Scrapbook Layout created for Scrapbook Nerd  - ADVENTURE -

Hello everyone!


Today I am sharing with you a new layout created for Scrapbook Nerd using the super cool and beautiful Escape the Ordinary collection from Pinkfresh Studio.

Upon receiving the collection, i was drawn to the Observed paper.  All the triangles gave the idea for this layout, so I used the Geo Globe cut file from the Cut Shoppe to obtain the cut out used in this layout, and backed the spaces with a simple palette of colors and vellum.

I cut a piece of the cut out as i attached it to the layout, and then placed a picture of my kids on our vacation next to it.  I used the same picture as a layer for the picture, and added a few pieces of ephemera around the page.

To continue the triangle look of the page, i folded a small corner of the layout, and used a piece of same paper from the  6x6 paper pad to line it behind the fold. a few more details complete the page:

This page is simple, and modern, and brings all the eye and attention to the picture.   I love it!!  Remember to stop by the Scrapbook Nerd Friends and Fans Facebook page to see what the rest of the DT has been up to.   All the materials used in this page come from Scrapbook Nerd, so check out the store to see what is available in their shelves.

I am a comment away if you need assistance with the how this page came together.


See you all soon!

Magical Moments

Scrapbook Layout created for Maya Road - MAGICAL MOMENTS -

Hello Roadies!

Nathalie with you today!   I  hope you all are doing well, now that the kids are back in school, and hopefully you have more time to get crafty.  

Today, I am bringing you a new layout created using a few Maya Road products and a bit of mixed media.   This month's focus is Kraft products -there are so many beautiful kraft goodies to chose from at the store-, so I tried to incorporate a few small kraft details in my page.

I wanted to create a simple page to document a special moment between my youngest kids, so I set to play with a bit of distress oxide inks and gold modelling past to create a soft background for the page.

Once the page was all ready, a small kraft envelope was placed on the bottom right corner of the page.   A few pieces of ephemera from Maggie Holmes' Carousel collection were then inserted in the envelope.  Using the Geometric Feather die, a few  feathers were cut from one of the papers from the collection, and then inserted in the envelope.  Next a small token from the Snapshot Wood Token set was added to the outside of the envelope, and the small banner sticker -that serves as the title- complete this cluster.

The picture was attached to the opposite side corner of the page.  A small Kraft Post Tag was added behind the picture amongst the cluster of ephemera at the top corner of the picture.  A small piece of Ken Oliver Vintage Trim Seam Binding was then colored with some gouache, tied in to  a bow, and then attached to the kraft tag.

A small cluster was also created at  the bottom corner of the picture using the Geometric Heart, and the With Love Nature Die bundle were used to die cut some pieces from some of the papers in the collection.   A bit of foam adhesive secures the heart to the picture and the layout.  Here is the final layout:

The end look of the page is so simple, colorful and full of textures.  I love it!  Sometimes it takes a few touches here and there to complete the page.  All the MAYA ROAD products added to the page just add to the feeling and look of the page.  I am always a comment away if you need assistance with anything in this layout.

See you all soon!
