Morgyn ~ Travellers Notebook Kit ~ Colour Fun Run

Hi Scrappers, Morgyn here sharing my latest layout using the Summer Travellers Notebook kit (and some of the promo kit Raelene had given me) from Scrapping Fun Kits.



I love how perfect this photo is to use with the Summer kit.  Sam had a colour fun run at his school late last year and this was the after photo.  He was given the pair of yellow sunglasses he is wearing, how wonderful is the sunglass paper and sticker to match?


For the left hand side of the spread I used a paper from my promo kit as the pink matched the splatter on the other side.  I used the blue boarder strip down the middle and a piece of the pink/yellow washi tape.  I mounted my photo on a yellow embellishment piece and used the rainbow letters for my title.


On the right side of the layout I used the sunglasses paper for my background, then I cut out the pink 'summer splash' from an embellishment card.  Together with the sunglasses sticker they made a neat embellishment cluster.  For my journalling spot I trimmed down a journal card and used a green boarder sticker to make another little cluster.

This page came together so quickly and easily (it helps that all the kit pieces coordinate together.

Raelene - Summer Moodboard - Sandy Toes

Today I am sharing my layout for the Summer Moodboard.

I used the December Embellishment Kit and some bits from my stash

I started by selecting 2 papers from the December Embellishment Kit and cutting them to fit the the TN pages.
Then I added a border sticker from a upcoming TN Kit to give some extra texture.











Then I added my photo and started embellishing with washi bits from my stash.













I decided to scrap a gorgeous photo of my Mr 11's feet when he was about 2 or 3 years old and we were at the beach.  All electronic storage that the photo was stored on was damaged so I no longer have the dates of the photo and have to guess his age.


I accidentally tore my paper a tiny bit so covered the tear with a flat enamel dot and well I couldn't have just one enamel dot randomly on my layout so I added 5 more on the layout.

I love how the layout turned out, it is very cute and feels very summery even though the photo was taken on a overcast day.

Lauren ~ Traveler's Notebook Selfie - Journal layout


When I was editing the last of the photos for 2017 album I realised that I had a million (well maybe not that much...slight exaggeration haha) Selfies of myself - 2017 was the year I dyed my hair many colours of the rainbow. So I printed them in small card size on selfie with the intention to make a travelers notebook to document the year of the selfie!

Whilst filming my unboxing and how to store my Scrapping Fun TN kit I realised that this would be a perfect kit to use to document January's selfies and got straight into it. (You can check out the video of the unboxing and storage of TN kit here)

So I started by placing the photos down and the embellishments - with the intention to then journal and doodle around them. That is exactly how it went, I cut a doily in half to make big colourful and textured layer behind a photo, the other photo was grounded by a strip of washi. I also used the sticker beach ephemera and cut up cards to fit (the sun, sand and sea), as well as adding the life is better at the beach card as it was.

To complete the layout I used some asterix and dots from the alpha sticker sheet, then journalled and doodled to fill in the white spaces. It was a fun way to do a travelers notebook layout and believe I will be doing similiar again real soon.

Thanking you, Lauren

Sarah's Summer moodboard layout

Hello crafty friends, for this month's moodboard challenge, I loved the colours of the Summer moodboard. I did a Travellers Notebook layout for this one with a cute photo of my younger son showing off wearing his sunnies! Lets have a reminder of what the moodboard looks like;
Most of this layout was completed using the cut apart elements and cards from the December embellishment kit. I matted the photo on a crinkly, dotted paper bag I had in my stash and used a 'Happy Day' yellow frame to highlight his cheeky smile. The washi tape from the December kit is just adorable and is also featured on this layout.
To finish the layout off, I used a date stamp and some sequins to add some bling. I hope you enjoyed this layout. Until next time...

Morgyn ~ Summer Kit ~ Travellers Notebook

Hi Scrappers,
Morgyn here with my latest Travellers Notebook scrapping layout.  I am using the Summer Travellers Notebook kit from Scrapping Fun Kits.
I took this photo of my 2 boys just the other day, while they were having a little paddle in the pool.  It was a super hot day and the temperature had got up to 41 where we live, so the cool water was most welcome for all of us late in the afternoon.


For the left side of the spread I used this green & white polka dot paper as my base - it matched the colour of the pool perfectly.  I added my title using the Alpha stickers from the kit along with a few others from my stash.  My title 'One fish, Two fish, Red fish, Blue fish' is from Dr Seuss which is one of our favourite authors to read with the kiddies.  I thought it was a perfect title for my 2 little fish.

