grand kids and Santa.



I have used the 12x12 Red Foundations paper as the background then added the bonus paper on the reverse of the Collections pack trimming it to 11x11 so I have a border around the layout. The photograph has been matted using a piece from the 6x8 paper pack.



I have created a layered cluster starting with the window frame with a piece of the 6x8 paper in the background, then added foliage pieces, wood circles and flowers. The lanterns have been sculpted with foam tape added to the back to hold their shape. Finishing off this cluster is the deer and bows.

The chipboard word "Wonderful" has been added as my title, I have coloured it in using a pen to cover the white edges and making it blend more.




The bottom cluster is also made using the Elements and Wildflower laser cuts starting with the frame and adding the same paper in the background. Then layered foliage and Santa together with the red truck and star flowers and bows.




There are two different rub on transfer packs that I have also used. The Wildflower pack that has lots of foliage and flowers and the Essentials that has paint splatters, phrases and words.

Thank you for joining me on the blog today and I wish you an amazing New Year. 

2025 is going to be amazing.

My Little Man - 49 and Market - Rust and Rev's

 

Hello and welcome to the blog today, I hope you are all ready for the festive season. I am looking forward to spending some time with my Grand kids over the holidays. Like Mason, who adores being outside in nature, whether it be the beach or a park or the "bush". I love these photos of him climbing a tree at the park across the street from us.



I have used the Rust & Rev's range and started with the 12x12 "Macho" paper then added a strip of the washi tape on the top and the bottom of the page.



I have then used 2 sheets from the 6x8 paper pack to use as photo mats then distressed the edges of the mats and the photographs. Using the Die cut and Laser cut pieces I have made a cluster at the top of the page hanging from chains and added the title "My Little Man". 


At the left hand side of the photos I have made another cluster this time using the cactus plants layered over each other to form the look of a planter box. 

The two die cuts I have used like wavy roads were white around the edges, I just used a pen and coloured the edges to fit into the layout better.




I just had to use the "Prince Charming" Die Cut, again I have coloured the white edges with a pen then added an arrow over the top using foam tape for dimension, then added more laser cuts to form another cluster.




The Frame I have used is from the Die cut set as well as the background paper, then I have added Laser cuts like the chain adding dimension by rolling the paper. 

To finish off my layout I have added Rub on Transfers around the page with some of the epoxy wishing bubbles. 

I wish everyone a wonderful break and hope you get some awesome scrapping time. 

See you again in 2025 with some more spectacular ranges from 49 and Market.

Wonderful World Flip Album - 49 and Market Birdsong

 

Hello everyone 

Today I am sharing a little Mini flip album I have created using the Create-An-Album 6x8 Waterfall Enclosure - White. These can be added to any of the 49 and Market albums or like below as a stand alone project.





I have used the Birdsong 6x8 paper pack and started by adding the papers to the Waterfall enclose pages.







I have then cut the washi sheet into strips and added them in the spine folds. Then gone through and attached all of my photos of my amazing grand children together.







I have then added ephemera pieces, laser cuts and chipboard mix pieces. 
After all of the decorating I went back and added Element rub on transfers.

Thank you for joining me today
If you head over to Instagram you can see a "story" of the whole album.
