MME Chalk Studio - Thank You card - Scottie Crafts

Hi, I am coming at you today with a card that is totally not my usual style BUT I love it :)  Not my usual style because if you follow my personal blog you will know that my cars always have cute stamped or digistamped images.   This card obviously doesn't and I have to say looks very grown up :)



I started by choosing my papers Chalk Talk, Happy Day & Beautiful Ride and cutting them to size ( my card is 6x6 inches) and mounting them all on white cardstock.  I also separated my doily to use.
I stuck all my papers and doily down how I wanted them and 
I then diecut a flourish on my cuttlebug using spellbinders Fantastic Flourish one (S2-010) from white cardstock and layered Prima Lakeside mini roses and Prima Cabriole flowers on top.




I placed a sticker from the MME Chalk Studio line on to balance the card...


I then chose a complementary alpha from my thicker collection to use for the sentiment.... 


And my last finishing touch was a handmade pennant mini border fastened with a mini stapler.  Easy, cute and effective :)


Thanks loads for joining me today for my Scottie Crafts post, remember they have the twelve days of Christmas promotion running at the moment.  Heaps of awesome bargains. 
Happy Scrapping :)

Scotties MME Chalk Studio Layout

This week for Scotties I made this layout of Angus using the new My Minds Eye Chalk Studio papers........

I love how the simple colours and pattern really make the photo pop.

I used one of the Prima Resin Cameras in the corner along with a doily which I misted with spray mist to match the layout


I used a sticker from the Chalk Studio line with a white pen to recreate the look of an actual Blackboard


And here is a close up of the photo..... 

Thanks loads for joining me today, happy scrapping.

Scotties Crafts Christmas Cracker Blog Hop

Time for day 5 of the Scottie's Hop and my cracker is a pretty simple one. I found and instructional video on YouTube  HERE, warning her voice is shockingly irritating but stick with it because the cracker is great :)



I added Bakers Twine and Ribbon for a decorative touch.

Millie Layout - Simple Stories Vintage Bliss - Scotties

Hi, I am here with you this morning to share a layout using Vintage Bliss by Simple Stories.


I started with a sheet of white cardstock then layered on a prima stencil and sprayed with a light blue mist to create my background.  

I then cut out some elements from a few pieces of the Vintage bliss Journal card paper to put around my photo....

I used a piece of  May Arts Ivory Net under my title to add texture....

I cut out a few cuts of Memory Box Lavish Branch die and also placed them around my photo along with a butterfly brad from the Vintage Bliss Brad pack .

The layout turned out pretty flat but looks really textured due to the layering around the photograph and stencilled background.

Happy scrapping :)
