Here We Go (times two)

Hey everyone! I have two layouts to share with you today using the same title.

I figure it doesn't hurt to use a title more than once especially when the layouts are going into separate albums. 

Here is the first page!

I took a vellum envelope from my stash and filled it with some alphas that came in the March Scraptastic kit. I also threw in some sequins from an older kit and some punched circles. I then just started to layer from there using patterned papers, die cuts, tags, stamped images and puffy stickers.

Here are some close ups!

I went ahead and added some foam squares to let the layers pop off the envelope.

I just love all these bright colors on this background paper!

Here is layout number 2!

I kept this page really simple since the title gives such a huge impact. I just added some splatters to the background and a few embellishments here and there. 

I just love that little airplane puffy sticker!

I stamped the word journey onto a label from the kit, added another puffy sticker and a little enamel heart!

Since I took so many photos in the plane I have an insert page to share also...

I just added a block of patterned paper and two stickers to tie in with the 12x12 page. 

Thanks for stopping by!!

Hi everyone! Today I want to share I layout I posted over on the Scraptastic Club Blog using the March Lost In My Mind kit and add on. 

There was a discussion over in the forum talking about using a white background. I know some people are over it or think it's boring but I'm still in love it with. I tend to get stuck when I use a solid bold color as my starting point and if I use a patterned background I find myself using less embellishments on the page. I like to keep the focus on the photo while adding lots of tiny details. 

Here's my page with my white background.

I used three colors of Heidi Swapp mists to add some color to the page. I layered some pretty papers and embellishments, stamped a couple things and I was happy.

I used the Lost In My Mind stamp set and stamped "this" with some Heidi Swapp ink and cut out a couple flowers from a patterned paper to use as embellishments. 

I made a little butterfly embellishment using a wood veneer piece from the kit, a stamp from my stash and a cute wood/enamel dot from the kit. 

So what are your thoughts on a white background? I would love to hear. Are you growing tired of it? For me it's something that is timeless and I'm sure I will continue to use a white page with the occasional patterned background here and there. 

Thanks so much for stopping by!

Sweet.

Hi everyone! Today I'm sharing images of me building a layout. 

I used the lovely Scraptastic kit, add on and stamp set, Feel Again.

I started out by using some white embossing powder to emboss the adorable hearts from the stamp set and hand cut them out. (took forever but worth it!)

I then picked out five different color threads in blues and greens to use for my garlands

I went to use my sewing machine but the hearts are so little it jammed up. Instead I hand stitched each garland which took forever but I ended up liking it more than if I used the sewing machine. It allowed the phrases on the embossed hearts to stand out more :)

I made sure to add a knot at the bottom of each heart so they wouldn't slide around on the thread.

I laid each garland on my page one by one and attached it to the back using washi tape. 

I secured a few of the hearts with some ATG tape so they wouldn't flip around

I picked out just a few embellishments for this page since I really want the garlands to stand out. 

I layered my photo on a piece of tissue paper and layered that on a piece of patterned paper from the kit, clipped it together with a small clothes pin and added a die cut for my title. 

I then stuck my photo cluster to the page with some pop dots

I added a cute rub on from the add on kit underneath my photo and a clear heart to my photo cluster

And here is the finished page!

Thanks so much for stopping by! 

Don't forget to see what all the other DT members are making with their kits over on the Scraptastic blog!

Happy Scrapping!
