Scrap Plezier Reveal

Hello Scrappy Friends

My Kaisercraft layout is revealed over at Scrap Plezier.

I have used the fabulous Kaisercraft Wandering Ivy collection again for this layout.  I love the mix of blues and green and florals and spots!

 

I used a piece of Blue Fields as my base.  I then took a piece of Ivy Wall and cut the ivy off of it.  I then cut each wooden plank, and distressed all edges.  I also distressed the edges of the base paper.

 

I then tore strips from Province and Blue Posy.

 

To put it all together, I laid the strips of Ivy Wall on the base, and laid my photo on top just to judge the positioning.  I adhered the Ivy Wall strips but left room at the top and bottom to layer the torn strips.  I took a length of sticker from the 12x12 sticker sheet, cut it and placed it top left and bottom right for more layers.  Before doing anything else, I took some gold mist, as well as Kaisercraft Antique Gold mist and splattered over the Ivy Wall strips.

 

I matted my photo in Archives and Blue Posy,  and then used some craft foam for dimension.  I took another sticker from the 12x12 sticker sheet and laid in on the Ivy Wall to be on the left hand side of my photo.  I then stuck my photo down, rolling up the edges of the bottom photo matt.  I added further stickers from the 12x12 sheet and well as some diecuts from the Collectibles.  The chipboard title and arrow heart were sprayed with Kaiser Antique Gold mist prior to adding the gold accents.

 

And that’s it!!  I hope I have inspired you to cut apart and distress some paper to use on your background.

Scrap Plezier Reveal

Hello Scrappy Friends,

I am back again with a Kaisercraft layout created for Scrap Plezier.

Have you seen a collection online that you werent so sure about and thought it wasn’t to your taste?  Well the Kaisercraft Misty Mountains ticked that box for me.  That is, until I saw it in real life.  It is nowhere near as purple as I expected it to be, therefore I used it for this layout of my nephew with his son.

 

I started by printing the photo in black and white, that helped with matching with the Misty Mountains collection. I used a piece of Light Leaks as the base for the layout.  I then tore 2 strips from a piece of Moody, and also tore a piece of Agate for the top layer. I then cut a piece from Light Leaks and distressed the edges, and also a piece from Moody and distressed all 4 edges of that as well.  I took another piece of Agate and cut a banner in one end, again distressing all edges.  I layered these under the photo and added half a doily.  I rolled some of the corners for dimension.  I added a branding strip from the Factory 42 collection as my title, and cut a saying out of the Divine paper.  I attached some heart stickers from the 12x12 Misty Mountains sticker sheet, added some stickers from one the Kaiser Stationery sticker books and finished off with some Kaisercraft Antique Gold mist splatters.

 

I love how this layout turned out and proved that what is first considered predominately female colours can be used successfully on a male layout.

Thanks for stopping by today.  I would love to see a layout you have created using the Misty Mountains collection.
