Beachy - 49 & Market

Hello!

It's a cold, grey day here in Christchurch as I write this blog, with snow falling further down south. One wouldn't think we are in spring right now. So how about a beach layout to remind us that summer is not far away? I have used the Summer Porch Collection for my layout.

I started with the dark blue and red papers from the Summer Porch 12x12 solids pack, tearing and distressing the edge of the dark blue paper (Paper 4) and adhering on top of the red solid paper (Paper 3). I then tore down the Summer Porch Splendor paper from the 12x12 Collection paper pack, and adhered this to the blue and red paper. I matted my photo with frames from the land lasercuts and the Ephemera pack and adhered this to the page with foam tape.

I then used a mix of both rubon transfers - the blendables and the essentials pack around my photo. I cut the piece with the sail boat so it worked into my layout - I love how this worked out on the page.

I have used laser cuts from both the land and sea pack - the knots have been cut so that I was able to add these on top and below my photo. I also added some tickets from the Ephemera pack. I added the flowers, leaves and the boat in layers using foam tape to create dimension.

Thank you for visiting the blog today. Below is the list of products that I have used on this page,

Hugs,

Michelle

Delightful - 49 & Market

Hello lovelies

I have a new favourite collection - the Vintage Orchard Collection. It must have something to do with the colours - such beautiful warm tones - and I absolutely love the wildflower lasercuts in this collection. Here is my layout created with this gorgeous new range:

I have used the reverse side of the Vintage Orchard paper Apple Delight from the paper collection pack as my base for the layout. The top paper is the the bonus sheet behind the cover of the 12 x 12 solid paper collection, which I have torn down and then adhered to the Apple Delight paper. I have layered the Stacked Frames on top of the photo, then added the film strips (which I cut in half to be able to stick out the top and bottom of my framed photo) from the Acetate assortment pack. I also distressed the edges of the frames, before adhering to the paper with foam tape.

I then layered ephemera and laser cuts (from both the Wildflower pack and the Elements pack) to the top left corner with foam tape for dimension and also added some Ivory Royal Spray flowers. I did the same at the bottom right corner - how cute is that scarecrow and the barrow?

I then cut ½" strips from the washi tape sheet and added these to the top and bottom of the layout. Once I was done I added rubons from the Essentials rubon pack around my layers.
