Wonderful Layout | Clique kits DT

Good morning everyone!! How was your weekend? We had plans this weekend and that didn't happen because it rained and stormed, so we just changed out plans to some indo stuff and still had fun! But this morning I wanted to share a new layout with you that I made using the Sampler kit, Happy Hearts. I love this kit. I have played with it a few time and will keep playing with it till its gone! lol I mean come on, there are pretty papers, puffy stickers and pretty ephemera!
I ran my cardstock through my silhouette, I liked this big pretty ampersand and thought hey with the pictures I'm scrapping that it would work. lol. I backed the leafs in my cut file with some light green paper and then covered the rest with a light pink. I knew i wanted this to be a little more subtle, but still look good. I already had pulled a bunch of ephemera and fussy cut out some flowers to embellish with, so I already had a color idea.
Once I had the cutfile taken care of, I went to backing my photos. I added a white border and then color behind each of them do that they would pop. I played with where I wanted them on my layout, until I was finally ok with where they were sitting and adhered them down.
So at this point with all the pictures adhered down, I could start playing with my title and embellishments. I had pulled everything that went along with reading out of the ephemera and put it to the side when I started this layout, so it was all just sitting there in a cute little bowl for me. I pulled out the fussy cut flowers and tucked them under the edge of some of the pictures and then started adding the pretty books from the ephemera pack I added some of the fussy cut flowers to the top right, along with that cute little puffy sticker that said happy little moments, because for me it is lol, I love to read. I had pulled the word wonderful out from the ephemera pack and popped that up for my title. I printed out my journaling about my books and added that to my layout and I called this one done. I hope you enjoyed this layout, this kit is still available in the shop, along with so many other pretty things! Head over and check it out!

Live out Loud | Bramble Fox CT

Hello everyone! Hows did your week go? Well it was a stressful one for me, but it got better Thursday and I finally got some mojo to do some scrapping. I played with some of the new perspextives from the June Fox Box. I chose the beautiful Live out Loud perspextive. It went perfect with the Heidi Swapp, Sun Chaser collection.
I pulled the dark paper with hand script on it, and the white with black dots along with my white acrylic paint. I used my silicone brush and dry brushed some white behind where I was putting the white with black dot paper. Really didn't even let it dry lol. I am impatient. I adhered my white dotted paper down and pulled a few scrap strips I had on my desk, they look like rainbow colors and added them to the top and bottom of the dotted paper.
I pulled my perspextive out and set it where I wanted it and chose where I was going to put my photo. I had actually started with the photo and backed it with a few layers of patterned papers. Added some vellum and popped it up on some dimensional adhesive, then added another card behind it so that I could slide my tag in.
Once i knew where I wanted the picture and the title, I started to place everything else. I pulled a tag and put it partially behind my title, I left some of it hanging out so that I would have somewhere else to add embellishments. I added a few ephemera pieces to the top of the white dotted page and then to the bottom right side of it as well. I popped little pieces here and there, ruffed them up with my nails and then decided to finish it off with some white watered down splatters. I did my journaling off camera and slid my tag into place and called it good. I also have a process video up on youtube to go along with this layout. I havent done a video in years, so gettting back on track, fingers crossed! Hope you enjoy! https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCc1_TUM_Z90Uy97kvXIPJwA

SnapShot | BrambleFox DT

Hey everyone! How is your friday going? Anyone scrapping this weekend? Well I got to do a little scrapbooking this week and I chose a picture from my adventure climbing a mountain and I thought the Snapshot perspextive worked great for it.
I pulled out my Heidi Swapp Color fresh collection and pulled some papers that I liked, along with a bold black and white strip from my stash. I knew I wanted the black and white on the top so that there was quite a bit of contrast when I added in color form the other papers, so I started there. Once I had that portion down I started layering papers behind my photo.
I added a few layers, roughing up the edges to add some more texture and then popped it up on some dimensional foam. I was happy with it at this point and wanted to see what else I wanted to do with the layout. I had laid my title, the perspextive SnapShot, on my layout to decide where I wanted it and then added thing from there. I knew I wanted a little more color on the bottom, so I added a corner out of some of the same paper I had layered behind my photo.
I decided that I wanted to add a brighter pop of color to the layout too so I grabbed some of the electric yellow paper from the collection and added a tag made out of it, behind my photo and finally adhered it down along with the SnapShot perspextive. Now I wanted to add some more embellishments! So, I pulled out the ephemera from the collection and found that vellum circle and loved it so I added that, a few arrows and florals from the collection and then realized that the Triangles and Tabs from Bramble would work great too, So I added a few of the green x or crosses and then a great blue tab at the top. I pulled a few word stickers that went with my layout and used them and printer out my journaling and was done. I hope you enjoyed this layout!

Me Time | Bramble Fox CT

Hello everyone! I'm here today to share a new layout with you that I made using a few perspextives from the May Fox Box. I loved these as soon as I saw them! I had decided to join a online book club that I found, some of you may know it, its reading with heba on instagram and I took a little me time to read the book for that month and have a cup of coffee.
I started this layout with the perspextives I I had chose, along with the photo and then started to pull things from my stash. In this case I pulled the Maggie Holmes Round Trip collection out and my sizzix and started to cut out some butterflies. No idea what made me chose butterflies, but I did lol. I had pulled a few papers from the collection and cut those out but thought I wanted a little more, maybe some black added in. I went back to my stash and found some rice paper from A.B. Studio and cut a large butterfly out and a few little ones. Once I had those done, I started to play with there I was going to put them on the layout.
I found where I wanted all the butterflies and snapped a quick pic on my phone and then swiped them all off and grabbed story sky distressed oxide and some Dylusions black shimmer paint, added a little water to them both and added some splatters to my layout. While they were drying I added some tissue paper behind my photo and grabbed a few little tags from the paper collection and tucked them in to the side of my photo.
To finish my layout off I added some dimensional foam to the back of my photo and added it to my layout and then popped that adorable clock up to the top right. I found another tag and noted what this photo was about, added it below my title and I was done. I hope you liked this layout, I enjoyed making it and I hope you pop over to the shop and see all of the beautiful new items that are there!
