One More Card using the Gorgeous Belle Kits!

Hello my friends! Cathi back with a final project using my Belle kits! My Blair kits are on the way and I am looking forward to sharing some new papers with you, but aren't these Belle kits amazing? I have gotten so many cards, layouts and planner items from these kits!!

For my base paper I used the gorgeous Grow Wild paper from Cocoa Vanilla Wild at Heart found in the main Scrapbooking Kit (TSK). I layered the pink Patchwork chevron pattern paper from the Pretty Little Kit (PLK) on top and added some stitching.

In this closeup you can see the layering I did. I took the tag and hello stickers from the cardstock stickers in the PLK. The flowers are from the Bits and Pieces Kit (BPK) and the butterflies are fussy cut from the Mariposa paper in the TSK.

To finish off my card I used the chipboard frame sticker from the TSK and added the "my darling" word strip from the BPK.

I hope you like the layout 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.

'happy sweet 16th birthday' - Lydia

Hello Scrappery peeps, Lydia back to finally share another project using the 'Belle' kits. The past few weeks has been crazy with end of semester exams and then a school camp to start the school holidays, and in that process I lost my creative mojo and have been stuck in the ditch trying to get back out of it. But I am back and ready to get the paper and glue back out and to create.

So here is a project a I have been meaning to do a blog post for a few weeks and it is a sweet 16th card I made for one of my friends. I love how this card turned out wit the beautiful florals in the 'Belle' kits.

 

 

I did do a little bit of fussy cutting of the florals but it was worth it because they are gorgeous. I did use doily from my stash as it did need something delicate in the background.



I used the fabric Thickers and I also used one of the Cocoa Vanilla wood veneer words that says 'sweet'. I love the addition of the wood veneer and different font within the alpha's.

And of course to finished the card I added some of the beautiful glittery Cocoa Vanilla Studio enamel dots.

 

So I hope you like this card and I will sure be back very soon to share another project.

I am glad I am back and can't wait to do another blog post.

 

Hope you have a wonderful week ahead.

More Cards with my Belle kit!

Hello! Cathi back again with some more cards from the beautiful Belle kits!!  Our kits come so full of papers and embellishments, I couldn't stop myself from making three more cards!!

"Hello Gorgeous" TN spread with Lisa

Hi there

Lisa here today sharing a Traveller's Notebook spread I have done using the "Belle" kits.

I have scrapped a 3x4 photo of our gorgeous Spoodle "Pepper" we love her to pieces.

I have kept the layout quite simple once again using some gorgeous goodies from Cocoa Vanilla Studios "Wild at Heart" collection from the kits.

I made a crepe paper rosette as a feature on the left side. I just added double sided tape to a 1inch punched circle of paper then roughly folded the crepe paper in a concertina fold & adhered it to the circle. I stapled the centre for extra strength then decorated the centre with some ephemera.

Some more close ups. 

I like to have lots of 3D, layered items in my spreads. Yes, it can make the TN quite chunky 

when its full - but I am okay with that.

(Reminds self there are no rules!)

I love the little squiggle stamp that is one the roller stamp that came in the PL kit! Too cute & adds that last little something.

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

Make sure you check out our kits in the shop!

"US" layout - with Lisa

Hi there, Lisa here today - sharing a layout.

I have scrapped a very rare photo of my husband & I, neither of us like to be in front of the camera. This photo was taken in Kiama N.S.W. - one of our most favourite places.

As I was typing this blog post I realised that this post goes up on our 21st Wedding Anniversary! I can't believe its been that long - where have all the years gone?

I used all the gorgeous "Cocoa Vanilla Studio" - "Wild at Heart" collection that is in the "Belle" kits.

Here is a close up angled shot so you can see some of the layering.

I used the gorgeous vellum as a base on the white card stock & used some of the cut a parts to create a feature in the design.

Some more close ups...I used lots of the goodies from the kit, chipboard stickers, doily, flair, ephemera & rubber pieces.

