{Believe...}

Hello, 49 and Market fans!  

Welcome to the blog. 

I am sharing another layout with the gorgeous Evergreen Season collection. 

For this layout, I used the reverse side of the Festive Tradition, Ceremonious Poinsettias, and Solids Paper 4 and 5.  I chose the Solids Paper 5 as the background paper. From the Festive Traditions paper, I cut a strip of 4,5 inches, and from the Solids Paper 4 and the reverse side of the Ceremonious Poinsettias 1,5 inches strips for layering under the Festive Traditions Paper. This was then glued to the Solids Paper 5.

The matted photo was layered on a Vintage Orchard Stacked frame. These frames create a stunning layered look. I also added a chipboard frame.  The red frame with the red and white twine is from the Summer Porch By Land Laser cuts.



To create this cluster I filled a green pocket from the Vintage Orchard Ephemera Bits with Evergreen laser-cut elements.  The two Christmas Bingo cards are from the Christmas Spectacular Ephemera Bits. The pocket was then decorated with chipboard words.


"Believe" is one of the Chipboard Words I used for the title. I also used Essential 
Rub-ons here.


Here is another cluster using Essential and Botanical rub-ons, laser-cut elements, and words.


Some more sentiments and a chipboard word, as well as wishing bubbles.

Welcome to the blog today. 

I am sharing a layout using the beautiful Birdsong collection.  It is such a pretty collection with all the amazing images. This is a photo of my daughter and her family.

For this layout, I used the Songs of Hope paper.

{Merry Christmas...}

Hello, 49 and Market fans!  

Welcome to the blog today. 

I am on the blog today featuring a layout created with the gorgeous Evergreen Season collection.

For this layout, I used the Cheerful Christmas Star, Joyful Timber, and Solids Paper 1.  I selected the Solids Paper 1 as my base.  From the Cheerful Christmas Star paper, I cut a strip of 4.5 inches and from the Solids Paper 4, I punched two strips with a lace punch and glued them to the Cheerful Christmas Star paper.  This was then glued to the Solids Paper 1.

Using different sizes of circle punches, I punched out some wood slices from the Joyful Timber paper and randomly glued them to the background.

Next step, I added rub-ons from the Essentials and Botanical Rub-on Transfer Sets to the background.


 The layering was done with some of the images on the backside of the laser-cut packaging. Laser-cut elements were also added.


To create this cluster, I used l laser cut images and word phrases as well as punched-out wood slices from the Joyful Timber paper.


I used a variety of pretty blooms, and laser cuts to create the flower cluster. The edges of the flowers were dry brushed with white gesso and acrylic paint. I also added flowers and foliage from the Mini Laser Cut Elements, a few wood slices, as well as rub-ons from the Botanical and Essentials Rub-on Transfer sets. 


For the title, I used Chipboard Words. 


The final touches to this layout included Wishing Bubble Epoxy Stickers, and splatters with diluted white gesso.

{Charming...}

 Hello, 49 and Market fans!  

Welcome to the blog today. 

I am so excited to share my new layout using the stunning new Rust and Revs collection designed by Dennis Bruton. 

We visited Namibia in 2017. Solitaire is one of Namibia's most enigmatic destinations, a small desert town with only a diner, church, petrol station, and small shop. The first thing to catch a visitor's attention when arriving at Solitaire is the treasure trove of rusted vintage car wrecks.  This collection is perfect for my photos.  

For this layout, I used the Journey and Expedition papers, and they are perfect for creating a double layout. The corner images on these papers are stunning and so realistic. I used pieces from the Thrill and Freedom paper for layering.  With a corner punch, I rounded the corners and then inked the edges. 


Rub-ons are used around the page to add extra details.  For the title I used the die-cut Charming included in the Die-Cut Elements set and raised it with foam tape.  Words were matted on cardstock, raised with foam tape, and glued randomly to the photos. Here you can also see some elements from the Rub-on Transfer Set. 



To create the frame cluster, I glued the frame to a piece of Thrill paper with foam strips for dimension.  I filled the frame with Laser Cut and Die-Cut elements.  How amazing are these trucks, they look like replicas of the trucks in my photos. The trucks were also lifted with foam squares.


These beautiful cactuses are also from the Laser Cut Element Set.


Here is another cluster using cactuses and tires from the Laser Cut Element Set.  Stunning fussy cut images are on the back of the Laser Cut Elements cover.  There are even gears that you can punch out with a circle punch. How cool is this?

{Beach vibes...}

 Hello, 49 and Market fans!  

Welcome to the blog today. 

This is my first layout using the Summer Porch collection.  This collection is perfect for documenting summer memories.

For this layout, I used the B-side of the At Sea paper.  I love the mixed media effect on this paper.  I flipped the paper horizontally and used a landscape photo. The At Sea paper is glued to the bonus page at the back of the cover of the 12x12 collection pack.

I layered the matted photo on Ephemera Bits, Sea, and Land Laser Cuts.  I also glued a red fishing rope from Sea Laser Cuts to the top of my layout. A waterdrop stamp and Distress Oxide in Faded Denim were randomly stamped in the background. 

At Se

I created three clusters on my layout using Ephemera Bits, elements from the Chipboard Set, and Land and Sea laser cuts.  I also added chipboard elements from the page kit chipboard sheet.


For the title, I used chipboard words. 


The Summer Porch collection has stunning rub-on transfer sets.  I used elements from the Essentials Rub-on Transfer Set.