I added some washi tape and embellishments to the bottom corner to finish off this side.


For the Right hand side of the layout I started with some painting the background with some orange/yellow Dylusions paint. Pure Sunshine is the colour name... to perfect for this layout right??
I added the summer paper piece and then my photo.
For the embellishments I used 2 bits of washi tape in the top right corner ('Monday' is from the basic's kit).  The little fish sticker was a great addition to the page and suited the title very well.
I added the date and my journaling to finish off the page.


I love how this little layout came together in about 25 minutes.  Travellers Notebook is the perfect size for documenting the little things quickly and easily, plus the Scrapping Fun Kits are so well coordinated it makes it even easier! Subscribe to get your own here.

I have a process video up on my channel if you would like to see how I put this together.

Lisa - Summer Mood Board - Tag Set


It's time for the summer mood board challenge. Everyone loves summer and this mood board goes to well with the Scrapping Fun December Kit that I have used these embellishments along with items from my stash to make a "Fun in the Sun" tag set.


This tag set is a set of three. I started with all the tags together and did them all at the same time, making them flow from one to the other. My vision is to use them all in the one layout and have photos of my step-son in the pool already picked out.






I started with 4"x3" white cardstock. Trimmed top and bottom with this great summer washi tape from the December Kit. Then I cut the corners at the top of the cardstock on each tag, punched a hole in each and tied some blue raffia from the kit on each.








I have layered some paper in the background and a strip of striped paper from the kit through the middle. Along the bottom, I have used the blue gems from the Kit and then bordered the sides with the crotcheted leaves also from the December Kit. 







Filling the Centre of each tag with Embellishments from both my stash and the kit, I have made a very Summer Inspired tropical themed Tag Set.

I often find myself making tags but never using them in layouts, which is a shame. So, I hope to make my layout using these tags very soon and will update this blog with the finished product.


UPDATE: As promised here is the layout I used the tags on, I also used the Scrapping Fun December Embellishment Kit to do this layout with a couple of papers from my stash.

Morgyn ~ Summer Kit ~ Moodboard

Hi Scrappers, 

Morgyn here with my take on the moodboard challenge (pictures below). You can find all the information on how to enter here.



I have once again gone with a travellers notebook spread for my layout - this is my favourite size to scrap with at the moment. I have used the current Summer kit for my layout .



I used this fun paper as my background piece and added just a couple of embellishments from the summer kit. The t-shirt sticker said Fun in the sun so I cut a sun piece of washi tape from the basics kit and added it to the shirt I also used the number 25 from the basics kit to add the date. 
I really liked the rainbow gradient word from the moodboard and it was inspiration for my title.  The fun multicoloured alpha set that came in the summer TN kit was perfect for this. 



I printed a film strip of 3 photos from our day at Dreamworld making sure to use the photo of Sam eating his giant rainbow ice cream.... just so I could use the super cute Watercolour ice cream washi tape.   Adding in a couple more little embellishments and calling this one done, nice and simple today.

Jarka Ef- Summer Moodboard TN

Hi all!

Jarka here. Today I´m writting about my layout in my Traveller´s notebook. It´s made for our Summer Moodboard challenge. The challenge is for non-standard scrapbooking. See the rules in the Challenge Tab.


I need to say, this was very funny for me to create summer layout, because it´s winter in my country :D

Ok, back to my creation. I used the picture of my son with sunglasses- I just like this picture. He is so cute here. You can watch my process video (turn on the english subtitles), but I like to say something about the pictures now:



Here you can see the finished layout. I searched my box of small cuts of papers and selected some of them to match with our moodboard. And I found some very nice summer stickers. It was my earlier stock.
***



This sticker is just perfect :D I added some enamel dots too. And here you can see also the small bottle with cute pink flowers, which are in the sewn tag. The red background is textured, when you look at it close.
***



Here is the tag. It´s made of small piece of scrapbook paper and vellum paper. This vellum paper is a little bit transparent, so you can see the flowers inside.
***



This one is just to show you this suitcase. Isn´t it nice? I like the detail of it.
***



So, this is it. Wish you nice watching. (EN subtitles available).

