Dream Big - Academia 49 and Market

Hello everyone and welcome to June already!
This year is going so super fast.
Today I have another layout of my Dad from his school days using the gorgeous Academia range from Dennis Bruton for 49 and Market.

I started with the background paper "Well Done" and cut a square out of the middle to use as a photo mat, I then machine stitched around the edges. I then have used the "Triumphant" Brick wall paper and cut it down to 11x11 inches and also machine stitched a border around the edge.

I then layered some of the border strips from the Laser Cut sheets and added some of the backpacks and elements. The bus is from the packaging fussy cut backing, which I have tucked behind the photo.

The Die Cut elements has this gorgeous window fame which I cut down the middle and sides so that the windows could open. Using Laser cuts I created a little bookcase scene inside the classroom then added the clock and leaves.

Using the green from the backing sheet I made a photo mat for my photograph then machine stitched around the edge of the mat and the photo.

Finishing touches are rub on transfers and layering more laser cuts like the light bulbs, tags and hexagon quotes.

This is a layout I did of my gorgeous grand children who had their very first "Siblings" School photo, to show you dont need old photographs for this amazing range.
This is the wood grain paper I have cut in strips, used foam tape and layered on the background paper.
I cut the Hexgon washi tape and added it like a border then added different clusters from the Die Cuts and Laser Cut elements then added rub on transfers.

Love this Life - 49 and Market Kaleidoscope

Hello and welcome to the blog today.

My gorgeous grand daughter turned 4 in January and we went to AQWA which is an Underwater Sea place. They had a real life Mermaid show that she just adored. When we saw the AI booth where you can take a photo and make it into a Mermaid we just HAD to do it, out of about 30 different mermaid underwater and beach scenes, Rivah chose this one.
Kaleidoscope range looks like it was created just for this photo.

I started with the 12x12 Solids paper #1 as a background then added the Treasured Teal paper after taking a 1/4 inch from each side and distressing the edges. I have also cut a piece out of the middle of the Solids paper and used as a photo mat for the photograph that I added some cardboard underneath for dimension.

The Blendable rub ons have been used in the top and bottom corners to add some background interest. Then I have used the Essentials Stitching rub ons to the top on each side.

Laser Cuts from the Essentials and Wildflower packs have been used for layers and layers of dimension. I have used foam tape under some pieces like the hummingbird.

Epoxy Wishing Bubbles and Baubles have been added to tie elements altogether and add some shine, gloss to the page.

The bottom cluster was made with a blendable rub on, laser cut pieces and the little pebble "Love this Life" that I have used to name my layout with added little epoxy love hearts.

Motorcross Boy - 49 and Market

Hello everyone, today I have a layout using the NEW Color Swatch Charcoal range of my little 5year old Grand son on a Motor Cross open day. The Fluro Green of his clothes add a pop of colour to the page and make the photos the focal points.

I started with the 12x12 Collection pack and used Paper #5 as the base and inked all of the edges. Paper #4 I cut to 6x12 then tore both of the longest edges.

On the left hand side of the paper I have layered a strip of Fabric tape and a torn piece of paper weight paper from the Ephemera stackers pack which I also tore to emulate the paper edge. Tucking in leaves from the laser cut pack and pieces from the ephemera stackers pack.

On the right hand side I have layered ephemera and laser cut pieces then added stitching rub ons from the new Essentials 02 pack. Then I have added different rub on transfers from the 6x12 pack.

I totally love the stitched Frame Set from all of the Color Swatch ranges, which I have used for all of the photographs on my page in different sizes. I then added a file tab and "make each day matter" strip with another line of the stitching rub ons.

There was an envelope piece in the ephemera stackers pack and I immediately thought this would be great to add some journaling about the day.
I decorated it with another of the stitched frames with leaves, hearts, buttons and loops from the laser cuts.

I hope you have enjoyed my page today of my fearless little grand son, please add any projects you complete in our 49 and Market Fans page on Facebook for us all to enjoy.
