off the page projects

i have been waiting to show you these gorgeous boxes for about 2 months now (and is the reason i set the june off the page project challenge)as the scraplets were part of the march release, and im so excited to be able to say our new addition to the family has arrived and i have completed all my baby keepsake boxes. 

i must admit ... i dont think im very creative as i simply cant create without a sketch so even though these arent pages i have used cardablitlies sketches. 

i love these scraplets, they were just so easy to use. they are great for project life and although i dont do project life i love leaving alot of white space on my pages so small scraplets are just perfect for me. 

i have used the months arrows
i put a little gesso on them and then have inked lightly over the top to give that textured effect. 

ok ok so here are my baby keepsake boxes in age order of my babies. 







well i hope that you have a great day
try to get some relaxing scrapping in. 
bye for now

Hi, Deb here with you today. I've been so inspired to create scraplets for so many of our holiday photos although they are suitable for a wide variety of pages. 

I used the border word 'amazing' on this page along with one of the words from the set 'moments, memories'.



I started playing with some textures for these chipboards. Using gesso as the base, I applied it with a spatula to texturize the scraplet before adding paint.


To color the scraplet I used Tim Holtz distress paints in 3 colors, dabbing them on and then spritzing with water to blend lightly. The effect is a stunning and outstanding title.


One of the places we visited was an animal shelter. While these places may not be perfect, they do serve a purpose. The animals here were clean and well cared for and all had been rescued from the wild after accidents which had resulted in them being maimed and unable to fend for themselves.


Again, having fun with the gesso and using it with a stencil to create a background on the paper before building the rest of the page. A variety of techniques were used on the chipboard on this page. The 'lucky you' scraplet was painted white and finished with Rock Candy crackle paint. The background piece 'leaf litter' was painted with a mix of 3 different distress paints.


I love the versatility of these little arrows.


One last one for the day. An older scraplet was used here and the perfect title for the page.


Some of the Scraplets used on the above pages.

Until next time, 
Happy Scrapping

Today I would like to share a layout that I created for Scrapbook Savvy.


I have used this scraplet:

I have used these corner borders:


I love to use the chipboard raw a lot of the time, mixed in with a bit of doodling around the edges.

Here is a close up:


And my last creation is for the sketch at STUCK.


I have used these Cogs:


Here is a couple of close ups:


Again I have left the chipboard raw.
