Paper Issues Fall Crop - Photo Booth challenge

Hi everyone,

Yes, I'm still sharing layouts that I have made for the Paper Issues Fall Crop. My mojo was flowing and was lucky enough to be able to make a lot of layouts. This one is for the Photo Booth challenge, which is about selfies and I have a lot of those, mostly with Blink in it too.

I created my rainbow background with Distress Oxide Inks and the amazing Altenew Over the Rainbow stencil. All papers and embellishments are from the Vicki Boutin Let's Wander collection.

I made this layout during a Facebook LIVE, you can watch it here if you missed it.

Thank you for stopping by and have a great day!

Paper Issues Fall Crop - Silly String challenge

Hi everyone!

The layout I'm sharing today is for the Paper Issues Fall Crop Silly String challenge. I don't use a lot of twine or ribbons on my pages, but it worked out perfectly that the September kit had some pom pom string in it, so I went with that kit. The papers and embellishments in this kit are from the Jen Hadfield The Avenue collection and Altenew wood veneers. For the background I used Distress Oxide Inks Crackling Campfire, Wild Honey and Seedless Preserves.

This layout is a scraplift of one of Kelly Feldman's fabulous pages.

Paper Issues - Birds of a Feather

Hi everyone!

Today I'm back with another layout using the Gel Press gel plates along with Distress Oxide Inks. This time I used the triangle plate. The papers and embellishments are from Studio Tekturek Strawberry Shake, the colors in this collection go perfectly with the Oxide colors Picked Raspberry, Wild Honey and Peacock Feathers. I also used the Elle's Studio Everyday Tab Dies on a gel printed piece of paper, to create printed tabs. I stamped the Elle's Studio Everyday stamps randomly on my page, as well as on the tabs.

Paper Issues Birthday Crop - Face Painting

Hi everyone!

We hope you're all enjoying the Paper Issues Birthday Crop! Paper Issues turned 10 and we have 10 challenges for you to play along with over here in our Facebook group. I have done three LIVES during the weekend and today I'm sharing the layout I made during the first one on Friday morning. If you missed it, you can watch the replay here.

Because the Face Painting challenge is all about mixed media, I took out my Gel Press gel plates again and went messing around with Distress Oxide Inks. For this layout I used Mowed Lawn and Blueprint Sketch. I also used the Tim Holtz Layered Plaid stencil and an older Vicki Boutin Leave stencil.

All papers and embellishments are from the September kit with Pebbles Inc Jen Hadfield The Avenue.

We can't wait to see your takes on the Birthday Crop challenges, so link them up!

Thank you for stopping by and have a great day!

Paper Issues - Cos-tomb Parade

Hi everyone!

Today I'm sharing a layout for the Paper Issues Cos-tomb Parade challenge. This challenge is all about Halloween, which is something I didn't grow up with but now that I live on an island where it is a thing....I had to give in and get Blink a costume :-)

I got her the Child's Play Chucky outfit and I'm lucky she's such a good sport! I'm just cracking up when she runs around with it.

For my layout I used Elle's Studio Autumn Days papers, Cozy Chipboard Stickers, Stitched Hearts Wood Veneer, Navy Acetate Alpha and some older Elle's Studio wood veneer pieces and puffy stickers.

I created the background by stamping a jar lid with Distress Oxide Ink Carved Pumpkin and splattering this same color with a brush. The wreath is a stencil from Altenew that I used with Bundled Sage and Speckled Egg. To finish the background I used some Kaisercraft texture stamps with black ink.

Thank you for stopping by and have a great day!

Christmas Cards

Hi everyone!

It's already that time of the year to start making your Christmas cards. Especially since I sell my cards and shipping from here could be crazy, I like to have my cards in the shop early!

Below you'll find the cards I have made so far. They are all made with Lawn Fawn, My Favorite Things and Mama Elephant stamp sets. I made the backgrounds by blending Distress Oxide Inks.

Thank you for stopping by and have a great day!

Paper Issues - Attachment Issues

Hi everyone!

Today I'm sharing a layout for the Attachment Issues challenge at Paper Issues. We are challenging you to create a page featuring those ways to attach things: staples, paper clips, brads, eyelets etc.

For my layout I used the Pinkfresh Studio Days of Splendor collection, which was perfect for this picture of Blink sleeping. I attached all the frames with staples and used faux stitches from Pretty Little Studio.

Thank you for stopping by and have a great day!
