"Be Happy" Scrapbook layout mixed media with Tattered Angels

"Be Happy" 

I've been going back to my old roots and 
diving into scrapbooking again. 
It also could be the fact that I need a little brightness in my life. 
The winter here in New Hampshire has been long, cold and still going into our 
"spring" time....so I created a little of my own sunshine!
The photo was perfect for my mixed media cheerful background just look
at those umbrella's which hang in the air between buildings during the summer. 
It's a really cool to see in person and just brings a smile to you. 


I started with the mixed media background, I used white card stock
and a Heidi Swapp  dot stencil and TCW Light n Fluffy Modeling Paste.
To bring on the color I reached for Tattered Angels yummy colors in
glimmer mist and glimmer glam's. 
(list of colors below)

I created my own handmade fabric flowers that where perfect
 for the color tones I created in this layout. 


Added some random stamping and splatters of glimmer mist, also I used the 
technique of plastic sheet with glimmer mist/glam and squashed onto the 
textured background...such a fun technique. 


I used chipboard pieces by CE-Creative Embellishments-Circle painted
with Gesso and added layers of Tattered Angels Glimmer Glam in Cup Cake
heating in between layers...helps to bubble up the glam.


Thanks for stopping by,
colors over at the Canvas Corp Brands Shop, HERE.

Girl's Trip Junkin Layout using Hip Kit's March Kit/Maggie Holmes


I created this scrapbook layout the other day to play along
with a weekly challenge for the Hip Kit Club Facebook Forum.
I started to receiving Hip Kit Club monthly kits
 last year and I am so hooked!

I used the March Hip Kit 2018 
 it's filled with amazing products...
Why not JOIN Hip Kit Club more details HERE!


It all started with a weekly sketch and a beautiful kit....oh and coffee!


The kit is filled with many different brands of scrapbooking products 
one that I used a lot through out this layout was the Maggie Holmes Flourish collection. 
I knew I wanted to use this photo of my daughter Olivia and I, we were 
heading out for a day of shopping, junking and spending good time together.
I was like quick lets take a selfie....she giggles! 


I just love this layout and I must say I know it's cause I love layers!


When I saw the hearts on the sketch I knew I wanted to create a garland, who doesn't love a flowing garlands....this girl does!


OMG love this little dear!
But now I don't have another one, time to go shopping.


If you know me you know I love floral's....and in the Maggie Holme
Flourish collection is filled with them....and pretty little animals.
Like this little Quail she is so adorable (reminds me of a memory of my 
oldest brother who raised Quail's in high school) 
see scrapping brings back memories.


One of my favorite layers in this layout is the old dictionary page that
I ripped out of the old dictionary book I got 
at a flea market trip.
It's hard to see in the photos but
 I used the page all about the word
"JUNK" !


I haven't scrapbook in awhile life gets busy so I have decided this year to 
take more time for what I really love to do. 


Thanks for stopping by today and scrap on!
