Relax - Citrus Bliss

What's yellow and makes you feel happy all over? 

Yes, I'm talking about Pink Paislee's new Citrus Bliss collection Sassy friends!
 

I have been so excited to get my little paws on this gorgeous new line. 

There is SO much goodness in the store at the moment!!

The design of this page was inspired by the two fabulous flamingos that come in the wood veneer pack. Kitsch-cool, these two fine-feathered friends instantly made me think of long, lazy, ice cream filled days!

The duplicity theme followed down the centre of my page, with embellishments set in multiples of two. It kind of reminds me of a vintage poster.

The little acrylic butterfly shapes as well as the wording have been machine stitched onto the paper to add a bit of interest and texture.

I'll be back again next week with another fun project. There are a few more days to enter our April challenge and don't forget, if you treat yourself to goodies from the store, you can go into the draw to WIN a MINC!! Probably the best prize EVER!

Thank you so much for popping in today. 

Have a wonderful weekend

Wanderlust Binder - Anita Bownds

Hi everyone,

Today I'm sharing a few fin things to make to add to your binder using 

Wanderlust Binder Modern Foil

You could even put these in your planner..

I started with using the die cut watercolour paper and misted it light pink

Then I cut a 5x 7 bit of vellum to put behind my watercolour paper 

I glued it down and punched the holes to fit in my binder

And to give it a fun border I added a machine stitched edge

Next I made some fun journaling tags and mini pockets

Using a pre cut tag and a bit of vellum 

 

I machine stitched around the vellum and added some twine

It's pretty on the front and you can journal on the back

Here is how I created the mini pocket 

Cut a bit of patterned paper at 7x3 inch

Fold the bottom 3 quarters of a centimetre 

And fold in half add some double sided tape to one side

And fold in half and a little bit of glue to the edge 

And punch 2 hole in the glued side 

Then add some embellishments and your ready to add it to your binder

I hope you have fun making these fun thinks for your binder or planner

Happy crafting

Pink Paislee - Atlas Collection

Hello Leonie here today and I want to get right in to things

and let you know 

I'm completely enamoured with the new Pink Paislee - Atlas Collection!

I'll be creating with it over the next few weeks and showing you all just how awesome it really is.

Of course all the gorgeous elements from this collection are available in the 

Sassy Scrapper store HERE.

Although the collection is obviously aimed at travel themes,

I haven't actually scrapped a travel photo just an everyday photo of my three boys.  

There's plenty of patterns and elements that can be used in ways other than just travel photos.  

You just need to think about things in 

a slightly different way!

I decided to use this everyday picture of my boys and use it to document my hopes and wishes for my  boys.  Using it to encourage them to get out and experience life and all that it offers.  You can see my

hidden journalling on the tag that I have slipped behind the photo further down this post.

I must admit to you that I planned my whole page around this little cluster below and in particular the 'adventure' word and the rainbow aeroplane.  These two chipboard pieces are on the front of the pack of printed chipboard and I just loved how the word curved around the arc of the rainbow. 

So I set about finding some papers in the 6x6 paper pad that matched the rainbow behind the plane and mounted these behind my photo putting the colours in the same order as one the chipboard rainbow.  I wanted a background paper that had no bright colours that would detract from my rainbows so I chose the grey and white script paper.

This little cluster in the bottom left corner is made up of a card and transparent overlay from the instagram pack along with chipboard and die cut shapes layered with foam dots from the ephemera pack.  I used one of the instagram frames over my photograph and adhered with foam tape to add dimension making the photo recessed behind the frame. 

Here's the journalling I mentioned!  Life affirming messages 

I hope my boys will take note of one day.

So that's my page for this week I hope I've inspired you a little to, think outside the box when it comes to themed papers and collections.
