Untitled layout of my brother

Hello my lovely creative beauties. 

I have been rather quiet due to studies but I am slowly trying to find a routine to include some scrapbooking time. I have found it is something I miss terribly when I don't get to play with papers and paints. 

Today I am sharing a layout I did of some photos of my brother taken by a good friend. 

I had no chip board to mount the final layout of to which unfortunately meant that the piece is a bit curly.

I used more paints and sprays and texture pastes than I have used in a long time. 

I found a few embellishments in my stash that I felt works rather nice in the over all feel. As the photos were a lovely high contrast, I opted for a complimentary high contrasting orange over the black crackle in the back ground. 

Cookie Monster

Scrappers!

I found a working Cookie Monster at Savers and op shop recently and was SO excited! 

Naturally I had to do a layout to add to my kids folder. 

Midori Fauxdori Insert assembly.

Midori Traveler Notebook enthusiasts I thought I would show you all how I go about making inserts/booklets for my Travelers Notebook size Midori.

So these are the 12x12 size digital papers of my collections that have been printed on A4 size paper. The cover was printed on 200gsm paper stock and the rest of the booklet is printed on 80gsm on both sizes.

Here is the Cafe Au Lait collection Booklet/insert

Here it is in the Fauxdori I have available in my webstore.

This is the same format but done using the Forgotten Meadows collection which comes up really pretty.

 

Here it is in the Fauxdori I have available in my webstore.

Both inserts added to the Fauxdori using the expansion band that comes with the single string fauxdori.

Now to see how I put the booklets together. 

Cafe au Lait: Layout "Mischief"

Well Hello all, great to see you back again.

I have been very busy with this new collection, really loving it and I hope you are as well.

This layout is of a friend, and the title is very fitting. There's mischief in those eyes. He is a big kid and revels in the that fact, be he is very kind and caring man at the same time.



I have used the 12x12 Cafe au Lait collection for this layout which was printed on 80gsm and really held up to the texture paste and spray that I threw at it. The page I used that first glued to a cardstock backing to fill it out to the 12x12.

The "Mischief" title was cut using my cameo, love that thing but i just don't use it enough. I covered the title in some glossy accents for the final effect. The circles and compass rose are from Creative Embellishments which I just love. Adding the Keyhole just broke those circles up a little. All the papers behind the photo are from the cut and create page of the collection which are included in the Digital Paper Pack.

Please remember to leave any questions or comments below and happy crafting.
