The Deconstructed Layout - A Travel Book!

Wednesday, July 23, 2014

Hi everyone, it's Anita here today with another Deconstructed Layout. 


I have used some more of the Capture The Moment kit- I love this kit!!
They are on sale in the shop right now- be sure to stop by and pick one up!

I decided I wanted to make a travel book, making one page for every trip the hubs and I  have ever
taken together. The problem is,, way back in the day we didn't have cameras like we do now! 
There are a lot of  trips where I have no photos, but I can Google with the best of them!

So I made a list of all the trips I have no photos for and started looking. 
I searched Google images and found some great graphics for most of 
the things I needed. 

Our very first trip was to Long Beach, CA to see the Spruce Goose and Queen Mary. 
I found some postcards (non-royalty) for my page! I printed them out on heavy cardstock and 
trimmed them to the size I needed.

The album I am using is 6x8- and I want to put a LOT of ages in it, so thin pages are a must.

To get the layers I like so much but still keep the page thin, I used several
of the tags from the Capture the Moment Kit and layered then behind my photos. 
I also added layers on top of my photos- here I used one of the Prima Lace Stickers.

On this photo I stamped right on top of it using the Elle's Studios Everyday Moments stamp set.
I stamped in white in first, then black ink to give it more depth.

Brads and die cut stickers round out the rest of the layout. by using these flat 
elements, I was able to pack a lot onto this little layout!

Be sure to stop by the store and see all the wonderful goodness that Barb has for offer!
Thanks so much for stopping by today!
Have a wonderful day!!

Celebrate Everyday with Channa!

Wednesday, July 16, 2014

Good Morning all, 

Channa here, to share with you a card today!

My favorite products from the shop at this moment are the Paper packs of 7 Dots.
Today i made a card with the Nature walk pack. 


This paper collection contains of 6 double sided papers, 1 word sticker sheet, 1 element sticker sheet, 1 die cut tag sheet and 1 die cut element sheet. 

On this card i have used 1 or two things of each sheet. 


This collection has a very rustic, vintage, nature look. With so many extra die cuts and stickers several projects can be made with this kit. This card is the first of mine but many more will follow.


Besided the collection kit i used several items from my stash. For example the gold color springs are from broken washing line pegs always nice to give a little steampunk edge to your project. As you can see the card has a few layers. Under the tag i used some packing material, first i painted it gold and after i used some bronze embossing powder. Same for the dragon fly, i stamped it, painted and embossed it. 
It was a fun card to make, hope you enjoyed it also. 

Thank you for passing by and have a great day,

The Deconstructed Layout with Anita!

Wednesday, July 9, 2014

Hi everyone, it's Anita here today with another
Deconstructed Layout tutorial.


I hope you have been enjoying this series and I would love to hear your feedback!

Today I an using the Capture The Moment kit and some fabulous papers from 7 Dot Studios papers and I love them! Be sure to hop over to the store to see the whole line- you will swoon I promise! 

Here is a look at my layout
I don't normally use these colors, but the Nature Walk papers by 7 Dot Studios were just so beautiful!

 I started by using a craft knife to trim around the design on this paper. I wanted the emblem to show on the finished page so I trimmed around it and tucked the second layer underneath it.


To create my background, I used the Prima stamps included in the Capture the Moment kit, they were perfect for my project. I arranged all of the stamps onto a block at the same time, then stamped all over the background paper. I was not overly concerned with putting them in a perfect pattern- I just wanted to cover the page.

I wanted a little more dimension on the second layer,  so I used  stencil and some metallic paint. 

I love the die cuts that are part of the line- I layered some on and around the photos. 

Along the side of the layout I added washi tape from Hazel & Ruby and then layered die cut stickers from the Nature Walk  Complete Collection Kit. I trimmed the edges of some of them for texture.

I fussy cut the butterflies and flowers, then used watercolor paints and my Koi Water Brush to add a little bit of color.  The Moments sticker is from Prima and is included in the kit. The arrow stamps are from the Love You More Set.

All these embellishments are from the kit- I love how they all work together!


Thanks so much for stopping by today!

Channa and 7 Dots Studio Cold Country

Wednesday, June 4, 2014

Good morning all, it's Channa here with a layout made with 
the "Cold Country" line of 7 Dots Studio. 

As you might have seen in the Frosted designs store we have some wonderful papers of 7 Dots studio. I think they are just amazing and lovely to use especially for some Mixed media messy stuff. 

So here is my creation:


I am always searching trough my pictures to find a nice picture to use for a layout, if I can find something.........I Sometimes just wander around in the center of Athens, Greece ....
and that is the time you find some hidden gems. 
Like this beautiful graffiti painting!!


This picture was perfect for some mixed media mess. 
So off I went with sprays, ink, lace, modeling paste, cork, buttons, paint..... to make a beautiful mess. 


If you have not seen this Gorgeous paper line yet, have a look in the store. 


Thank you all for passing by, I hope you enjoyed my layout.
And I wish you a great day!



The 7 Dots products are included in our current sale!


This is what I used from the Frosted designs Store:
