Emma's Paperie | Shopaholic

|
I'm sharing a new page on the Emma's Paperie blog today, this time using the Metropolitan Girl line from Carta Bella Paper.   I used lots of fun foam to pop up my elements and give dimension to the page.  I added in a bit of tangled thread and some black ink splatters for additional texture. Shop til you drop, x...

Gossamer Blue | Love You Forever

|
 Well hi, it's time for a new Gossamer Blue layout! I fussy cut this large floral piece from one of the 1 Canoe 2 patterned papers in the January Gossamer Blue Main Kit, then adhered it to this perfect polka dot paper. I love the graphic mix of florals and dots :) I kept the embellishing to a minimum; a few stickers that I added fun foam to for dimension. I used my sewing...

Gossamer Blue | 2017 TN Vol I

|
I made a quick walk-thru of my Traveler's Notebook so far..... I plan to use Gossamer Blue Life Pages and Planner kits, along with a few items from my stash as I need them (doilies, washi, die cuts, etc.). These were die cuts I made with Maya Road geo feather die for another project.  I also added in labels using my Dynamo label maker, and stamps from older GB kits. This page is...

Gossamer Blue | 9 Sweet Months

|
Hi friends!  I have a new layout using the January kits from Gossamer Blue.  There is a mix of products from the new brand, One Canoe Two, and Crate Paper Heart Day. I started the page by cutting the background paper and machine-stitching it back together so both sides of the paper are used.  This is one of my favorite ways to show both sides of a patterned paper. I used tissue...

12x12 Layout | She Blooms

|
In a feeble attempt to get organized, I came across some Illustrated Faith products sitting with some Fancy Pants embellishments.  The colors flowed together quite nicely so I decided to put together a quick page. Photo cred:  Tracy Perrett Photography Of course, after the fact, I see how my sentiment strips are crooked :( I used the Fancy Pants die cuts to embellish, except...

This is 100% a Missy Whidden style layout, I adore Missy's work and credit her with my use of mixed media products on my pages. Some papers and embellishments came from the December Clique Kits, other products were items in my stash. The white gesso helps draw the eye in to the...

Craft Room Tour

|
Hey Everyone! I have some photos of my craft room taken by my friend Tracy!  She came over the other day, set up her fancy lights and took pix so I could share my messy/cluttered/real life craft room with all of you. I have a write-up about my space on the Gossamer Blue blog today. It's not fancy or super organized, but it's all mine and it works so well for me.  My...

Pretty Little Studio | Hey Santa

|
I have so many Christmas photos to scrap! I have a new layout using the Tinsel Town collection over the Pretty Little Studio blog HERE.  Head on over there to read how this page was created. The 9x12 style is so fun to scrap and use, but it makes for awkward photos on my blog, haha!  I love it in person though. Wink-wink, xo...

Gossamer Blue | December Memories 2016

|
I finished my GB DM the other day and filmed a super-quick walk thru video, please check it out below! As I mention in the video, working in a Traveler's Notebook for the first time was a big experiment; I absolutely love this format and will continue some kind of TN in 2017.  I love the size, I love the randomness of it, I love just about everything about TN's! I used a mix of the GB December...
