Soak Up The Sun - With Scrapping Clearly!

Hi Lovelies!!

Today I have a scrapbook page to share with you made using the Fancy Pants Designs "Hello Sunshine" Collection available in the Scrapping Clearly Store.

I'm also playing along with the June Challenge where I've used a rainbow of colours and roughly followed the sketch :) We would love for you to join the challenge and be in the running to win a Scrapping Clearly voucher - you have until June 30 and you enter by uploading your photo to the album in the facebook group here. 

I started with a sheet of white cardstock and applied some Prima Watercolor Confections using a painting with plastic technique.

    

I ended up turning my background up the other way then added some torn strips of paper from the Fancy Pants Designs "Hello Sunshine" Collection kit to the bottom. I matted my photo with more paper from the kit and added a paper doilie. I finished my page with elements from the Ephemera pack and Tags and Labels pack (also in the collection kit).

I also added some elements from the  Heidi Swapp pink puffy number sticker pack.

Here are more closeups.

June Black and White Colour Challenge - With Imaginarium Designs!

The June Colour of the month at Imaginarium Designs chipboard is "Black and White"!!! We would love for you to join in the challenge and create a project using Imaginarium Designs chipboard that is inspired by the colours back and white then send a photo to Jane at sales@imaginariumdesigns.net.au (before 24th June)  and you will be in the running to win a fabulous chipboard prize pack!!

I've created a scrapbook page for this challenge, and I've kept my whole project Black and White only. I've used a photo of me taken in the snow - it definitely was a Magical Moment!

I started with a sheet of white cardstock and swiped black Dylusions paint across in places.

Next I added strips of  paper from the Paper House Productions "ColorWays Noir collection". At this stage I stuck my photo down and then added embellishments around it. 

I coloured my chipboard firstly with a black marker then added a coat of glossy accents. 

Here are a few closeups. I added parts of the chipboard boarder on either side of my photo, then added some flowers and flair.

 

 

In the bottom left corner I added a few flowers and some word stickers from the Tim Holtz Idea-ology small talk sticker book.

Lastly I added some splatters of black paint.

Hello Card - With Jillibean Soup!

Hi Lovelies!!

This month I'm a Guest Designer over at Jillibean Soup!! So Exciting!!

I've created a range of projects using the the Bohemian Brew collection. This last project is a card - "Hello".

I love love love the coordinating stamp set in the Bohemian Brew collection. As soon as I saw it I knew I wanted to make a feature of the vases. I love that there were 3 different shaped vases. I played around with just stamping them and having no colour, through to multiple colours, through to all the same colours. I stamped them onto white cardstock using black Archival ink then used watercolor markers and a watercolour brush to colour them. I kept it simple and tried to add a bit of shading. I then fussy cut to use on my card.  

I've used a 6x6 card blank then adhered a 5¾x5¾ piece of "Unity" paper (with distressed edges). 

Next I added a piece of "Love" paper - this was an offcut so I wasnt particular with the size. Actually the "Love" paper is my most favourite - I think because of the colour. I need to buy some more!! 

Then I added a 4x3 piece of "Bite Size bits". I had actually cut out all the cards on this paper and the reverse side of one of the cards was perfect for this card.

Next I added a "Pea Pod Part" strip and my stamped vases.

Lastly I added more die cuts and a "soup label sticker".

Happy Day Card - With Jillibean Soup!

Hi Lovelies!!

This month I'm a Guest Designer over at Jillibean Soup!! So Exciting!!

I've created a range of projects using the the Bohemian Brew collection. This project is a card - "Happy Day".

I mainly scrapbook but I love to make cards with offcuts of papers. I try and make the cards straight after I've made a scrapbook page and often use similar designs and techniques.

For this card I've started with a 6x6 card blank then taken a piece of 5¼x5¼ white cardstock and used a "painting with plastic" technique to create a watercolor background using watercolor pan paints.

When dry I distressed the edges and adhered it to a 5¾x5¾ piece of "Love" paper (also with distressed edges), then to the card base.

I added a felt flower as a feature of the card, then added flower and heart "pea pod parts" as well as alphas from the "Letter die cuts" pkt and the "happy" soup label  sticker.
