Home Memories - Cocoa Vanilla Studio ‘unforgettable’ collection

Hey everyone, its Raquel here with you today sharing a layout that I created using the free printable INSD kit and free live online class that Zoe did last Friday night. Zoe’s class was created in a 12×12 size and inspired by these home days in isolation. I was so motivated to create a page using the page design and kit as a base for an 8.5×11″ size layout.

Here is the layout that I created:

I created a process video to show how this layout came together, you can see it here:

The layout features two photos of my kiddies taken recently during our home learning. We are going onto our 7th week of isolation here in our household and are currently home learning. Our school has an amazingly supportive program for these two kiddies, but being 5 and 7 they of course need constant support to complete set tasks. Getting used to this new normal and Mummy as the teacher has been new for us all. While supporting my kiddies to learn, I am also a Foundation school teacher so as well as supporting my own kiddies I have a class of 19 to work with as well. To say its been a juggle is speaking lightly. I am very much looking forward to life resuming to normal and everyone being safe and healthy as I am sure we all are.

Here are some close ups of the layout

I adhered the clear stickers from the kit onto white card stock and fussy cut around them to create a moveable ephemera that I could embellish the page with. 

I used a title from the wood veneer set that says love and matched that with the fine alpha die set and die cut out the letters for YOU.

To give some detail and contrast to the background I used the dot stamps in the Pinstripe stamp set and created a vertical stamped design. 

I finished the page with some machine stitching, enamel dots and typewritten journaling. 

I hope you have been inspired by my layout today, thanks so much for stopping by my blog. Be sure to check out my process video above to see exactly how this layout came together.

Happy anniversary to Altenew!

轻蜂加速器破解版

Hi everyone,

I'm super excited to be participating in day 2 of Altenew's 5th Anniversary Blog Hop, thanks for inviting me Altenew! I think I calculated that this is my 3rd Anniversary hop that I have taken part in, I feel very blessed to be a friend of Altenew.

Now, after your stop at Nancy McClelland’s post, its now my turn to give you some Altenew inspiration. To create my layout today I used the new Live your Dream Scrapbook Kit by Altenew.

Here is the layout I created to share with you today:

The subject of my layout was myself, which isn't normally a subject on my scrapbook pages. However, life over the past six months or so has been a little bit life changing. I have returned to work full time and am now juggling home life and work life. I have also made my health a priority so I am not only feeling better physically, but mentally too. This is the story I wanted to document on this page. 

I could not go past the amazing floral paper in the kit. Due to scrapbooking 8.5x11" in size I had to cut the 12x12" design down to suit. However, I was able to manipulate and cut the remaining left over papers so I could add extra floral images to the right side of the page. 

I wanted embellishments to layer under my circular photo. I used the clear floral stickers and leaves in the kit to add some extra detail. I made sure to choose the orange and pink in colour florals and the blue leaves, so it complimented the rest of the layout. 

The large chipboard floral piece has been a favourite of mine ever since I received this kit. I had wanted to make it a feature on this page. 

I love to type my journaling on my typewriter. It makes it an easy way to add my story. 

I hope you have been inspired by my layout today, thanks so much for stopping by my blog.

I had such a ball having a play with this gorgeous collection kit. The bright colours were perfect for documenting my story.

Here is the layout I created: The subject of my layout is a bit of a 'mushy' story. This photo was taken on Valentines day this year and much to my and my 6 year old daughters surprise my husband came home with two bunches of native flowers. We are such lucky girls to have an amazing husband and male role model and daddy for my daughter. I hope she learns through the actions of her Daddy that there are amazing men out there that will show and appreciate us for all that we do.

Including some detailed images:

The colours in this kit are so vibrant and soooo easy to create a page with. The floral paper had my heart.

I couldn't resist making a feature of that gorgeous floral paper. What a statement it makes!

My journaling is basically just a retell of the story behind the flowers we are holding. Of course this is typewritten and cut into strip form before adhering.

I hope that you were inspired by my layout today, be sure to check out the Altenew store to snap one of these kits up!

Altenew December 2018 Markers/Embellishments Release Blog Hop + Giveaway

Hey everyone, you may have arrived here from Virginia Lu's blog, welcome! Today I am here to celebrate the December releases which are two new colour sets of Altenew's Artist Markers and also a stunning bundle of versatile and fun scrapbooking embellishments which of course are right up my alley!

