All Boy | Alex by Bella Blvd | Sassy Scrappers

Hi everyone!
Today I am sharing my 7th layout using the Bella Blvd Alex collection created for Sassy Scrappers!

The background paper I have used is quite busy so I decided to cover it over with some white cardstock but before I did, I used my Cuttlebug to cut out 3 circles. I made sure to cut them out from the very centre of the paper so that I could use the entire paper as a background without anyone knowing its been hacked into!   

I cut more circles from the other papers as well to balance it all out. I used the alphabet stickers from the 12 x 12 sticker sheet to create my title, I decided to place the title following the shape of one of the circles.

I took the Cool Kid wood veneer and backed it with some patterned paper so it didn't get lost on the white cardstock.

A couple more stickers were added as well as some puffy star stickers and a few small wood veneer to further embellish my page! 

Thanks so much for stopping by my blog today!

Happy creating!

Rockstar | Just Nick Studio

Hi everyone!

Today I am sadly sharing my last layout as part of the Just Nick team. It's always sad to say goodbye but its time for some new, fresh ideas and faces! 

This week our theme is to 'Make It Masculine' so I created a layout about my eldest son who thinks he is a rockstar at age 11!

I wanted to use some of the newest cut files just recently added to the Just Nick store...I decided to use the Rockstar title and the treble clef symbol from the Rockstar cut file set and I also used the new Star Background 5!

I used some Bella Blvd products, mostly the Alex collection plus some other bits that I have had for ages! The black puffy star is an Amy Tangerine one and the black and white phrase stickers are by Tim Holtz.

The background is a transparency that I have machine stitched to the white cardstock, I did think about adding some star confetti so it becomes a shaker style layout but I thought it may have ended up looking a little too busy! 

That Rockstar flair is from D-Lish Scraps, a small embellishment store in Australia...I love their flair buttons so much! They always seem to have the perfect ones that suit my boys and my layouts!

Thank you so much for stopping by my blog today! Thank you so much to Nicole and the rest of the Just Nick Studio team for having me as part of the team, I will miss this team so much!

So Very Beautiful | May 2017 Main and Add-On Kits | Hip Kit Club

Hi everyone!

Today I am sharing a new scrapbook layout created for Hip Kit Club using the May 2017 Main and Add-On kits! 

For this week, I was given the 'no white' theme again....now this is not an easy task for me but I am happy with how my layout turned out this week!

I started off by cutting one of the gorgeous May 2017 exclusive cut files from the Little by Little heart paper by Shimelle. I then backed some of the pretty teal cardstock to help ground it a little bit. It did take me a while to work out what background paper to use to adhere the cut file circle too....in the end I decided on the dark grid like paper to help my photos pop a little bit!

I had many photos of my niece that I had taken when she was showing me her new outfit that I had bought for her, so I decided to print them in a filmstrip look to show a bit of a series!

Because her cute little top has a bunny rabbit on it, those little puffy bunny rabbit stickers from the Lovely Day collection by Dear Lizzy were the perfect addition to this layout....especially that one sitting right beside the photos...how cute is it?  I used mostly the Little by Little by Shimelle products included in the May 2017 Hip Kits for this layout since everything co-ordinates so perfectly! 

I don't normally use flowers on my layouts but these ones are just SO pretty and my darling niece is the perfect subject to include them!

Circling the Globe | Just Nick Studio

Hi everyone!

Today I have a new layout to share with you created for Just Nick Studio....recently my family and I went on an AMAZING holiday to the UK and Europe for 4 weeks! Hence I have loads of travel photos!

I decided to enlarge the globe included in the Around the World cut file set and cut it out from vellum, I then machine stitched it to the background paper, the collection I have used is the We R Memory Keepers collection called Jet Set. I really like how the vellum mutes the busy background paper a little bit. 

I also cut the plane and the suitcase from this cut file set to use as embellishments that would tie in with my theme. I reduced the size of the plane a little bit and then cut it from orange cardstock and I cut the suitcase out of some green cardstock I had laying around.

A tag, a few stickers, a flair button and some wood veneer were all added to compliment the theme. I also added some white mist to brighten my layout up a little bit!

Thank you so much for stopping by my blog today! Why not check out the Just Nick store for cut files that may suit your next project? There are loads in store to choose from!

So Hungry | Alex by Bella Blvd | Sassy Scrappers

Hi everyone!
 Today I am sharing another new layout created for Sassy Scrappers using the awesome Alex collection by Bella Blvd! This is the 6th layout I have now created with these awesome products and I still have 1 more to share! I think 7 layouts from a few papers and embellishments is excellent value, don't you?!

When I saw all the food related ephemera pieces in the Alex collection I just knew I had the perfect photo to use on this layout! My 11 year old certainly likes to think with his stomach so this layout is him to a tee! I added lots of the food related die-cuts to compliment my layout plus some of the wood veneer and stickers too!

The black zig zags are from the 12 x 12 sticker sheet, I cut it up into 3 different pieces so that I could place them strategically around my layout! I like how the black really pops against the yellow background! My title is made up of the grey alphabet stickers also included on the 12 x 12 sticker sheet!

So that's all from me today, I hope you found some inspiration from my layout today? Check out this collection plus loads more all available now in the Sassy Scrappers store!

Happy creating!

Fly Away With Me | May 2017 Main and Add-On kits | Hip Kit Club

Hi everyone!

Today I am back sharing my second layout created for Hip Kit Club using the gorgeous May 2017 Main and Add-On kits!

My family and I recently had an AMAZING holiday in the UK and Europe and so this layout documents one of the first photos taken! The boys standing in front of the Departures sign at Sydney Airport!

The exclusive hot air balloon cut file designed by Kim Watson this month is gorgeous and it went perfectly with my theme and the hot air balloon paper by Dear Lizzy that I have also used! I cut the cut file from 2 different coloured cardstocks and also in 2 different sizes! I added some of the Hip Kit Club exclusive ephemera pieces and the Project Life cards as layering pieces. The Chasing Dreams chipboard by Maggie Holmes had that cute bird so I added him as well! 

I really like the colours pink and teal with a touch of navy. I think they look fresh and clean mixed together. My title is made up of the Hip Kit Club exclusive puffy alphabet stickers and those super cute small puffy stickers are also from the Dear Lizzy Lovely Day collection! 

The wood veneer piece is also another Hip Kit Club exclusive for May! So many amazing exclusives included this month and they are all gorgeous!

Thanks so much for stopping by my blog today, make sure to check out Hip Kit Club for all our gorgeous past kits and the new and upcoming ones!

Skate Dude | Bella Blvd Alex | Sassy Scrappers

Hi there everyone!
Today I am back with you today to share a new design team scrapbook layout created for Sassy Scrappers using the Bella Blvd Alex collection!

Whether you have younger or older boys to scrapbook, the Alex collection is so perfect for both! I have a 6 year old and an 11 year old and I have found these to be super easy to create pages using these products! 

My eldest son is currently into skateboarding...we have a ramp not too far from our home so we will often spend an afternoon there! Its also great for my younger son, who just rides his bike around!

I focused on using mainly on the grey, black and blue colours on this layout! The triangles is a cut file I used from Just Nick Studio....I ended up not using the full cut file, I cut some of it up and just used pieces of it. 

Thanks so much for stopping by my blog today....make sure to check out the Sassy store for these products plus much more goodness as well!
Happy creating!
