Child's Play

This is a layout I made using another NEW paper from American Crafts.  The paper is Bailey's Brush from the Amy Tangerine line.  You will find some other goodies in this layout...it's in the deatails.  :)

I love all of these different little elements together.  Very youthful!

These are Thickers by American Crafts.

One side of the paper has all of these little leafy designs.  I cut them out and used them to embellish the paper and also pop-dotted all of the black and white ones.  Gotta pop dot something!

My favorite embellishment is the mini hanger and banner flag --both by Maya Road.  I used my jewelry making tools to pry the hanger apart and then I ran the banner through and clasped the hanger back together.  A must try!

Thanks for looking!

Get your scissors ready!

As I mentioned in an earlier post, I am an intricate cutter and there's lots of cutting involved in this layout.  These papers are also by American Crafts from the Amy Tangerine line.  The papers I used were Sienna Spirit as the 12x12 base and Paige's Portraits for embellishing...both shown below from left to right.

I created my own frame around this 5x7 by cutting out the half circle/swirly designs from one side of Paige's Portraits.

I then cut several frames out from Paige's Portraits and used them to embellish the page.  I put pictures in or behind some of them.

I also added these gorgeous glittery thickers by American Crafts.

And I thought this cute little owl would look good in a frame too.

Thanks for looking!

Birthday Layout

In this layout I used new paper by American Crafts –this set by Amy Tangerine.  I know you’re wondering which ones so for your information, I used Gaby’s Gallery to mat the photo and Indigo Inspiration as the 12x12 base (paper shown below from left to right).  Aren’t these super fun colors!

The embellishments in the kits I received were not packaged so I’m not sure who makes this beautiful flower –likely Prima.  As for the number two, I took a piece of chipboard, covered it with Gaby’s Gallery and then wrapped this fuzzy string around it.  Again, not sure who makes that either.

I have to make at least ONE thing pop on my page so I pop dotted these clouds.

And finally I added this little die cut tag which I believe is part of this new line.  These flowers are likely by Prima.  Notice I also put lace trim on the edge of Bryn’s dress.

In case you haven’t noticed, I’m a very simple scrapbooker.  But I really dig the way this page turned out –hope you like it too!
