Splish Splash - Bella Blvd DT

Good morning everyone!!

I'm here playing with the new Splash Zone collection. I love everything about this collection, it is amazing!!

 

I know I used a large photo on this layout, I really wanted to, its been forever since I have used one.I pulled pieces that I knew I wanted to use on this layout, knowing that I didn't have a lot of room for papers and stuff, I grabbed the boarders patterned paper and cut the strips down till I got the ones I wanted.

 

I layered two of them along the top of the photo and then went to adding tabs, even making one of my own with the beautiful rainbow washi tape. I tucked them in here and there along with ephemera leaves. I pulled the Splish Splash acrylic piece and chose where I wanted it. These acrylic words are just, yeah, again another thing with these new collections that I love.

 

I wanted to add some more to the layout so I went a head and jumped to the bottom right of the layout and layered a scalloped strip I made with some more of the gorgeous rainbow washi tape, along with a few stickers from the doohickey sticker sheet and the freaking cute flamingo floaty. 

I also went in and pulled some of the chipboard pieces that looked like splashes and added them to the layout as well.

If you havent gotten your hands on the new collections yet, make sure to grab them! They are going to be perfect for this summer and all of the great pictures you will be taking!!!

 

Splash zone collection:

Boarders paper, Doohickey stickers, Ephemera, Rainbow washi tape, Acrylic word-Splish Splash, Word salad cardstock sticker booklet

 

Paper Sweeties May release rewind

Today is the 3rd day of the new release at Paper Ssweeties and the last one till next months release, So I thought I would pop on and share another layout I made using some of beautiful new stamps and cute cuts.

 

 When I started this layout I knew what picture I was going to use, so I grabbed some Jane Davenport mermaid markers and started to mix and play with colors until I got the purple that I wanted and added splatters of pink in with it as well.

 

I made sure to do the mixing and playing with the colors on a few different pieces of paper so that I could use some of it for stamping on and cutting out. After I got the background the purple I wanted I started adding layers behind my photo. I knew there wasn't a lot of pink in the colors on the background so I added more pinks behind the photo.

 

I stamped with the Thinking of you stamps, I used those beautiful flowers. I stamped them on white cardstock and on some of the paper I played with the mixed media on, then used the Sweet cuts and cut them out and layered them in with the papers behind the photo.

 

I loved the way the flowers looked, you can do so much with them, they are amazing for layering and stand alone. I hope you head over to the shop and check out the new,(and old) selections of stamps and sweet cuts!! And make sure to check out the rest of the design team too!!

Paper Sweeties May 2019 New Release

Good morning everyone!!

It is beautiful today and these Life is an adventure stamps and dies were just what I needed to work with!!

 

 I had some pictures from us going camping and oh  man these little campers just needed to be on the layout!! I used them in my planner this month too, but I paper pieced them that time and I wanted to play with them with my water colors this time. So many ways you can play with these!

 

I waited till the water color was almost dry and ran a dry brush across it to make it have some texture and to me it made the camper look a little dirty lol and thats what I was going to. I loved the fact that I was able to tuck it behind the little hill, enjoying my fringe scissors right now too. 

 

 On this stamp set there are some really cute little sayings and I used a few. The life is an adventure worked perfect on my tab and you make me a happy camper was fun to add in down by the little camper. I really wanted to use the #Glamping one, but with my kiddos we definitely weren't glamping lol

 

 I added another camper in, I cut do many out and painted them I could have probably could have filled a whole page with them, lol they are just to fun to play with!

 

I hope you enjoyed this layout and make sure to check out the rest of the design teams creations too and head over and check out the shop and blog!

Paper Sweeties May 2019 Release Party!

Hello everyone!!

 I'm here today to share with you some of the great new stamps and dies from Paper Sweeties!! Today I'm using the new Thinking of you stamp set and the Thinking of you sweet cuts.

The flowers in this stamp set are fantastic and I had to use them!

 

I honestly started all of this with just grabbing the floral stamps and stamping them on a bunch of cardstock and cutting them out and painting them with pretty shimmerz, cause I wanted a little shimmer to my layout.

 

I had no collection picked out or anything when I painted any of them, I just knew I had to use them lol. I grabbed another sheet of cardstock and my picture and started to layer the pretty flowers around my photo, till I got them the way I wanted.

 

I wanted some more to the layout so I grabbed some patterned paper and added a few layers behind my photo, popped some circles out and a mat around the cardstock.

 

To finish it all off I had to add a title and I knew I wanted hello toothless to be my title for my goofy, sweet girl and her toothless smile, so I added those with some glittered gold thickers and then I grabbed the cute doodlebug stickers and tucked some of the leafs and cute little bugs in here and there. I thought they were cute and added a little fun to the layout as well. 

 I hope you liked this layout and I hope you go check the rest of the Paper Sweeties design teams projects out as well.

May Planner / Paper Sweeties DT

Good morning everyone!!

 My name is Sarah and this is my 1st post for Paper Sweeties.

I'm here to share with you some of my May planner. I play with pretties in my planner before the month starts and then as the month goes I add pictures in and journaling about things that go on.

 

I know some of what were doing this month, Like I said I use my planner like everyone else and plan things, but add so much more as the month goes along. But since I knew some of the things we had planned for this month I used Let's go on an Adventure from Bella Blvd and thought I would give y'all a little sneak peek of the soon to be released products available on 5/15, Camper.

  

 I love this new set and you will be seeing so much more of it!! Make sure you check out the New release on the 15th!! So cute!!
