Go See Do

Hello everyone! Happy Friday! Today I am sharing a travel layout on the Paper House Productions blog of my son and daughter in law who are always on the go travelling.  This layout was to document their first trip to Europe.  Prague was one of their favorite cities to see.


Paper House Productions Supply List
For my layout, I used the Discover The World 12X12 sheet of patterned paper and added a die cut title from Just Nick Digital Cut Files and stitched it down with my sewing machine.  I matted the photos with the Discover Words 12X12 paper and then added some Cameras Puffy Stickers and Travel Cardstock Stickers.

To complete the layout, I added some flair buttons from A Flair For Buttons, alphabet stickers and splatters of Heidi Swapp Colorshine in navy blue.

I really love Paper House Productions high quality stickers and paper.

Have a great day!

Make Your Own Sunshine

Hello friends! Yesterday I blogged about the new design team announcement at Just Nick Digital Cut Files and for the two weeks or so, each design team member will be sharing a layout to introduce themselves.  Here is my layout:


Flowers are one of my favorite things and I was inspired to create a layout with the Doodle Daisy Background.



I painted the white cardstock background with Gelatos, which are creamy tubes of color that remind me of a lipstick tube.  They come in several colors and can be used as is or with water to give a watercolor effect.  For my layout I used a paintbrush, water and three colors of Gelatos.  I then proceeded to add some splatters of Heidi Swapp Colorshine in navy.





After the background was dry, I cut out the Doodle Daisy Background on another piece of white cardstock with my Silhouette Cameo and then backed each negative shaped petal with some pretty plaid papers from a 6X6 paper pad of Perfectly Plaid papers from Lawn Fawn.  For the solid shaped flower petals, I colored the petals with a Gelato and smudged it with my finger.  I didn't have to use water with this technique.


 To embellish the flowers, I added enamel dots, chipboard pieces or a flair button.




 Here is the fabulous cut file I used for my layout.


Be sure and check out all the cut files in the shop because from now until July 4 you can get them for 30% off and there are hundreds to choose from.  Simply use the code July30 at checkout.  


Have a great day!