I hope you have enjoyed my share today, thanks for stopping by.

Make sure you check out our great kits & other items in the shop.

Beautiful You Layout with the Belle Kits

Hello scrappy friends!! Cathi back again with a layout this week!  I absolutely love the Wild at Heart collection by Cocoa Vanilla that the Belle kits are filled with, so beautiful!! I chose a very mixed media paper for my base for this one, a paper called Artisan which is in the main Scrapbooking Kit (TSK).  My daughter recently had one of her vocational ballet exams up in Dublin and her friend snapped this photo on her phone, I think it looks great! I am sure she would point out all her technical faults in her jump, but heck I just see my happy gorgeous girl looking elegant!

In this close up you can see where I have used some of the Peach Kaisermist and mixed it in with some of my modeling paste and used the hearts stencil in the Colour Kit (TCK) to add some texture to the background.  I have used a wreath from the chipboard stickers in the TSK along with the wooden pieces which are also in the main kit.  The rubber embellies, sparkly enamel dots, and flowers are from the Bits and Pieces Kit (BPK).

In this close up you can see more of the chipboard wreath I used from the TSK as well as the ticket and cardstock sticker "perfect" from the Pretty Little Kit (PLK).  I've also tucked in a bit of paper from the TSK as a layer behind the photo.

In my final photo you can see where I have brushed on some of the gold acrylic paint from the TCK to tone in with the paper. The flower ephemera can be found in the PLK, the flowers and enamel dots come from the BPK.  The wood piece and chipboard "you" are both from the TSK.

I really love how this layout turned out, a beautiful photo and beautiful papers and embellishments to compliment it. 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.

Traveller's Notebook spread with Lisa

Hi there

Lisa here today sharing a spread I have done in my Traveller's Notebook - using the "Belle" kits.

You may have seen I have scrapped this photo on a 12x12 layout previously - but I love it & was happy to scrap it again! It's a selfie taken by my daughter & her bestie using a snap chat filter. 

I like to think of my TN as a mini scrapbook or portable memory keeper, I really enjoy creating in it.

Some close ups...

This is the first time I cut in to the gorgeous Navy floral vellum from "Cocoa Vanilla Studio" oh was it hard to do lol....its sooooo pretty! 

The tiny word stickers from the sticker sheet are a perfect element to create a type of journalling, whilst still keeping it clean & simple.

A frame to outline the photo & a flair to finish it off.

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

Make sure you pop over to the shop to check out our kits & other goodies.

'beautiful heart' - Lydia

Hello, hello Scrappery friends. Lydia back to share another layout using the 'Belle' kits. So I have been a little MIA lately due to the amount of school assignments but I am nearly over that hurdle of mid term assessment so I will have some time to scrap as I haven't scrapbooked in over 2-3 weeks.

I do hope you all have a lovely scrapping time last weekend on Inter National Scrapbooking Day/Weekend. And I hope that this weekend all of those precious mums are having a lovely Mothers Day today.

Here is my layout this week using the 'Belle' kits.

Have I mentioned how much I love these kits? These colours just sing to me. I love how this layout features the beautiful Cocoa Vanilla Studio "Oh My Heart" chipboard frames. I also love all the dimension on this layout too.

For the title I used one of the Cocoa Vanilla Studio chipboard stickers and a wood veneer.

 

And as well as the feature of all the frames I added a few embellishment clutters using the ephemera pack. And of course to finish the clusters I used some of the gorgeous glittery Cocoa Vanilla Studio enamel dots. 

   

 

 

I also added my photo behind the beautiful floral frame to make it stand out on the page. I also backed it with one of the gorgeous and delicate doilies. I did add some ephemera around the photo too with some more enamel dots.

 

 

 

I hope you all like this layout and I hop on this Mothers Day you are able to have some scrapping time.

 

Have a lovely day.

Lydia xxx
