DT Scrap FX It's all good

Welcome!

today a new inspiration layout with some various products from
Scrap FX,

 a mix from stamps, chipboards and transparency sayings.

IT's summertime here, time for relaxations, sun and sea.
In memory on a beautiful time by the sea

I have created this maritime layout with a touch of vintage feeling suitable to the saying

- She was (is) :-) a modern girl with a vintage soul -

 

used Scrap Fx products

She phrases transparency

Fancy feathers

Moments

Flourish 19 Wing

Art Noveau Arc

Filmstrip stamp 

I colored the frame with white and a little bit blue acrylic paint

the altered lighthouse was a die, which I used with textured paper

 and a little bit distress vintage paint

I added the flourish to the frame, so it looks like a sea wave

I also love such marble effects, here started with blue acrylic paint, then on some place white embossing powder and finally some dark acrylic paint over the embossing areas 

I often use this 'Burnt Copper Leaves' Embossing powder from Emerald Dare Creek, 

it's so great,

because you have copper metallic particle as well as additionel
black shares in one powder

the film stripe is always a wonderful addition for all scrapbook layouts,

 it fits to everything, no matter what style
you prefer

Many thanks for your visit!

I hope you like my inspiration!

If you will see more mixed media ideas,

maybe a fantasy rusty canvas 

with this amazing Steampunk Seahorse

from Scrap FX

See you later!

DT Scraps of Darkness - A true gentleman

Welcome!

Kerstin here and my first inspiration for our May Kit.

My father - a true gentleman 

As I saw the new month theme at More than words Father & Steampunk

I thought yes, that's the right inspiration for a vintage travel layout with a touch of steampunk.

I love this combination!

I used our wonderful Scraps of Darkness May Kit 'Attic finds',

an amazing kit with the new collection 'Architextures' from 7gypsies, Canvas corp brands.

If you have a slightly older car with a few macken it's always very good to have a good man who is familiar with cars. My father has always an open ear for it and is very helpful.

Have you seen the new findings and treasures from the 7 gypsies Architextures collection?

I used a background paper from this Architexture collection and a frame from the paper 'Art Wall'. 

I cut the inner part and added a funny old photo.

the thicker alphabet stickers are very diversified and very suitable to this style

this vintage car is a stamp, which was cut out

I used the tiles and I have divided the suitcases.

 There are really great and looks like original attics finds. 

It adds so much dimension to this layout.

the stains and splatters were made with this new 'Splatter' stencil from Kaisercraft

they are perfect for an altered look

 Thanks a million Dad!

Delicate colours

Welcome!

and I'm back with a new layout for our DT Scrap FX.

Today in a very romantic style with a adorable photo,

 which remember me on wonderful days in my childhood, as I visit my grandparents.

 It was springtime and I'm a big lover of springtime flowers,

so I was pleased 

as I saw this awesome Magnolia branch chipboard.

 I used chalkboard paints for a fine romantic character

 and added some little pearls in the centre for a 3D effect

The new stamps looks like lace, very filigran and delicate 

They can be used as frame, border or for the edge design.

Finally I added spray and splatters also to the black card phrase, 

so fits visually better into the whole spring layout design.

I want to share this springtime and motherday layout

 Make it Prima in May Moodboard

 I used a background paper from the 'En Francais Collection'

and elements from the new 'Love clipping collection'

Have a nice time!

Hello!

Our theme with the new products from

  Scrap FX 

  

 this month is

- SHE -

As I saw this wonderful black card silhouette 

She has fire in her soul

and grace in her heart

yes :-)

 this is made just for me!

But unfortunately I'm not the greatest fan from my own photo's  

they are so terrible,

so I decided to use a picture from an old magazine.

The new stencils are so suitable to this theme,

fresh, cheerful and free.

DT Scraps of Darkness - Smile

Welcome!

A new layout with SOD 'Blue Skies and Sunshine' Kit

I was inspired  from this cool -Jeans- look on the Kaisercraft 'Indigo Skies' collection

I love denim in all variants as clothes or for home decoration pieces,

you know, you can used it also for amazing upcycle projects.

But now to my children layout in a romantic and playful style.

 :-) Smile - It Suits You :-)

As I saw the background paper 'Washed out' from this Kaisercraft collection

I thought, the time is right to try a new design.

I followed the triangle lines and cut some stripes

for the upper part a wide and at the bottom of layout

two thinner stripes

which I glued over each other.

the wooden alphabet tile are very practical

I chose the word 'Joy'

they are also paintable for instance with 

a Distress Crayon

together with some lace leftovers, the white Prima flowers from the Main Kit

and highlighted with the 'Ocean' Ice Resin

Have you seen this wonderful butterflies in the Kaisercraft Collectables
found in the Element add on ? 

They are perfect for a 3D effect, folds them and glue it only in the middle.

 

 

Thanks for your visit!

Happy crafting!

DT Scraps of Darkness - Dream it. Do it.

Welcome!

Kerstin here and a new project for our  

Scraps of Darkness Kit Blue Skies and Sunshine'. 

I was so in love with the Indigo Storm paper from Kaisercraft found in the  the Main Kit 

that I had to use it again.

I created a mixed media collage with dies, chipboards, nature deco elements

 and a lot of beautiful memories. 

 The wood background paper are really wonderful especially for sea layouts, it reminded me of boardwalks and the other blue paper from this collection is my favourit, 

it's so perfect for create such amazing stormy waves.

I tore it in two strips and glued on top of each other, 

together with a crackle stamp (Kaisercraft) and a white permanent stamp ink,

 the tattered edges were also inked with distress vintage paint .

 some stamps in background, here a wonderful seahorse, because I'm a big fan from such fascinating sea animals and suitable a coral stamp (from Scrap FX)

I highlighted the wooden steering wheel with some blue Ice Resin sparkles glued with clear gesso.

Some word stickers from this paper collection made the little corner perfect for me.

 some chipboards from Dusty Attic, a lighthouse created with turquoise 

embossing powder and white acrylic paint diluted with water

 two stripes from the Indigo Skies Sticker sheet together 

with two chipboards

 here with turquoise and green pearl embossing powder

 and some white splashes about that

I'm also a big fan from dies, I love the idea to made some cut outs from photos, 

photos doesn't  always have to be rectangular, or?!

little mermaids were also dies from my stuff, I stamped some white crackles on it

and some nature deco elements, little shells and snail houses, reindeer moss, driftwood pieces,

and leftovers from an old fishing net

I want to inspire you to try it out and create your own layout, 

maybe as memory on a wonderful day by the sea?!
