November Layout with Want2Scrap Chipboard

Hello everybody! Susie here today and I want to share a fall layout featuring Want2Scrap chipboard for the title. I needed to scrap these great pics of my mom, sister and I enjoying the autumn leaves. I used the Nestled Collection from Authentique Papers. I love all the texture found in the patterned paper - wood grains and knits and plaids - and Want2Scrap has the perfect Chipboard and Bling accents!

November is a Fancy Chipboard Word from Want2Scrap. It is really easy to alter the chipboard with inks, paint, glitter and embossing powder, which is what I chose for this project. I heat embossed it with Earthtone Nutmeg Embossing Powder.

You can see I used multiple layers to create dimension - papers, tags, twine, stickers, bling and even a charm!

Want2Scrap 72 Count Bling comes in a pack with 3 different sizes - 3mm, 6mm and 8mm. I used all 3 sizes of the Amber bling to jazz up this sentiment/quote card:

Thanks for stopping by and I hope you find some time to play today! Susie

Grateful for Want2Scrap Chipboard!

Hello everybody! Susie here today and I am sharing a layout I created featuring Want2Scrap Chipboard! I usied the Nestled Collection from Authentique Paper. I really loved the sentiment printed on one of the cut apart cards:

"It is not happy people who are thankful. It is thankful people who are happy."

The collection has a great assortment of patterned papers that work together to create a really casual, comfortable feel. The colors were perfect for these pictures of my son in his blue jeans! I had a lot of fun creating layers and dimension with papers, stickers and tags.

I added even more dimension with a Chipboard Fence from Want2Scrap. To create an aged look, I dry-brushed the chipboard with gesso and then distressed it with inks.

Finally, I added a piece of the Swirls Finesse bling in the lower right, tucking it under the little pumpkin sticker!

Happy Thanksgiving!

Thanks for stopping by and I hope you find some time to play! Susie

Naked Chipboard from Want2Scrap!

Hello everybody - Susie here today and I am using naked chipboard from Want2Scrap on my layout!

Time really does fly! My baby girl celebrated her 18th birthday yesterday! She has grown into a generous, intelligent, loving, SWEET young lady and I could not be prouder of her! This picture is a favorite that I snapped at our annual trip to the local pumpkin patch. It captures her spirit so well I felt it deserved its own layout! I used the Nestled Collection from Authentique Papers, Prima flowers, and Want2Scrap Chipboard and Bling!

The photo is a standard 4x6 and I printed it with a white border. I created a layered background for the picture using doilies, paper and burlap. I adhered the word "Sweet" directly onto the photo. Although it is really easy to alter the Fancy Chipboard Words from Want2Scrap with inks, paints, glitter, and embossing powders I decided to just leave it "naked" for this layout!

You can see that I crumpled, distressed and inked the paper behind the photo. I created an embellishment cluster using flowers, stickers and Swirls Finesse Le Creme Pearls from Want2Scrap then tucked a tag in the back for hidden journaling.

Just peeking out from behind the flowers you can see the Chipboard Embellishment that I altered using green ink - because not all chipboard should be naked!

The Swirls Finesse Le Creme Pearls come in a 2 pack so I always snip them apart and place them around the layout. Here you can see more pearl bling peeking out from the bottom of the embellishment cluster.
