Prima Divine- Kayla

Hi There!
Shell Carman here sharing my last Prima Divine Post for this month. If you are looking for a pretty/shabby chic collection then Prima Divine is for you!

This is an old photo of Kayla when she was just 10 weeks old. She is about to celebrate her 5th birthday in April. This photo to me sums up her personality in an instant. She looks so peaceful & serene in the photo even though she had a rough start to life spending her first 2 weeks in hospital in the special care nursery.

Echo Park Photo Freedom - Project Life

Hi everyone! It's Sam Hauzer here, with yet another layout to share from my Project Life album, using the fabulous Echo Park Photo Freedom V1...   

I'm still finding it a little tricky to get good photos through the page protectors, but the album is coming together really well, and the kids are already loving looking through it.

I added a couple of extra things to this layout, like the doilies and flair buttons, and I've actually used a half page photo sleeve, to add a few extra photos to the layout.

If you haven't started a Project Life style scrapbook album, I would highly recommend it. It's so easy to keep track of those little everyday moments that might not usually make it onto a scrapbook page, but most of all, it's just so easy and FUN!!

You can grab this range in the Sassy Scrappers Shop HERE.

Hope you have a great week! 

'Bundle Kraft paper and some fun!!!

So I am today going to show you something that I was so excited to discover when playing with Amy Tangerine's Yes Please Bundle Kraft Paper, I did this layout for another one on my design teams but I couldn't not share with you all the technique in this layout!!!

 

I love Kraft papers and I discovered these Amy Tangerine ones a couple of month ago and though "ohhhh no, I missed all of these'', so I was delighted that they were new ones in the Yes Please range. Looking at the paper I knew I wanted to colour it in some way whether is was just a little splash or with water colour, but I didn't want to wait for the paper to dry so that reminded me that I am the proud owner of Copic markers....

 

(Based on Inspired Blueprints Sketch #86)

Just with 4 markers this is how the background worked out, the white seems to resist the markers  a little bit which means you don't have to be too finicky in your colouring technique....

Don't forget to mix up your fonts, here I have used the Amy Tangerine Yes Please Printed Chipboard Goodness Woodgrain  thickers and the Prima Engraver Canvas Alphabet Stickers, its a great way to highlight a key word too.

Too Eggcited!

Isn't this year flying! Easter is just around the corner and I have whipped up a layout using Studio Calico's Sundrifter collection to hopefully get you excited about scrapping the gorgeous faces of those little ones, amazed at what Mr E. Bunny has left them!

For the title, I've altered the colour of a couple of the alphas using a Faber Castell Pitt artist pen in Blue Metallic. It gave such a great finish and didn't smudge or show any blending lines. Fab! 

To add a bit of sweetness, I cut a beautiful floral background from some Kaisercraft cardstock in Coconut, using my Silhouette. I layered this on top of the SC 'Dreamweaver' paper and misted in places, using some Mister Hueys.

The little bunnies are a vector graphic I had on file. They are so sweet and playful, I couldn't resist printing them onto some cardstock for some custom embellies!

Wishing you a wonderful weekend,  thanks for stopping by! Chantalle

Prima Divine- My Darling Girls

Hi There! Shell with you today. I've been playing with the gorgeous Prima Divine collection this month & I'm still crushing on the shabby chic goodness of it all! With a beautiful soft palette & gorgeous vintage images it is so much fun to work with! My girls asked me to take a few photos of them out the front of the house the other day. They love posing a saying 'I'm a fashionista'. I think I have 2 little Divas on my hands! Because they are usually goofing around & totally over posing it is hard to get a nice shot but I did mange to get them to sit still for about 2 minutes for this photo!

Because the background paper I used is so busy I have toned down the amount of embellishments I used on this page. The repeat use of doilies & 2 similar clusters of flowers allow the eyes to rest so that the page doesn't look too busy.

Echo Park Photo Freedom - Project Life

Hi everyone! It's Sam Hauzer here, with another layout to share from my Project Life album, using the fabulous Echo Park Photo Freedom V1...

The alphabet stickers in this collection are the perfect size for adding a bit of journalling to the photos and journalling cards, and the quotes and sayings that are on the printed journalling cut outs are suitable to use with so many different themed photos.

 

 

 All I've added is a black pen outline to everything to make it all stand out.
