Chelsea Gardens layout 1

This is the first layout from the Chelsea Gardens paper packet.  I base the layouts on the Workshop Your Way layouts.  However, I mat the photo's and usually make the photo's larger. 

I love the look of the marble base pages.  It is very different from many other paper designs.
For this layout I have added Pewter card stock for the photo mats.  On page 1 the photo mat is a bit larger than 4 x 6 on page 2 the 2 photo mats are for a 4 x 6 inch picture.  The bling is from the Chelesa Gardens dots and gems.

Chelsea Gardens layout 4

This is the fourth layout from the Chelsea Gardens paper packet.  I base the layouts on the Workshop Your Way layouts.  However, I mat the photo's and usually make the photo's larger. I love dots so I saved this paper for this layout and did not use it in layout one for the 2 x 2 squares.  Instead I cut down some of the pocket cards into 2 x 2 inch squares.  This allowed me to have an extra layout this month.

I have added Charcoal card stock photo mats.  They are all 4 x 6 photo mats.  For the journal spot I used a pocket card trimmed down and some left over Juniper card stock from a previous layout. Zip strips and bling is from Chelsea Gardens dots and gems.

Chelsea Gardens layout 5

This is the 5th and final layout from the Chelsea Gardens paper packet.  On this layout I have added Daisy White and Glacier card stock.  

I added a little die cut embellishment from left over Pewter card stock.  I also cut down one of the pocket cards with the butterfly to make a small journal mat.  To make this pop a bit more I used some left over Pewter card stock underneath.

Animals made with swiss dot paper 12 x 12 layout

I am not sure what pictures will go on this layout yet.  The title will go on the checked borders on both pages.  I think these die cuts turned out so cute using the swiss dot paper. Three of the dies are older Quickuts and one is a Boo bear die.

First Deer 12 x 12 layout

My granddaughter shot her first deer this year.  I made a layout for her as this something special for young hunters.  You most likely have to be a hunter to appreciate this layout.  

 I used a Quicktuz die for the deer and deer tracks.  The brads I found in this cute scrapbook store in WI, they are a riffle and deer.  Someone joking said I should have a blood trail and I thought it was an awesome idea so I added some dark red sparkles with the deer tracks.  The photo mats are embossed with the Sizzix wood folder. I added some dotted ribbon at the bottom of the layout as well.

Out of this World - 12 x 12 layout

I love Sci Fi so when I saw this Treasure Box Design I just had to use it on a scrapbook page.  The colors did not come out great in these photos. The photo mats are a deep purple and aqua.

The photo mats were created with the nested scallop square file from Silhouette Designs.  The aliens and title are from Treasure Box Designs.

I added some sparkle to the page with large rhinestones in clear.
