Cards - With Scrapping Clearly!

Today I have some cards to share with you made with papers from the Bella Bllvd Illustrated Faith Bright and Brave collection and Heidi Swapp Embellishments - all available in the  Scrapping Clearly Store.
I started with a sheet of white cardstock and cut 2 card bases to give a final card size of 5 1/2" x 5 1/2". Then I added a mat of  Typed paper to the front of each card.

Next I used some feather dies to cut a heap of feather shapes from offcuts from various papers in the Illustrated Faith Bold and Bright collection kit. I used my Big Shot to do this but you could use a Cameo if you have one or you could cut them out by hand. I then layered these feathers over a Heidi Swapp Dreamy glitter paper frame . Lastly I created some rolled paper flowers from more paper offcuts and added these to the cards in addition to a Heidi Swapp bow embellishment.

Here and Now - With Scrapping Clearly!

Today I have a scrapbook page to share with you made with papers from the Bella Bllvd Illustrated Faith Bright and Brave collection and Heidi Swapp Embellishments - all available in the  Scrapping Clearly Store.
I started with a sheet of white cardstock and added strips of Geared up for Jesus (teal) and Borders paper (black geometric) on to each side.

I then used a stencil (KaiserCraft bubbly mini template) and Faber Castell glass bead glitter gel in a few spots across my page. 
Once this had thoroughly dried I matted my photo on many layers of paper from the Illustrated Faith Bold and Bright collection kit. I then selected a heap of flower shapes and a title from the Heidi Swapp September skies color magic die cut pkt  and painted them a teal colour using my watercolour pan paints

On the RHS of the page I added more papers from the kit and fussy cut 2 of the cassette tape shapes. I then added a title and other elements from the Pink Paislee fancy free collection foam glitter thickers    
I attached the Color Magic flowers while they were still damp - I love how they have curled as they dried and given a 3D effect. finally I added some splatters of Heidi Swapp Teal Color Shine across the page.

Birthday Cards - With Scrapping Clearly!

Today I have 2 cards to share with you made with papers from the Bella Bllvd Illustrated Faith Bright and Brave collection and Heidi Swapp Embellishments - all available in the  Scrapping Clearly Store.
The card bases are 6" x 6" and made from white cardstock . I then added a layer of Illustrated Faith Bible Journalling paper (text) and a layer of Illustrated Faith Count the Ways paper (coloured polka dots). I then added some Heidi Swapp glitter tags , a Heidi Swapp bow embellishment , some Heidi Swapp glitter alphas , Heidi Swapp puffy number stickers , and a handmade sequin pocket.

I made the sequin pocket by sewing 2 pieces of plastic (from pocket page protectors), leaving a small opening to insert the sequins (from the Teresa Collins Daily Stories collection) then sewing the hole closed. The heart was trickier to do - I marked the shape with a pencil first but it was very hard to see on the plastic and it was very slippery to sew - but I like the rustic look :) This is a great way to use up sequins and I love the look! 
For the next card I used a layer of Illustrated Faith Bible Journalling paper (stripes) then attached a strip of the reverse text side to the bottom half of the card. I then added more Heidi Swapp glitter tags, some Heidi Swapp glitter alphas , a Heidi Swapp glitter wood veneer word , and a handmade heart sequin pocket. 
Here is a close up of the sentiment.

Birthday Cards - With Imaginarium Designs!

Today I'm sharing some birthday cards made using lots of gorgeous Imaginarium Designs chipboard.
I started by creating this teal coloured card (in line with the Imaginarium Designs Colour of the month theme) and I loved it so much I thought I would make a set in peacock colours :)

I kept my card relatively simple and used a peacock stencil and ink to create the background layer. I used the same coloured to ink the edges of the chipboard then I also added a sparkly layer of glitter glue around the edges.
I also inked the edges of the cardstock and added more glitter glue. I often assemble my card then add the glitter glue last so it can dry naturally. 
 How pretty is this stencil!
I then tried something similar with the crosses stencil and some crosses. 
Imaginarium Designs chipboard I've used includes 

Happy Birthday: Code IDP0228
crosses stencil : Code IDMM006
