The Scrappery CT - 'happy sweet 16th birthday'

Hello Scrappery peeps, Lydia back to finally share another project using the 'Belle' kits. The past few weeks has been crazy with end of semester exams and then a school camp to start the school holidays, and in that process I lost my creative mojo and have been stuck in the ditch trying to get back out of it. But I am back and ready to get the paper and glue back out and to create.

So here is a project a I have been meaning to do a blog post for a few weeks and it is a sweet 16th card I made for one of my friends. I love how this card turned out wit the beautiful florals in the 'Belle' kits.

 

 

I did do a little bit of fussy cutting of the florals but it was worth it because they are gorgeous. I did use doily from my stash as it did need something delicate in the background.

 

 

I used the fabric Thickers and I also used one of the Cocoa Vanilla wood veneer words that says 'sweet'. I love the addition of the wood veneer and different font within the alpha's.

 

 

 

And of course to finished the card I added some of the beautiful glittery Cocoa Vanilla Studio enamel dots.

 

 

So I hope you like this card and I will sure be back very soon to share another project.

I am glad I am back and can't wait to do another blog post.

 

Hope you have a wonderful week ahead.

The Scrappery CT - "Hello 15"

Lydia back today to start the year off with another layout.

This layout is a bit belated as this is about me turning 15 which was back in September, but I had to document it and I love how this collection works perfectly with birthdays an celebrations.

 

 

As I start to get low on my kits I knew I wanted to do a birthday layout using them. I didn't use many embellishments as I wanted the big cake in the background to be the main focus. I did however do a few small clusters. 

 

 

Here is on of the clusters which I did with the title "Hello 15".

 

 

Now when I first saw these wood veneer candles I had no idea how I was going to use them, but what a perfect way to use them on the top of the cake. I really love this feature of the layout.

 

 

And lastly another cluster in the top corner.

 

 

I hope you all have a wonderful first day of 2017 and maybe even get in some scraping.

12x12 Layout - "Beautiful"

Morning beautiful creatives, How your morning going.

I am currently working through my list of blog duties and things I need to do for my creative side, but I am here this morning to share another 12x12 traditional layout using the Maggie Holmes "Bloom" collection again. I LOVE this collection.

Here is the layout.

I did something different with is layout and decided to do a little bit of sewing and I love the texture the sewing gave the layout.

The Studio 1440 "Use Your Words" were the perfect colour for this collection and I love how thy worked on this layout.

This wood veneer "Beautiful" is fro one of our cheap shops here in Australia and I painted it with Heidi Swapp Gold "Colour Shine".

And lastly I punched a few little hearts and added them like confetti and sewn thought the middle of the bigger hearts.

 

Hope you enjoyed this layout. I am now off to take photo of some Project Life layouts, so be sure to keep your eyes out for them.