Sarah - December Kit - Summer Fun

Hello crafty friends! Sarah here with a Summery layout using the amazing December kit. Again I have completed another page in my 2016 Documenting December 6X8 album with these two photos of my youngest son soaking up the sun on our verandah. While these photos were not planned that way, the poses and 'sunshine smiles' just melt my heart!

For this layout I used the papers included in the December Scrapping Fun Kit - I just love the base paper shown here with all of the text on it. I tore some of the striped paper and layered this underneath. The blue snorkel paper is also so fun and complimented the blue in the photos nicely, so I matted my photos with this paper. The chipboard piece 'Just kicking back' was ideal for this layout.
The cut aparts in this kit are fantastic - I used the Summer Fun and Sunshine Smiles ones for this layout, accompanied by some bling and sequins. I added the glittery number 28 from the Documenting December kit to finish off the layout.
If you havent already got your December kit, they are while stock lasts at the Scrapping Fun Kits etsy site. Until next time....

Lisa - December Kit - Loving Summer

Hello, friends and welcome to my December layout blog. This month's Scrapping Fun Kit is full of bright Summer fun goodness. I love these colours and had the perfect photo for it, taken in the Aussie summer of 1996/97.



I started with a white 12x12 sheet of cardstock and layered some patterned paper I had in my stash across the middle. Then I layered two patterned papers from the kit a little right of centre and placed the photo on top. I haven't matted the photo in this instance as I thought there was enough going on and kind of wanted the photo to blend into the papers.

To the right of the photo, I have used all embellishments from the Kit. The blue diamontes and the "At the Pool" flair. Then in the bottom corner the blue lace flower and the gorgeous pineapple charm, which anchors the ribbon.


 To the left of the photo, I also used all embellishments from the kit. The beautiful frangipanis, sun flare and gold pineapple paper clip.

I am so upset though with the Tombow Mono Glue I have used to adhere the beautiful frangipanis. I guess I made the wrong choice of glue, maybe I should have used a fabric glue 😞

Across the top, I used the funky pineapple washi trimmed with the thinner blue patterned washi and the die cut printables like neon signs.

The Title is some lettering I had in my stash from Kmart and Reject Shop.
I have used the yummy ice cream washi across the bottom of the page also trimmed with the thinner blue patterned washi.

The ribbons from the kit have been used to embellish the bottom of the photo and to connect the right and left side embellishments.



Except for the glue fiasco on the Frangipani's I really love this layout and all its colourful summery goodness.

Lauren ~~ Summer Moodboard Challenge using the December Embellishment Kit

Hey Hey everyone,

Welcome back to another fun bright layout made with December Embellishment Kit.


this one is inspired by the moodboard picture >>>>

I loved the bright stripe looking colours up the top and it made me think of this stripey paper in the kit.

To add interest I attached to the 6x12 layout on an angle and used the excess that was cut off as corner pieces - making the background complete. This draws you eye from top to bottom of the layout.

The selfie was the other part of my inspiration - the flowers in my hair immediately called for some of the lovely 3D flowers that are in the kit and thats how the layout started.

I added the flower and the crotched leaf to top embellishment cluster on the photo. Backed the photo slightly with a torn card from a previous layout and wella!

Finishing the page off with a diecut (this is also the title) and some blue bling, a metal blue rose and a sequin. 

Looking at it then, I thought was missing something and was a little while before I realised it needed a border around the middle/photo cluster - so blue sharpie did the trick.

Here is the completed 6x12 layout. 








Thanks for visiting, check out the kits and join up to a subscription to ensure you get your hands on this awesome goodies.

Lauren.

Lauren - December Kit - Nothing But Blue Skies




Nothing But Blue Skies.........

This beautiful bright December embellishment kit made it easy to create!

I started with that green spotty paper - its such a lovely shade of green.

A 4x6 bordered photo sat perfectly on top, and then having the embellishment kit sitting out looking pretty made it easy to choose items to embellish the 6x12 layout. 

Ripped a filler card in half and poked it in the top left of the photo (it says Nothing but blue skies.... (perfect phrase for this photo))

Ribbon and blue Twine wrapped around the layout beneath the photo - it is taped with washi to the back of the layout. 

Made a fishtail banner on the "sunshine smiles" banner and tucked it in beneath the ribbon. I then used tab punch to punch out a tab from the rest of the filler card from the top.

FInished off with a sprinkling of flowers (both metal and paper/plastic ones) and the sequins, the perfect match to the whole layout.

Thanking you, Lauren
