Flutterby Designs DT | Pinkfest

Hello Flutterby Peeps!!

Today I have a couple of layouts to share with you for FLUTTERBY DESIGNS. And they both are very PINK!

The first layout I created a couple of weeks ago using bits and pieces from different collections. But then my DT kit with all of the fabulous NEW stuff arrived and I had to create with it straight away!! So I thought I would keep the pink flowing by focusing on those elements in the We Run The World collection.

'Sweetheart'

So I started this layout by mixing up some Raspberry Punch and Arctic White Flutter Colour Paints. I then swiped it across the layout with a palette knife.

I then stapled on some strips cut from Mad About You Filler Photo Cards before swiping over the edges with some of the leftover paint.

Next I layered on some messy embroidery thread as well as fussy cuts and a polaroid frame before adding my photo and all of the cute bits and pieces.

Here's what I used:

Everyday Etc Filler Photo Cards: Mad About You

Page Tabs: Blank Palette

Page Tabs 2: Wood Veneer

Die Cut Bits & Bobs: Mad About You

Photo Cut Outs: Bright Tabs 1

Flair Button: Xtreme Teen

Flutter Colour Paint: Arctic White

Flutter Colour Paint: Raspberry Punch

Sticky Quick Quotes

Next up is my layout featuring the BRAND NEW We Run The World Collection.

'Beautiful Girl'

For this layout, I was super excited to use the stunning new patterned papers. I LOVE the patterned papers so much and the titles of them are just perfect. I used the "Diana" paper for this one. I started by adding the same mix of Flutter Colour Paint to my background. I diluted the paints with water and also spritzed some water onto my layout to make sure I got the paint really flowing and moving about my page. Once it was dry I flicked some of the paint over the layout too.

Next I grabbed the super sweet Sugar Sprinkles Stencil and applied texture paste over it to create some lovely 3D sprinkles. I let that dry and then used a white Posca Pen to highlight some of the sprinkles.

Then I did my usual and added lots of layers of embroidery thread, filler photo cards and cute embellishments.

Here's what I used:

We Run The World:

- "Diana" patterned paper

- Everyday Etc Filler Photo Cards

- Everyday Etc Photo Cards

- Die Cut Bits & Bobs

- Polaroid Cut Outs

- Sticky Quick Quotes

- Sugar Sprinkles Stencil

Photo Cut Out: Bright Tabs 2

Enamel Dots

Flutter Colour Paint:

- Brights Set Arctic White

- Brights Set Raspberry Punch

I hope you are feeling inspired now to go forth and play with your Flutterby supplies. I hope the postie is kind to you too and your order arrives super quick! Make sure you share all of your gorgeous creations in the Facebook Inspiration HQ group so we can leave some love!

Thanks for stopping by.

The Scrapbook Store DT | Once Upon A Dream

Hi peeps!

Today I have another share for THE SCRAPBOOK STORE featuring the Bo Bunny Penelope collection.

'Once Upon A Dream'

I was really drawn to the blues in this collection. Probably because my favourite colour is blue (well aqua actually but that's a blue). So I wanted to create a fairly monochromatic layout featuring all of the soft blues. I was dying to try out my new Darkroom Door Fine Leaves Stamp Set too so I used those stamps as well as the Fine Flowers on the background. I stamped with embossing ink and heat set with a fine white detail embossing powder. I love the delicate look this gives.

I painted the 2 Crafty chipboard title with three coats of white gesso.

I added a lovely fussy cut flower cluster as well as paper flowers and a super cute Prima resin squirrel that I have had in my stash for a very long time waiting for the right project.

Here's what I used:

2 CRAFTY Chipboard Once Upon A Dream

DARKROOM DOOR Rubber Stamps:

- Fine Flowers

- Fine Leaves

TIM HOLTZ Distress Embossing Ink

RANGER Embossing Powder Super Fine White

TSS 3.5cm Paper Flowers White

TSS 2.5cm Mini Lily Baby Blue

DUSTY ATTIC Mini Roses

embroidery thread

sequins

Posca Pen white

gesso

PRIMA Shabby Chic Treasures Resin

Kraft Plus DT - BIG!

Hello!!

Have you seen the BIG challenge at Kraft Plus Challenges this month?

Here's a peek at the challenge in case you missed it.

Kraft + something BIG on your layout.

I had fully intended to use a BIG photo on my layout for a change but I just happened to be out and about at my favourite shop ( Typo!) and came across some BIG rose gold photo corners in the bargain section. Cool!!

Here's what I created.

'Smile' Layout

In contrast to the large size of the photo corner I used a tiny photo.

I hope you get a chance to play along with the challenge this month.

Thanks for stopping by.

Cheers

Flutterby Designs DT - Happy Days

Hello!!

Today I have a monochromatic layout to share for FLUTTERBY DESIGNS featuring the Blank Palette range.

'Happy Days' Layout

I love this photo of my darling son just chilling in front of the tv. He is such a sweet natured, funny and clever kid.

I used the 'Bright Like A Diamond' stencil and a black journalling pen to add some interest to my white background. Something a bit different to my usual backgrounds!

I have layered some of the photo cards under my photo and fussy cut the polaroid frame from a photo card also.

Did I mention that I LOVE fussy cutting? There are two types of crafters in this world I reckon; those that love fussy cutting and those that don't. I myself find it relaxing so I love finding titles and images to fussy cut from the photo cards as I have done here.

I added a scattering of the 'Circles' Wood Veneer and coloured them black using a black Posca Paint Pen.

I finished by adding a flair button and some Sticky Quick Quotes and a little bit of washi tape from my own stash.

Products used:

Everyday Etc Photo Cards Blank Palette

Page Tabs Blank Palette

Sticky Quick Quotes

Die Cut Bits & Bobs Xtreme Teen

Stencil 'Bright Like A Diamond'

Wood Veneer 'Circles'

Have you tried a black and white layout before? It gives a pretty striking result don't you think?

I hope I have given you some inspiration to create your own monochromatic layout using fabulous Flutterby Designs products. Don't forget to share your awesome creations in the Flutterby Inspiration Group on Facebook so we can leave some love.

Thanks for stopping by.

Imaginarium Designs DT - Last Post

Hello Peeps!!

Today I am sharing my very last post for Imaginarium Designs.

I have three layouts to share.

First up is my take on the November Mood Board followed by two layouts about two of my many pets.

'A Beautiful Moment' Layout

All chipboard pieces for this layout have been altered with either gold or silver Posca Paint Pens.

Products used:

IDD0077 Loolabelle's Chevrons # 2

IDFR0009 Oval Frame with Brackets

IDP0211 Together Is A Beautiful Place To Be

IDS0062 Clock and Compass

IDS0076 21 Stars

IDS0078 Two Dragonflies

IDT0036 Stars Board

IDW0076 Capture Moment Smile

'My Best Friend' Layout

The title and corner chipboard pieces were painted with a couple of coats of white gesso first. Then I used a ruler to add gold Posca Pen to the bottom portions of the pieces.
