Beautiful Moments

Hop on over to 49 and Market's blog and see all the inspiring creations the design team has put together. It was my turn recently and I got to play with the soft tones of Vintage Artistry in Colour - Coral. 

While your there checking things out, you've got to see the two NEW Collections 49 and Market have just released.... OMGiddy aunt!!

Here a little taste,,,,

 Vintage Artistry Colour - Butter

  

Vintage Artistry Colour - Lilac

   

 

Can't wait to get my hands on these delicious colours and all the goodies to go with them.

Here's my layout using Vintage Artistry in Colour - Coral

How could I not of used this the Coral collection!! The tones match perfectly with the lace dress Cadence is wearing. 

I like using white cardstock for most of my layout and if using chipboard pieces, 99% of the time it will be white also. I used Vintage Artistry Coral - Je t'aime as my base page and then white card. Then ripped and layered the other patterned papers for the front. I absolutely love the 6x6 pads. That piece, centre front is from the pad,  Perfect little designs of the bigger sheets. 

  

The designs from the Layered Embellishment sheet - Wander,  with it's collection of succulents and blossoms works really well with the tangerine in the flowers. It's one of my favourite sheets. 

The little wish bubbles on the sheet are just the cutest. They look like little glittery paint splashes on your page, with out having to get the paint out. Did you know you can buy a full sheet of bubbles. Wishing Bubbles come in lots of colours to match most of the paper 49 and Market design. Very clever I think.

Pink Hair, Don't Care

Hi there. Hopefully this post finds you well and getting some creating time for yourself during these crazy times for all of us. 

Another layout of my little muse, Cadence my granddaughter. Normally a little blonde haired girl but on the day of these photos her mum let her put a temporary hair colour in her hair. 

I wanted to create a fun layout and it had to be a pink! When searching my stash of  49 and Market papers I found this one in my Bold and Beautiful Collection and the wreath from the Wild Things Layered Embellishment sheet made all that pink, pop just that little bit more.

You can see this and lots more inspiration on the 49 and Market Blog Here

Try tucking in a little gauze to soften the look of flowers and leaves. To give an ombre look to your lettering sponge paint or ink half way up the letter using a little sponge.

Believe in Magic

A layout inspired by my granddaughter's obsession with the movie Frozen. The photo is from about 4 years ago. She wore that dress until it was threadbare. Even now as I type, in my head I'm singing 'Let it Gooooo! Let it Go!!!'. I bet you are now too, lol! This layout will go along side other layouts of her during her 'Frozen' obsession.

Once I'd decided on the 49 and Market Vintage Artistry Sky - Admit One paper I searched through my stash of flowers and was pleasantly surprised to find the green tone of the Botanical blend - Sage  flowers looked really good with the tones in the paper. As I did so I could hear my grandmother's voice saying 'Blue and Green should never be seen,,,,' but maybe because there's a couple of shades of green it works okay I think. 

To achieve the messy thread through the flowers. I unwound a long piece of the silver thread from the reel but didn't cut it until I felt I had the look I was going for. I caught and glued bits of the thread as I glued the flowers down.

Love you to the Beach and Back

My turn again on the  49 and Market  blog. I love this piece of patterned paper Discovery Cove, it's from the Shipwreck Collection by 49 and Market and have been waiting for the right photo to go with it. 

I was lucky enough to get a new photo printer and the software enable me to print smaller photos on one sheet of 6x4 photo paper. So this is a fun, quick layout for me and I really enjoyed doing it. 

Don't you just love the distressed look to such a bright and fun stripe. Those little cracks on its pattern, I love the look to it. 

 The photos are of my granddaughter and her little dog Daisy. I thought it fitting to use the daisies from the Wild Things Embellishment Sheet, just for her. 

Add a little depth to your page by layering laser cuts. Try using a stylus tool to put a curve to the shapes from behind so they don't lie too flat. Use mounting tape, liquid scrap dots or even scrap chippy for height.

I like to mat most of my photos and on this page I chose to add a coloured mat behind the photo to make the blue on the patterned paper pop! 

To attach the tiny micro beads to the page I made a puddle of pva glue where I wanted the beads to sit. Pour the beads over the glue and carefully tap off the excess beads.
