Fa La La | Crate Paper | Tarrah McLean

Hi Sassy Scrappers!

It's Tarrah McLean back with you today to share another festive layout using the gorgeous Crate Paper Fa La La collection!

You can find this gorgeous collection along with loads of beautiful craft products in the Sassy Scrappers store now! 

As soon as I saw that Fa La La patterned paper, I knew I wanted to cut it up into strips and separate them slightly....I added machine stitching through each trip to add some definition and detail. 

That gorgeous, gold, glitter die cut title makes a perfect title for this layout, I love how the font is different from the Fa La La in the paper...this helps it to stand out and pop off the page! 

The bauble die-cut is a nice touch underneath my photo, with the Fa La La theme still going on and the added bit of gold on the top! I used 2 of the flair buttons from the Fancy Pants Wish collection pack...  

Thank you so much for stopping by the Sassy blog today! Make sure you check out the Sassy store for all the gorgeous goodies to create your beautiful projects!

Happy creating!

25 | Crate Paper | Fa La La | Tarrah McLean

Hi there Sassy Scrappers!

It's Tarrah McLean back with you and today I would like to share a new scrapbook layout created using the gorgeous, festive Crate Paper Fa La La La La collection!

I started this layout by having just the top paper as my background, but once I had finished the page I felt it needed something else so I decided to trim down that paper and I added the green paper as my background. I like how it adds a bit more colour to the page!  

Because my son is holding the star for the top of the tree in this photo, I knew I had to add that gorgeous gold glitter star to the top of the photo. I also picked the star background paper as it matched so well with the photo!

I absolutely LOVE that '25' ephemera piece, this piece makes the perfect title for this layout too! That cute bird is from the 12 x 12 chipboard sheet, I added lots of ephemera pieces to embellish this layout!

Thank you so much for stopping by the Sassy blog! Make sure to check out the Sassy store if you would like to purchase some Christmas craft supplies, I highly recommend visiting the Sassy store - there are some amazing products to purchase in store!

Happy creating!

Little Explorer | Cool Kid | Tarrah McLean

Hi Sassy Scrappers!

It's Tarrah McLean joining you and today I am sharing another cool boy layout using the awesome Cool Kid collection by Crate Paper!

The Cool Kid collection is just so perfect for creating boy layouts! Whether it be an every day moment you are capturing or a major event, this collection has it all! This photo of my youngest son was taken by my older son when he was experimenting with my camera, we were waiting to go into the Tower of London this day and although the 'Little Explorer' title fits the story behind the photo, the photo itself doesn't show him exploring...it shows him just being his adorable self!

Also Oliver is not 8 years old in this photo, he is 6 but I wanted to include the pop of yellow to the right hand side since I had yellow in two other places on my layout. I am all about balance when I create a layout...I like to work in 3's and create a visual triangle as well. 

I included the transparent aeroplane ephemera to the right of my photo to help disguise some of the busyness that was going on in the photo....I quite often do this.....just by adding an embellishment, you can help the focus stay on the subject front and centre.

I added a couple of wood veneer pieces from my stash to this layout, I like to add different types of embellishments as I like to achieve different textures on my layouts!

You can find the Cool Kid collection plus so much more in the Sassy store right now, so make sure to check it out!

Thanks for stopping by the Sassy blog today!

Happy creating!
