Practical Scrappers Ten Things Tuesday - Folded Paper



Happy Tuesday!

Today I am sharing a layout I created of my silly daughter.  She is always making me laugh.  This is for  design team work for Practical Scrappers Ten Things Tuesday and we are all about folded paper and ten ways to use folded paper on your creations.

I chose to create some rosettes with my Silhouette Cameo.





I am loving everything circles these days and I love these papers from Echo Park's Sweet Girl Collection.

Thanks for stopping by and I hope you are inspired to create some rosettes on your next project.  Be sure and see what the other designers on the Ten Things Tuesday Team came up with for folded paper here.

Have a great day!

Sharing A Layout

Happy Saturday! Today I sat down and thought I would just get messy and do a playful, artsy, colourful layout.  There was a photo that was speaking to me to scrapbook of my daughter's girlfriend Kelsi, who is such a sweetheart. I gathered some acrylic paints, mists, stencils, stamps, paper and embellishments and this is what I came up with.


The title is made of vellum and cut with the Silhouette Cameo and then gesso was placed over it and then outlined with a yellow gel pen and a black pen for more definition
I used Tim Holtz stamps with paint and a chicken wire stencil with modeling paste and Heidi Swapp Color Shine Mists to spray over the stencil.

I used a butterfly border punch for the yellow border

The photo is matted with patterned paper and I layered some embellishments along the left side of the photo.

Sometimes it's just nice to create with no plan or sketch.  It was fun and that's all that matters.

Have a great day and thanks for stopping by!
