Here's a photo of this month's Scrapbook kit:
From my stash I will be using: Tim Holtz Idea-ology paper dolls and old time car, foam dots and tape, Clear Versamark ink, Martha Stewart Embossing powders Ladybug and Daffodil, Blue tinsel Embossing glitter.
Layout #1: I chose a 12x12 paper for my background base. See photo:
I chose acouple photos and adhered them onto this vintage postcard in the journal pack.
Set aside your layout and post card. Taking a old time car diecut and 3 paper dolls from my Tim Holtz Idea-ology pack. I cut to fit the paper dolls behind each car window. Glue in place and added foam tape on the backside. I adhered my old time car along the bottom edge. See photo:
My postcard will be my main focal point so I adhered my postcard at an angle towards the center top.i glued a few flowers from the kit on the lower right corner on my postcard. With foam dots I adhered the clouds and butterflies ephemera pieces at the top! See photo:
On the left side With foam dots, I adhered some soap and other ephemera cards. Then tucked a Finnibair Mechanicals Woodland Leaves behind my ephemera piece and overlapping the corner of my postcard. I glued one of the larger 49 & Market flowers at the bottom left corner. See photo:
Here's a photo of my finished layout!
Layout # 2: I chose another patterned paper for the base of my layout. See photo:
I chose a 4x6 photo and matted it on one of the journal cards in our kit.
I added some foam tape on the backside of my photo and added it in the center right side.
I chose some ephemera, flowers to embellish my layout. You can set them aside for a moment.
Take out the Tres Jolie chipboard butterfly piece inside the kit. I cut mine into 2 separate pieces. See photo:
Next I applied some Versamark Clear ink onto each chipboard butterfly and sprinkled them with Embossing powers in Ladybug red and Daffodil. I sprinkled the other butterfly with the Blue Tinsel Embossing glitter. Heat emboss your chipboard. See photo:
Now take your layout base and arrange your chipboard pieces, ephemera and flowers. Glue in place once you are happy with their placement.
With foam dots, I adhered the 1,2,3 ephemera pieces, on the upper left corner. On the upper right corner i glued a chipboard butterfly and Me & You ephemera sentiment. Here's some photos!
With foam dots I adhered acouple sentiment strip definitions at the top and bottom edges of my photo. On the bottom right corner I glued a large flower. Here's a photo!
On the lower left corner I glued a few Prima flowers from my stash that I thought matched perfectly with the papers. I added the ephemera teacup/happy piece to the right of my flowers. Here's a closeup look at my finished layout!
Now we are finished with our layouts! I hope you enjoyed this Scrapbook project and will order a kit for yourself! Thank you for stopping by the Tres Jolie Blog! Can't wait to see what you all create with this Fabulous kit!
