Scrappy Saturday-Good Vibes- SpiegleMomScraps DT

Good morning everyone!! I hope your having an amazing weekend, we've had a long weekend here and the kids have been having a blast! Our weather has went from freezing to in the 80's again lol, our weather cant decided what it wants to do here! 

But on to the scrapping and pretties!!

This month were playing with circles and this is the sketch were playing with this week. I love playing with sketches and circles are a fun switch up too!! I have to be honest, I usually stick with squares and rectangles, so its fun to break out of my norm. 

I loved this months new sequins and I really wanted to play with the Dream Land mix. I want to play with them all but I dont know what a layout would look like with ALL of them on there lol. Anyways, I went through my scrappy stash and pulled out what I had left over from the Girly and strong kit from The Fairy tale club. The kit had everything but the purple in it, and I hate that I didnt use the purple cause its one of my favorite colors! But all the other colors matched!!! And I was so happy about that!

I started out playing with a little Shimmerz on the background. I used Spritz Cotton Candy, Dazzlerz Sea U in the morning and splattered a little Shimmerz Bumbly Bee on there too! I do have to say that I am loving Bumbly Bee, its amazing! The shimmer to it is fantastic! Anyways, back to it. After I let the background dry, I sewed four circles on the background in black thread and then started the layering.

Usually I wait to put my sequins on last but this time I started with them! I pulled out my sequins and started placing them around my sewn circles. I wanted to play with them so bad and loved the way they sparkled!! After I placed them down, I thought I should probably get some pretty paper and pictures put down. So I pulled out some pictures of me, of course playing with snapchat again,lol.

I pulled out some doilies from my stash and laid them in my sewn circles and started layering behind my photos. The papers were bright and fun and I loved the way it was coming together. I had already used all the embellishments that came with the kit so I had to make my own, so I pulled one paper that had pretty roses on it and another that had lip stick on it and started to fussy cut!

For my title, I pulled out a Dear Lizzy die cut word and added some cotton candy Spritz, then added it onto of my doily. Then tucked in a large lipstick for fun and a pretty flower.

I finished the layering behind the rest of the photos, cut down the white cardstock and added the light blue, blue striped paper to the background and was done.

Happy Girl 12x12 layout-Fairytale club

Good morning everyone and happy Saturday to you all! 

I hope your weekend has started off good! Sarah here again this morning to share with you another layout I made with the beautiful Girly and Strong collection.

I loved this background paper and wanted to use it, so that's where I started with this layout. I had this picture of my youngest daughter, that I just caught when she was crawling around on the floor. Its nothing amazing or a fantastic event, just an every day moment that I wanted to capture.  So i cut this cut-file out on my Silhouette and laid it in the middle of my layout, where I wanted the focus. 

Then I went for that beautiful paper with all those roses on it and started to fussy cut them out.Once I got the ones I wanted cut out, I started placing them around the cut-file. I slid my photo under the left side of the cut-file and layered a label sticker and a ticket from the ephemera pack. I added the Happy die-cut from the ephemera pack and then fussy cut out the girl from one of the planner inserts and placed them down. As you'll see on a lot of my layouts, I like to add splatter, so I did that here too.

I grabbed a few of my other favorite patterned papers from this months kit and added a few strips to the bottom. I tucked a fussy cut rose behind those, added the other half of the label sticker and the hello pretty word sticker. I kept seeing the packaging from the ephemera and thought I should use it,lol. So I grabbed the packaging and cut a triangle and slid it under the strips. I liked the way that looked and decided I wanted to add some more of it to the top left to add some balance. I finished by adding a label sticker, to pull some of the blue up to that corner and added a few more ephemera pieces and was done.

I hope the rest of your weekend goes great and that maybe you'll get some scrappy time too!

Dream Big - Fairytale club DT

Good morning everyone! I'm here this morning to share my second layout for the Fairytale club and I just love it all!! I have such a hard time choosing what to use, or what not to use I guess, since I have a hard time not using it all!!

I started with my photo and this great cut-file. I grabbed my cardstock and sprinkled some Gold color shine around it. While the color shine was drying, I backed the feathers on my dream catcher. Once it was done with backing the feathers I adhered  the feather portion of the cut file down and started layering papers behind my picture.

I grabbed a planner page and fussy cut that adorable unicorn out and layered it on the right side of the photo and added a few pretty little roses from the ephemera pack. Then slid it under the moon. Once I got the photo placed down where I wanted it, I glued the rest of the moon down. Then came the pretty sequins! I pulled almost all the gold sequins out and glued them down around the dream catcher.

I liked the layout, but wanted more color to it, so I trimmed down two sides and backed it with that beautiful, two colored dotted paper. I cut a triangle from one of the planner inserts, I loved the bows! I put that to the bottom right of the layout, trimmed down around the outside of a circle label I had already used the inside to, punched out the xo from the paper I cut the unicorn down from and then added that cute unicorn ephemera piece. I wanted one last touch, and added the So lovely word sticker and was done.

I hope you enjoyed this layout because I loved making it and I hope your enjoying playing with this beautiful kit!!
