Daddy's Boys Layout

Here is a layout I did over the weekend to share with you. I used an a2z title, banner and cog shapes and Basic Grey Periphery collection. A sweet trip down memory lane- my sons' favourite place to sleep was on their dad's lap! I cherish those memories and take pleasure in scrapbooking them!

Mini Album

Hello

Today I want to share with you a very quick and easy project I put together for a birthday present on the weekend.

We were invited to a 2nd birthday party and the invitation said 'Please no presents'. But it hardly feels right turning up empty handed to a kids birthday party. So at about 8pm I decided a mini album could be good, so the parents could put in some favourite pics from the day and perhaps pass on the album once little Mr 2 is old enough to appreciate it.

And let me tell you, it is a good thing this was a quick and easy project to do since my own little miss 3 months decided sleeping was unneccessary that night so I got about an hour and a half to work on the album and that was actually all I needed.

 The album is a Kaisercraft wood album, so pretty much use the pages as templates to cut out your patterned paper, stick it on and embellish as you please. In this case, my embellishments were a combination of Scraplets (of course), American crafts thickers and some collectables die cuts from Kaisercraft. The collection is the Kaisercraft Save the date range, which is designed for parties.

 

Thanks for looking.

Bee Happy with A2Z Scraplets

Hello my dear crafty friends! Irit is here again and this time with my stamped Mixed Media piece made with A2Z Scraplets most gorgeous chipboards.
I call it Bee Happy, also there is no title on this art piece, but you cab see all those bees  around and those happy spring colors and you fell the happiness.

I made this piece using the round frame and a piece of Honeycomb chipboard and  they are covered with embossing powders and even stamped with  some dots over the top. The inside part is my stamped art piece using Visible Image stamps and more  embossing powders and it all about Spring (here it is Spring already)

And now for a final project: the deco was added to my fabric handmade mini album and I also heat embossed this A2Z Happiness title  to match my cover.

Hope I gave you some inspiration  to use A2Z Scraplets for album covers  too. Try it! It's a lot of fun!
See you next time with more chipboard inspiration!
Love
Irit

My take on the SUMMER theme challenge

Yay the weekend is nearly here and that means more scrapping time (in between voting here in Western Australia). After a week of trying to get this layout finished for the challenge ITS FINISHED!!!! Yay me lol.

Now remembering that the March Challenge is the theme: SUMMER and it can be either/both a summer photo and colours......... well here is my layout

As you can see the layout IS about summer with a beach theme and photo but it turned out....vintage??? Well not bright and summer colours. But hey, you gotta go with the flow.

Now for some close ups:

Isn't that fence just AWESOME!!! I used some new Tim Holtzs paint distress stain, distress ink stain on top of that THEN I sprayed a little glimmer mist. The crab I used Viva inka-gold, Lava red. All you do is rub it on. Its a bit like shoe polish.

Did not know at first if this was the right title for the style of layout. But with a bit of paint and mixing colours it fitted perfect.

The chipboard I used was:

Well I hope this inspires you to join the challenge, would love to see your take on it. It ends at the end of the month at midnight, you don't need to use A2Z Scraplets but of course would love to see you use them if you have them.

Thanks for looking
