Trendsetting Sunday

Good morning, Rikki here. This Sunday mark the first Sunday in the holidays for us over in the West and I must say I am loving the idea of just not doing the school runs, as my darlings don't believe in sleep ins, so no school is the small blessing for me....
 
Today I thought I would share with you a layout using the Fancy Pants Trendsetter, in store now.... For those who think I don't do kits I hope I can change you mind, the first positive for buying a kits is  for value you get all the papers in the range and lets face it, there's nothing worse than buying some pattern papers and getting home to realise you should have brought that piece it would have been perfect for this layout I am working on. Another big positive for me is the sticker sheets especially the alphas, it takes the hard work out of titles, one more point that is a huge positive is you have everything perfectly co ordinated which is a great time saver.
 

To bulk out the kit I went into my stash of flowers and paper doilies and if your like me, its definitely a plus to use what you have already and to keep yourself on budget.


The banner stickers are a great time saver just add a little foam mount and twine and your banner is complete.




 You cant go past all these beautiful things which are in the kit. Also think about adding some washi tape...........
 
 
 
I hope I have inspired you this Sunday why don't you pop over to the store and look at this kit and many more also have a look at the stunning Prima flowers if you don't have any in your stash.

Live for Adventure!

Hello hello, it's a beaut of a day in Brisbane... just in time for the weekend! 
Who knows what adventures we will get up to!

We recently had such fun out on the high seas (ok, more like the low river) 
It was Erin's first time out on the water and all she wanted to do was "go faster Daddy!"

Glitz's 'Color me Happy' has been inspiring me all month and the phrase 'Live for Adventure' was perfect for scrapping our little fishing expedition!

So the first thing you'll notice is that there is a big hole in my layout! The cut out was inspired by a card I saw once. By feeding the line from the rod, under the circle to the fish, 
it gives the layout a tremendous sense of movement - can you feel the excitement, as Erin lands her first catch?

That Crafter Workshop Tiny Circles template has been popping up
 all over the place and I am in love!

A hot trend right now is stitching. I've highlighted an area in the title by stitching some bright rays of sun, creating a ombre effect by using a couple of Josh's markers!
I wanted my journaling to be simple (as there is so much going on in this layout), so I created a little hideaway slit in the paper and secured it with a mini peg. I can not tell you how much I love those rhinestones!
Wishing you all an action- packed weekend!

My Kindy Girl

Hi There!

Shell Carman with you today with another Graphic 45 Secret Garden page. Purple is not a colour that pops up in the scrapping world often but it is one of my favourites. I tend to buy my girls lots of purple clothing so I like to match the girls clothes with my papers!

Kayla's kindergarten top was also purple so I thought it would match nicely with this collection!

Iv'e done lots of distressing & inking on this page with a bit of fussy cutting. The fence image throughout the collection is so pretty & there are all sorts of gorgeous flowers to fussy cut too!
Budget Tip- To save on paper I actually cut the middle of my paper out. I leave a 1 inch border all around then use the centre of the paper to create more layers
Some fussy cut flowers mixed with Prima flowers & a Flourish with a bling pearl flourish

The lovely fence image fussy cut with an Imaginarium Designs chipboard butterfly

Two Kaisercraft Layouts to Share

Hi everyone, it's Sam Hauzer here to share a couple of layouts I've created using some of Kaisercraft's newest collections. For this first one, I've use the gorgeous Needle and Thread range (available in the Sassy Scrappers shop HERE)

 


I love the warm cozy look of these gorgeous papers and I just had to scrap this photo of my beautiful guinea pigs. I outlined the photo, papers and wooden words with a black pen to make all the different elements stand out.

For this next layout, I've used the Remember Me collection...



This is the perfect collection for creating family layouts.You can grab this fabulous range in the Sassy Scrappers shop HERE.
