Baby Layout with Leaky Shed Studio Swirl

Hi, I created this cute Baby layout of my niece for Leaky Shed Studio today.  I do not normally scrap with lots of blank space but I knew I wanted several elements on this page; so I thought a plain background would enhance the photo, chipboard and paper piecing.  Plus I wanted to create something out of my wheel house.

Tips and Techniques:

I took out a white piece of Bazzill cardstock and sprayed some blue to go along with the color theme.

I then prepared my LSS chipboard with a couple of coats of Pro Art gesso.  I let it dry between coats.

I wanted my LSS chipboard to be yellow to add a complementary color to my layout.  So I embossed the all the chipboard with the yellow first.  

Then I decided to add sprinkles of the chunky white enamel in order to soften the yellow and give the layout a more shabby feel.

After preparing my chipboard and base for my layout I started to add my cute embellishments and paper piecing.

I love that photo of my niece and had a great time creating this layout for Leaky Shed Studio.  I hoped you enjoyed it.

March Playtime and Leaky Shed Studio

Hi first let me wish you all a Happy St. Patrick's Day!

My layout today is of my cute nephew as a baby.  My twins sisters and I would take our children to the Polliwog Park for picnics and playtime.  I themed the layout with frogs because of "polliwog" park. 

I used lots of Leaky Shed Studio chippies in this one.

My friends laugh at me because I usually scrapbook without pictures.  Well this time I had the pictures.  I also used Sizzix cute bug die cuts, QuicKutz frogs and also AccuCut lily pad die cuts.  I even had journaling, yeah me!

St. Patrick's Day Layout with Helmar

Today my layout is being featured over at Helmar!  I was asked to make something for St. Patrick's day so I came up with this simple St. Patty's layout.  I used the Helmar adhesive runner.  This runner is permanent and you can buy replacement cartridges to reload.

I had some St. Patty's paper in my stash so I wanted to use that up.  I should really join a "stash" board ...

I ran some bazzill cardstock through my computer to title my page then I started layering

I also used Helmar's zapdots.  These are great when you want some height and dimension in your work.

I wish you all a very happy St. Patrick's day and thank you for stopping by.
