Want2Scrap and Quick Quotes Inspiration Week Continues!

Hello and welcome!  Susie here today to share a layout I created by combining a chipboard quote from Want2Scrap with the Honeycomb Collection from Quick Quotes!  These papers have the perfect colors for scrapping your fall pictures - oranges, blues, greens and creamy off white!  I had to use them to scrap this picture of my daughter's first trip to the pumpkin patch!

I started by typing my journaling straight onto the page then began distressing, inking and layering the papers.  I used Quick Quotes PowderPuff Chalking Inks to lightly stamp some falling leaves on the background.

Here's a close-up. You can see I used more than one color for the stamped images before adding a die cut leaf cut from the bright orange paper in the collection.

I created an oversized photo mat from the patterned paper to really frame that precious photo.

Creating the title using a chipboard quote from Want2Scrap was the easiest part!  I love the rustic feel you get from the natural chipboard but I wanted a slightly different color. I used clear embossing powder to make the color a bit richer and then added it to my page as the perfect finishing touch!

Want2Scrap and Quick Quotes Inspiration Week

Hello friends - it is Linda here with a little change of pace for me today - I have just started an Art Journal and am excited to be able to share it with you today - well 2 pages anyway - it is still a Work in Progress..., I am excited to be using products from both Want2Scrap and one of our very generous Preferred Partners - Quick Quotes Scrapbook Company.  Both companies have come together to have an inspiration week - how much fun is that!!

I have have used recycled card stock to make my journal - I love to be able to recycle and create something I love with it - win:win

Page 1 has been created using both designer paper and chipboard embellishments - I love the way they co-ordinate and make the thinking process so easy.  I have cut the Seth Apter Citrus Slice in half and adhered them to opposite sides of the page.  They been outlined using Nestabling Heart Circles - Black Rhinestones - which have also been cut in half.  

The tickets are from the Earth Wind and Fire Chipboard Die Cuts and fit the theme perfectly.  I have to be honest and say that it really came together so easily - and we love that - don't we!!  

Page 2 has been created using the Negative Die from the Seth Apter Citrus Slice to frame the Vellum Quote.  I have used the excess bling from the Nestabling Heart Circles - Black Rhinestones to embellish the inside of the Die cut frame.  The butterfly has been stamped, coloured and layered onto the top of the page using Beacon Adhesive Zip Dry Glue and a 72 Count - Amber Rhinestones - Self Adhesive to the center of the butterfly.

I have created Faux Washi Tape from offcuts of the Earth Wind and Fire paper. I have also recycled a portion of an old measuring tape and added it to both pages...not much wasted here!!

Watch the Killer Whales Overlay!

Susie here with a layout about a Killer Whale Watch excursion I enjoyed with my family last year. It features a laser cut overlay from Want2Scrap and one of the Chipboard Quotations!  This outing was one of the highlights of our trip to Alaska and the Whale 12x12 overlay was the perfect start to my scrapbook page!

The Whales Overlay comes with a white background paper.  The first thing I did was to adhere the laser cut outs of the whales to the white paper. Then I took out my craft knife and carefully trimmed around the outside edge of the whales and discarded the rest.

 

The first photo I added was one of a whale breaching! I used 1/8" "Tear-ific" Tape from Sparkle N Sprinkle on the backside of the frame to adhere the photo in place.

I chose this photo-realistic paper of the ocean to back the overlay.  It came with a double white border printed along the outer edge - such a nice detail!

I decided to accent that detail by trimming down the outside of the overlay so that it fit perfectly inside the border!  (I will admit that I purposely lined up the horizon line of my photo with the horizon in the paper!)

I heat embossed "The Best Day Ever" Chipboard Quotation with Red Glitter Embossing Powder.  It picked up the red from my pictures and really made the perfect title!

I take a lot of pictures so I often create multi photo collages on my layouts. I print my photos with a white border.  If you are unable to do that and want to get the same look, just double mat them with both white and black cardstock. I just play with the placement of the pics until I find an arrangement that works for me!

Suprise!  That center photo flips up to reveal one more picture

Dog Chipboard Embellishments

Candy here and today I want to share with you a couple techniques to create beautiful dog chipboard embellishments for your projects.  I created this adorable dog scene using Want2Scrap's Dog Chipboard Embellishment, a Doghouse Chipboard Shape, and a Fence Chipboard Embellishment.

To create the the Doghouse, using a pencil I traced around the different sections of the Doghouse on the design paper and scissor cut out the sections. I adhered the design paper sections to the chipboard with Dries Clear Adhesive.  To get an even more precise edge I then used a nail file along the edges of the Chipboard Doghouse.  I sponged Old Paper Distress Ink along the edges and inside the opening of the Doghouse to create depth and shading.  I then adhered the striped beige design paper to the back of the Chipboard Doghouse to cover the opening.

I heat embossed the Chipboard Dog and Chipboard Fence.  Before I started I covered each piece with Gesso.  For the Chipboard Fence I covered it with Clear Emboss It Ink and then added Weathered White Embossing Powder.  I tapped off the excess and heat set it.  To create the Chipboard Dog I covered it in Tree Branch Wendy Vecchi Archival Ink and added the coordinating Tree Branch Embossing Powder.  I tapped of the excess and heat set it.  Embossing chipboard creates a beautifully covered surface.

This scene I created is now ready to be added to a scrapbook page!

Senior Year Overlay

Susie here today and I am sharing a fun layout I created using the Want2Scrap Senior Year Overlay.

The overlay is designed so that there is a collage area all ready for your pictures.

I used the overlay as a guide to cut pictures to the right size and shape:.

I flipped it over and added 1/8" Double Sided "Tear-ific" Tape around the edges...

... and then pulled up the liner and adhered the photo.

I added the photos one at a time.  I had a lot of photos so I was able to completely fill in the collage.  If you don't have enough pics, you can fill in the open segments with coordinating patterned paper.

Then I  adhered the main photo and edged it with Sleek Strip 6" Rhinestones in black.
