Lauren - July 2018 Kit - Unboxing and Junk Journal LIVE

Hey Everyone and welcome to July,

Can you really believe that we are halfway through this year - super crazy how fast it has gone!!

Anyways this month really inspired me, and even before I opened my kit I knew I wanted to make a mini album that will record our trip to Universal Studios in Japan - well the Wizarding World portion of the theme park :)

I thought for a while about what type of mini album I would use or make, and remembered that I also had the wizard world paper and ephemera (made by Colorplay) and knew that I could make a travelers notebook.

As I was trying to find my wizard world paper in my stash I came across other things that would be nice to include, like paper bag, vellum etc and had the idea to make my TN like a junk journal. So the size of a normal TN insert but with variety of items and sizes used as pages within the TN.

So to extend the excitement of the release of the kit, I decided to do a Facebook Live stream. This included unboxing the kit (so all of you could see the goodies but also so I knew what else I was working with haha) and then I got stuck into make the junk journal inspired Travelers notebook whilst chatting to the group.

Was a fun way to slow down and explain my process, my thoughts and opinions about products and how to use them, as well as using thoughts and opinions from those who joined me in the live stream.

You can watch the live stream here, as I uploaded to the FB page once I finished so we could refer back to it and for those who couldn't join me could watch at their leisure.

Along with the Scrapping Fun Kits July 2018 Kit and Wizard World from ColorPlay paper and ephemera, I also added gold glittery tulle, HP book paper (from a damaged book), lined paper, white cardstock, paper bag, the plastic bag that the kit was packed in, vellum, two pieces of patterned paper from stash (brick and black pages), some die cuts I created with free cut files from Paper Issues and I believe that was all of it :)

Here are some of the photos of the junk journal inspired travelers notebook, I did start embellishing on some pages and even added the sequin pocket during the live stream. However I will be adding photos and memorabilia from our visit to Wizarding World section of Japan Universal Studios to complete the TN. So look out for that, as I will share the process and flip through over on my channel later in the month.

thanking you,
Lauren.

Raelene - May Fundraising Kit - Strong

When I was packing for a trip on the Tilt Train with my son for his Rheumatology appointment I knew I would take my TN set up but that I wanted to add all the flat pieces from the May Fundraising Kit to it as so many of the photos I currently am working with are of our EDS journey.

The first photo I chose to scrap was this photo of C having his first trip to the park using his wheelchair.  I journal about how the wheelchair gave him more independence and how important that was.

Having cut my tissue paper into strips made it even easier to scrap on the Tilt Train as those tray tables are very small so the less I needed to to do pull a layout together the better.  The only cutting I did was my photo and I just tore the length of the tissue paper to shorten it.
I had scraps of the gorgeous blue paper from another layout with me so I used one of these as a matte for my photo.  Adding some of the blue butterfly washi to the layers behind the photo.

I repeated things a little on the left with the left over piece of tissue paper and some of the washi and I added the left over piece of the cut file that says strong to that cluster as my title.  Ideally I wanted my titled to be Independence but I had to work with what I had and strong did seam perfect for the photo I was using.

I took some clearer photos once I was home.

I love how the layers turned out on the left, you get to see more of what is hidden behind the photo and it just pulls the layout together.

I love the torn effects of the tissue paper, and the little butterflies on the washi tap.

Amy- Guest designer - May Fundraising Kit -12x12 layout

Hey all,
I am up as guest designer this month and today I have my 1st project to share with you using the May Fundraising Kit. I thought for my 1st project I would show how you could use this kit to document something other then chronic illness. So here I am documenting a rare nice photo of my son and I at at a recent family event, I am actually documenting the strong and unique bond that we share.
I used a distress oxide to colour the word 'strong' cut file and used it as a kind of title. I have also used a variety of the embellishments that came in the kit to embellish my page (aren't they just adorable) and the zebra pattern tissue paper as a matte for my photo.

Morgyn ~ Little Easter Bunnies ~ Easter Moodboard Challenge

Hey Scrappers,

Morgyn here with my take on the latest moodboard challenge over at Scrapping Fun Kits.

This is such a awesome mooboard, mainly because I love purple and of course the adorable billbies.

I decided to use my travellers notebook for this layout, if you haven't given this size a go, do yourself a favour and grab one (you can get this one in the basic's kit) it's really fun to work with.

I knew the perfect photos to document for this layout, my 2 little bunnies from Easter 2017.  Roman was only 5.5 days old and so tiny. I used the purple paper from this months Scrapping Fun Kits Easter kit to mat my photos (it's the same paper as in the moodboard... too perfect 👍)

I designed this little eggy boarder in Silhouette Studio then cut the white part out of cardstock and all the little eggs from some scraps of purple and pink paper (I love finding ways to use up scraps).

*I will leave a link to silhouette file below*

I found a whole sheet of heats in my stash and used them as some little photo accents.  Then added in my title using this super cute puffy alphas, before finishing off the page with a doodle boarder.

Raelene - March Kit - Easter Egg Decorations

I was inspired by a post from Jennifer Dawn to make these cute Easter Egg Decorations with the boys using the papers from the March 2018 Kit.

I have created a Silhouette Cut file for this project due to my hand issues, it cuts 2 large and 2 small from each paper from the kit and is designed for use with 5.5 x 7.5 inch papers.
You can download the cut file here https://www.dropbox.com/s/1it5uoogbewcavv/Easter%20eggs.studio3?dl=0











Fold each egg in half, adhere 1 side together of 2 eggs, adhere some wool or ribbon in the middle, tying a knot at each end of the egg or adding a bead.  Adhere the last 2 eggs to finish the 3D effect.

















This was a quick project that the kids enjoyed working on with me.

There are still a couple of these great kits left so if you would love one head to the Subscription Tab and fill in the form, enter March in the promo code box so I know you want the March Kit.