I have challenged myself to use a stamp I love, the Bamboo Rose stamp and die set, and the markers to create my page today. 

Here is the page I created:

Some close up images and a little more about this page:

The subject of my page is my two children (again!). I wanted to create a page to document what good little friends they are to each other. There is 21 months between them and it always makes me so happy when they play nicely together. Yes, they certainly have their moments; he's looking at me funny, she's looking out my window, he/she wont share, etc, but at the end of a day if one of them is in any trouble or gets hurt they are always there for each other. I really hope this continues with them through adulthood, what a special bond they have. 

I have used a few key Altenew goodies here; the Reflection scrapbook kit, the Bamboo Rose stamp set, the Primary Artist Markers and some of the new veneer and enamel dot embellishments.

I printed my photo in approx a 3x4" size and positioned it at the top left of my layout. This allowed me to cluster the florals around that. Now those of you are regular users of markers may be cringing at my attempts to colour these florals. I have to admit this was my first time using markers like this and yes it was scary, but I did find out that I really enjoyed the process. The colouring was somewhat therapeutic. The process of colouring took me a lot longer than I had anticipated - but I do like the end result. 

I chose to scatter the bamboo rose coloured florals on somewhat of a diagonal on the page. I love that the way they are positions guides your eyes into the photos.

I framed the entire layout in some of the patterned paper in the kit. I love how the multiple colours featured in the paper compliment the coloured flowers so well.

Altenew Crafty Friends Blog Hop Day 1 + Giveaway

Hey everyone, welcome to Day 1 of the Crafty Friends Blog hop for Altenew. I am so excited to be a friend and fan of the amazing company Altenew. You possibly arrived here from Kristina's blog, thanks so much for stopping by and joining in on this hop!

Here is the layout that I have created to share with you today. 

Todays layout focus' on the things I love most; gorgeous papers and embellishments and storytelling. I am a big advocate for getting my stories (however short) onto my pages. I think that is the root of my passion for scrapbooking really; documenting our everyday. I have memories of going through photos after my grandparents passed and thinking to myself; who is in those photos, what are they doing, where were they? etc. Sometimes I would be lucky enough to find a small handwritten name on the back of a photo and a year. That was like finding gold and was few and far between. I think to myself how much I would love to be able to read the stories about what things were like in those photographs of my family in the past. To me, what I am doing is special, and even if it is not appreciated by those around me now, I am sure long after I am gone and my children are older it will be. That's the hope anyway and the big drive behind why I do what I do. Can anyone else relate to this?

My kiddies are growing up so quick. These photos were taken on a recent family trip away. The town we went to was having a big festival for the weekend. We went on a 'farm hop' and visited a few of the local farms in the area who opened their doors to the public on this day. This particular farm had free range chickens and produced eggs. The kids absolutely loved the baby chicks and spent so much time with them picking them up and talking to them. It was so adorable. 

轻蜂加速器_百度百科:轻蜂加速器，是一款手机上网加速APP [1] ，主要针对移动端海外服务器，为用户提供网络加速服务，加速状态下用户可在手游、视频、网页之间随意切换 [2] 。

The journaling for this page is not too detailed, but detailed enough that you know the who, what and where of these photos. 

The main feature of the page is a fussy cut floral from one of the patterned papers in the kit. I decided to only incorporate part of the design and make a feature of it on my page; nestling my photos within the florals and the journaling in the negative space. The colours within this kit were the perfect match to the colours within the photos. That can sometimes be a tough feat when you are wanting to use particular products on a layout. 

I used a combination of regular tape adhesive; I use the Altenew tape runner (its so quick and easy) and a foam adhesive to add a pop of dimension. I included the wood cranes in this layout, I know they are not chickens ha - but I took some crafty licence and figured there were birds so added them to a couple of places on the page. 

You will notice that I have three main areas of embellishments on my layout. One to the top right of the page next to the photo, one on the bottom left of the left side photo and one where the journaling is. I tend to create all layouts with this 'three' clusters rule and adding them to the layout in a way that forms a triangle. This helps to guide your eyes from one spot on the layout to another and so on, giving you a reading/viewing path on my page.

Anyways enough from me, onto the amazing details of how you can join in and win!
