The Scrappery CT - "Chasing Dreams" Gift Set

Good morning, I hope you ae enjoying your weekend and are able to get some creative time in before the week ahead. Well today I have a quick and simple little project I made using the gorgeous 'Blair' kits. I have already told yo all how much I love these kits.

So here is my project. Just a simple card and a tag. This would be perfect to finish off a gift with a because card and tag. These colours just call for my attention with the touch of gold also.


This is a simple by pretty card I made using some scrap pieces of paper. I added one of those beautiful gold puffy stickers, some of the chipboard Thickers, enamel dots from my stash and some ink splatters also to finish the card off.
 
 
Here are some close ups of the card.
 
 

Now the tag I love! Again I used some scrap pieces of paper that are included in the kits, some chipboard Thickers again and some more of the beautiful Maggie Holmes puffy stickers. And nothing is finished without some enamel dots that are from my stash.

 
Here are some close ups.
 
 
 
 
I hope this little project I have created this week has inspired you to make just a little something even if it is just a card or a simple tag.

Hope you all have a wonderful week ahead.

Helmar Design Team - Gold Featured on a Card

Hello my fellow Helmar fans. Lydia back to share a fun card that features GOLD!! Who doesn't love gold?  I had fun making this card because I got to try out some gold leaf.

So for this card I use:
  • Helmar Craft Glue
  • Plain card and envelope
  • Gold Leaf
  • Scrapbooking paper scraps
  • Embellishments

 First things first; the gold leaf. All I did was put a little bit of Helmar Craft Glue in places where I wanted to put the leaf. And very carefully place some gold leaf in those spots with glue and press it down.

And then I just used some left over scrapbooking paper to layer up in front of a paper doily. I then used some chipboard embellishments and finished the card with a few gold splatters which don't quite show up in the photos.

And here are some close ups of my card featuring gold. I love hw it turned out and the colours that I used worked so well with the gold.

The Scrappery CT - 'Happy Together'

Well hello Scrappery friends, Lydia back. I hope you are all well. So after starting a new school term and recovering from nearly three weeks with appendices, I am finally able to share a layout I created with the new 'Blair' kits.  Can I just say, I am in love with the colours and products in these kits.

So here is my first project using the kits.
 
 
Oh my, those colours are all me.  I love them so much. I did do some fussy cutting to give the page another element ad some dimension with those beautiful butterflies.
 
 
I love he botanical feel of this kit and the beautiful greens and pinks together. And you can't go past a little black and white also. I am also falling for those gold puffy stickers too.
 
 
A layout wouldn't be complete without one of those delicate doilies under the photo.  I also added some tiny words to my layout also.
 
 
And the title I used a mix of fronts form the Thickers that are in the TSK. And again I added some enamel dots to finish the page.
 
 
 
I hope you are all creating with your 'Blair' kits and I can't wait to see them if you post tem in the Scrappery Club Inspiration group on Facebook.

Have a wonderful day.
