Lisa - February Kit - Big Sister

Hello everyone !! Welcome to the February Scrapping Fun Embellishment Kit. This month I have done three 12x12 embellishment heavy layouts using this kit, what great value for money. This is my first layout. My second layout "Baby Brother" is very similar using the same photos but a slightly different colour scheme. They will be put in different albums.

I started with a patterned paper background, I chose blue as the contrasting colour to compliment the colours in the photos. I then trimmed about 1.5" off 2 sides of the white paper and affixed it to the patterned paper giving the border effect.  

I wanted to use the hearts patterned paper from the kit in two ways so I cut out the border and then matted the 3x3 photos on what was left. The blue word paper is from my stash. I laid everything down until I was happy with what I had and then glued and taped it all down.

The embellishment cluster is full of lovelies from the Scrapping Fun Kit. The red crotcheted flowers are a design team bonus (aren't we lucky).  I love all the wood veneer features, pink flower and the pressed metal rose, they all go so well together. The title is using some Thickers I got in another kit.

I have used the lovely washi from the Kit to add a little interest in that corner and added a little journalling up the right-hand side.

In the bottom left I have included a little embellishment cluster again using embellishments and washi from the Kit and a tiny word that I made from the patterned paper used under the photos.

I hope you enjoy this layout. This layout has a masculine feel using the red and blue from the Kit and will be put in my Son's alum.  I will be back in a few days using the same kit, similar design but with a different (more girly)feel about it.

Have a nice day !!

Raelene - White with 1 February Challenge

I am so excited to be sponsoring White with 1 for all of 2018.
As a sponsor I get to be a Guest Designer so today I have a layout for you for the White with 1 February Challenge.

There is a cute sketch this month so I printed it and 3 others on a A4 sheet and cut them apart so I can have a little hard copy version to guide me while I scrap.

I knew the Lace Heart from the February 2018 Embellishment Kit was going to be perfect for this sketch so that was one of the first things I pulled out to use.

I then covered my desk in supplies that suited the colour prompt.
Then went through my photos to find one that would suit these supplies.  I chose a photo of my hubby and boys at my BIL and SILs wedding as their wedding colour was this shade of pink choosing this photo helped me downsize my supply selection a little.





Again I found myself pulling supplies from past and future kits including June 2017, December 2017, February 2018 and items from my TN kits and my oops pile I keep for myself.
Only the big piece of pink paper is from my stash, the rest is from my kits.

This Washi from the February 2018  Embellishment Kit was just perfect for this layer in the sketch.  I put it on some white cardstock so the paper and tag underneath wouldn't show through.
It has a pale peach coloured heart on it so I coloured it with a old marker I had in a bright pink colour.

I coloured the paper doily and crocheted doily medalion with a couple of pink inks as I felt the layout needed these to be pink.

This colour prompt was the nudge I needed to record the cute story of my son's being Pageboys and the suit hire shop sending the wrong sized pants for Mr E so he had to wear tracky dacks instead as that was all I had with me after a long tilt train journey.



I have loved creating for this month's White with 1 Challenge and I hope to see you  join me in entering.

Lauren ~ New Year's Eve 8.5x11 scrapbooking layout using January embellishment kit

Hey everyone,

Considering 2017 New Years Eve was one where we actually celebrated rather than staying at home trying to keep awake, I only have 4 random photos. Because we did go out I had plenty to document about us celebrating the new year arriving and of course the lovely January embellishment kit was perfect for this event.

I decided to make a bright and fun journaling layout rather than one that had photos to help tell the story.

I knew when unboxing the kit that there was no way I wouldn't be using the amazing handmade fireworks - so firstly I got my 8.5x11 white cardstock and laid the fireworks on top.

It was now time to utilise the great cards and embellishments in the kit to decorate and tell the story. I cut the spotty tag down to a square and topped it with firework washi, a flair, charm and some sequin stars. A lovely embellishment cluster to draw your eye into the main focus of the page - journaling.

The middle was perfect spot for the journaling card, and I used my sharpie and gold pitt pen to record the memories in summary.

The top right was made for the filler card that says "make memories"

Completing the scrapbooking layout off by purposely but randomly placing sequin stars around the journalling and filler card to accentuate the journaling.

Of course a single line gold border is what totally took the page to another level :) 

Thanking you, Lauren.

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

Morgyn ~ School Kit ~ Week 4 Travellers Notebook

Hi Scrappers, 

Morgyn here with my current weeks planner spread in my handmade Travellers Notebook.  I am using the School embellishment Kit to decorate this week.

I loved the rainbow star washi tape and decided to use that as inspiration for the rest of the spread.  I used them as my check boxes for both of my to-do lists.  I used the alphabet washi tape to make a little boarder above my meal planning section.

On the left side of the spread I labeled all my days of the week and dates in multiple colours - to match the star washi tape.  I used the back to school washi tape to label the first day of school for the year.  I also marked Australia day in green/yellow to keep with my multi-colouled theme.

I loved the cute apple paperclip and used it to mark the current week in my planner.  To the right of the image is all the pretty pens I used on this spread, how pretty is a rainbow of pens? :)

Thanks for stopping by

Morgyn xx

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...

Sarah - January Kit - Happy New Year

Happy 2018 crafty friends! My layout today is in my Traveller's Notebook and it is celebrating how we saw the new year in. I am slightly addicted to the Travellers Notebook size of memory keeping at this time. I just love the ease of how a layout comes together - it doesnt need to be overly complex, and a simple layout can be just as pretty. This layout is using the January embellishment kit from Scrapping Fun Kit - be sure to get in quick if you havent gotten yours already!

I'm sure you will agree, but the handmade firework embellishments are an absolute hit from this kit. Raelene has outdone herself with these. It seemed perfect then when my husband suggested taking the boys to see the NYE fireworks....of course...perfect photo opportunity! Perhaps one of the hardest events to capture, I managed to get a few on camera for this layout. The washi tape, tags and flair are all gorgeous! I hope you enjoyed this layout....until next time!
