49 and Market Grove Collection - Part 2

  Hello everyone. Get ready to get green! I have two more layouts today with the 49 and Market - Grove Collection from Scrap Shotz. It's good to be green.


The first layout uses one piece of paper. It is cut in half and then that half was cut in half again. The company tag at the bottom of another two papers had the green band on the back and I used them to cover the seams. 


I decided to stamp some words and leaves on the page to for some contrast and interest. 



 The frame packacetate leaves and butterflies and envelope bits pack were what made the embellishments easy to use. The rub-ons are hard to find because they blend so well.


The second layout used a few different papers layered for the background and then lots of frames. I fussy cut the main leaves and butterflies and then layered acetate and rub-on ones underneath. The Thickers are from Simple Stories from a previous kit. I decided to stitch a little bit to match the fake stitching on the frames and ended up wrapping two of the frames in thread. 


This picture shows one of the rub-ons, stamping, fussy cutting and paint splatter.

That's all for now. Stop by the shop and check out this collection while it is still in stock!

Have a scrappy day!

49 and Market - Colour Swatch Grove Layouts

  Hello everyone! Are you in the mood for some green layouts? If so, I have two just for you. This is my first time using 49 and Market and it did not disappoint. The papers are thicker than any I've ever used which makes for a really strong base. I also loved the rub-ons. It is not something I've used a lot in the past, but it sure makes adding splatters precise and less messy. They also transferred very easily and they look like they are printed on the paper. 


The collection is called 'Colour Swatch - Grove'. The first layout I used the premade frames for my photos. Then I used some acetate leaves and butterflies to decorate the page. 


The pocket is in the envelope bits pack. Finally, some of those subtle details are rub-ons. It's hard to tell which ones!


The foam letters are from a previous Simple Stories kit.


The second layout uses all the same supplies as the first. The journaling tags can be found in the envelope bits package. It is much easier to see the elements up close. 


The acetate you can see the outline of the plastic around the leaves. But the two butterflies and the splatter between them are all rub-ons and look like they are part of the background paper. 


Those leaves below the butterfly are a rub-on and the leaves on the right are part of the patterned paper. Can't even tell the difference! I also couldn't help spattering some white paint around the page. 

That's all for now but I'll be back in two weeks with more Grove Collection layouts.
