Meet Me at the Shore - Layout

Hey Everyone!

Audrey here. I had the privilege of playing with the NEW Summer Porch Collection for this layout. I love the bright and bold colour palette in this collection. To start, I used a dark navy colour from the Summer Porch 12x12 Solids Collection, as my base to frame the main layout. The main is actually the back of the cover page for the Summer Porch 12x12 Paper Collection. I love how 49 and Market don't waste any of their packaging. You can use just about all of it somehow. Whether it be a 12x12 piece of paper, like in this case or some fussy cutting elements and more. 

I trimmed about 1cm from the edge of the main paper so there was a frame of the navy showing. 

I matted my photo on a red from the Solids Collection Pack.

I played with placement of papers and laser cuts, on the main page and once happy I glued them in place. Starting first with papers from the Summer Porch 6x8 Paper Collection for the background. The seagull print is from the 12x12 Collection pack.

Mounting pieces give the page a little more depth.I use foam mount for the window, hot glue for the larger laser cut pieces and pva wet glue for the tinier pieces.

I LOVE  rub on transfers, I do tend to pop them on towards the end of my layouts or creations, adding that finishing touch. I will trim the transfer and even tuck it behind or overlap the design on paper etc. Along with some pieces from Summer Porch Ephemera.

Timeless Album Cover

Hi there, it's been a little while.

I did this one earlier this year and forgot to post on my blog.

Here's another Album from me, using Vintage Artistry Moonlit Garden. It's the most glorious collection. The tones are just perfect. I chose a Create an Album in Landscape for this one. Here's the front cover and spine. 

I covered the inside and outside of the Create an Album - Wide Standard Album Cover - White using Moonlit Garden - 12x12 Collection Pack, papers, sanded the edges to distress a little. The cover is decorated using  a Cluster from the Vintage Artistry - Moonlit Garden - Cluster Kit. Omgosh!! I love using these clusters. Once constructed (which is very easy btw), they make for great additions to any page, album, journal, etc. It makes work quick and easy. 

I added some scrunched Moonlit Garden 6x8 paper, scrunched and sanded to add a slightly aged look along with some laser cut chicken wire to the inside of the cluster frame.Left over leather type cord from Cluster kit, lace wrapped beads with frayed lace to make faux tassels and some Chipboard shapes and Epoxy stickers as trims on the spine of the album.

Vintage Artistry Moonlit Garden - Big Picture Album Kit

Hi there, Audrey here to share a finished Vintage Artistry Moonlit Garden - Big Picture Album Kit.

You get everything you need to complete the 8x8" mini album. The kit is jammed packed with laser cut elements, patterned paper and even a roll of washi tape. It includes the album cover, full colour printed instructions. Follow along or be inspired to do you own thing. I followed the instructions so you can see how it looks.

To begin I constructed the spine hinge piece and glued that in place in the album cover. This way it had time to dry.

Once I'd separated out all the beautiful laser cut pieces, I collated what I needed and put them in groups by page numbers. Included was the patterned paper cut to size for each page. You choose which pattern you use where.

This Album will be a gift so I haven't used photos. I glued all of the frames to white paper (not included in the kit) for photos to be placed in at a later date.

I was very careful not to glue any laser cuts or words where photos will sit. This way the photo can slide behind.

I've put together a video, putting the album together, constructing a couple of pages and a run through of the completed album. Make sure you take a look on the 49 and Market YouTube Channel HERE

Sunburst Album - Presentation Box

Hi there, Audrey here. 

Firstly, if you celebrate Christmas, I'd like to wish you and you family a very safe and Happy Christmas. This is my last post for 2023.

For this post I've covered the outside of the box that the Vintage Artistry Sunburst - Big Picture Album Kit comes in. You may have seen in a previous post I constructed the album. The box comes already lined with an awesome design and I thought if I covered the outside, it not only made a gift box, but a great way to keep the finished album safe and protected. Once finished  the album fits snuggly inside. 

I chose this piece, 'Sun Kissed Memories' from the Vintage Artistry Sunburst - Ephemera Bits as it certainly sums up what the finished album is all about.

The Vintage Artistry Sunburst - Washi Tape Set was a quick way to add colour and effect to the box.

I've put together a video of how I covered the box if you need any tips, make sure you take a look on the 49 and Market YouTube Channel HERE
