'SNAP' - Lydia

Good morning scrappy friends. I hope you are all having a wonderful weekend and that you have all received your new "Olivia" kits.

Today I am sharing another 12x12 layout using the last kit called "Willow". I love this kit as it has such bright fun colours. So here is my layout, featuring some hexagons.

 

 

 

These Thinkers in the "Willow" kit are stunning, I love them so much. They are just perfect to give the layout a little bit of sparkle.

 

 

I had a lot of fun picking out the patterned paper for the hexagons. Once I had worked out the placement of each one I picked a few to hand stitch around with just some white embroidery thread.

 

 

Of course I made some clusters around the layout. This cluster below has some thin embroidery thread as well as one of the pretty charms from the 'Good Vibes' Crate Paper collection which is feature in these kits, some enamel dots and that gorgeous bird ephemera from the ephemera pack. It's the bird the cutest?

 

 

I used the stamp set from the "Good Vibes" collection that is in the kit as well to add a bit of a feature to where there was some plain space on the layout. And I love that typewriter font too.

 

 

And another little cluster.

 

 

 

Overall I had some fun making this layout and I hope you are inspired to finish the weekend with some creative time.

 

Have a great day Lydia xxx

 

 

Cute tags created with the "Willow" kit

Hi there 

Lisa here today to share a fun project using the "Willow" kits,

There were so many cute elements in these kits - I thought I'd have a go at making some tags.

It's a great project to do if you're lacking a bit of mojo. You don't really need a plan - just the supplies to hand, then it all seems to come together.

Once I had started the first one my creativity just kept flowing. These tags will make a good addition to my stash for gifts or happy mail.

I used some die cut tags from the die cut 12x12 page and I cut some of my own tags from the patterned paper.

I used various elements to decorate them, stickers, ephemera, washi tape, cork stars, bling - all from the kits & I punched some shapes with scraps.

Some close ups of the detail...

More close ups...

Thanks so much for stopping by, I hep you've enjoyed my share. Pop over to the shop to check out our kits & other goodies available.

'magic' - Lydia

Good morning beautiful creative people, Lydia back finally to share another project. It's been a long time! It's been a crazy start to the year and getting used to grade 12 and all that it has install for me this year, including the huge workload that has taken weeks to get used to. But I am finally on top and ready to get fully organised and start creating and sharing again.

What better way to start sharing again with the brand new 'Olivia' kits. These kits are so sunning filled with the beautiful pastel colours of the new Cocoa Vanilla Studio collection 'More Than Words'.

So today I am sharing my first creation of a 12x12 layout using these kits.

 

I always find it so easy to create using colours and elements that I love. So working with the pinks, blues and butterflies this layout came together quite quick.

 

For this layout I did go for a more minimalistic style using the vellum black and white florals with the pops of pinks and corals from the butterflies. I also love the contrast from the greys to the bold black of those gorgeous Thickers. 

 

 

Of course I had to add some dimension using these KaiserCraft florals as a cluster under the photo.

 

 

On the opposite bottom side of the image to the KiaserCraft florals, I added a few pieces of ephemera from the ephemera pack as well as a ever beautiful flair from the collection. I also added some enamel dots/hearts around the whole layout too.

 

 

Over the whole layout are fussy cut butterflies from one of the 12x12 papers. I paired the butterflies with some of the vellum florals. I love how they are give the feeling that they are fling around the page.

 

 

 

And that is my first project using these kits. My fingers are crossed that you all receive your kits very soon to be able to start creating with such beautiful products.

 

Have a great Sunday.

Lydia xxx



 

 

 





12 x 12 Scrapbook Layout using the "Willow" kits

Hi there 

Lisa here today to share a layout using the "Willow" kits.

These kits are certainly one of my faves with all the gorgeous Crate Paper "Good Vibes" collection.

The pom pom trim frames & the super fun embellishments are perfect for these snap chat photos.

Using layers of tags & frames angled is a great way to draw attention to your photos while still keeping everything cohesive - so it doesn't look out of place.

Here are some close up of the detail...I punched some tiny hearts out of the patterned paper - which went really well with the spray of gems.

Thanks for stopping by, I hope you've enjoyed my share.

Make sure you pop over to the shop to check out or subscription options & other items available to purchase.

Off the Page Project with the Willow Kits!

Hello again my crafty friends! Cathi back again with an Off the Page project featuring the Color Kit (TCK) and all the other gorgeous Willow kits!  I haven't played with my mixed media goodies in a while and it felt great to work on a project featuring layers and layers of goodies from the Willow Kits and their gorgeous TCK.   Wondering what the final project is?  It is a gorgeous key organizer that I have had laying around for a while to upcycle!

The paint color on the frame ties in perfectly with the Willow Kit colors and I can't wait to have my husband help me get it up on the wall this week!!

In my first closeup you can see all the layers of paper and media I used on this project! I used the dot stamp from the TCK here with my Shabby Shutters Distress Ink. I also layered the Kaisercraft Abstract Triangles stencil that was in the TCK using the Worn Lipstick Distress Ink in my collection. On top of the background paper I layered many of the ephemera from the TSK as well as the cardstock stickers from the Pretty Little Kit (PLK).  

I have used the Moroccan Tile stencil included with the birthday gifts we received with the Willow kits and used the Faber Castell gold Texture Luxe from the TCK. The gold doily is from the Pretty Little Pieces bag in the TSK.

The pompom frame can be found in the Bits and Pieces Kit (BPK) and that gorgeous Yay charm in the the TSK along with the pink rhinestones.

I love how my Key Organizer project turned out, it has been too long since I played with my mixed media goodies!. I hope you like the project I have made for this week! These kits are so full of goodness and can work with so many different types of projects! I hope that you will come and have a look at the kits and consider subscribing!!  You can find the subscriptions HERE.  I'll be back next week with another project!
