Leaky Shed Studio "Scatter Joy" Card

Hi today I would like to share with you my "Scatter Joy" stacked flower card using Leaky Shed Studio "Bird Branch" chipboard.

I would like to start with photos of my process; using lots of paint, stickles and layers of paper.  I also used the Outlines Rubber stamps that I have had for eons but still love.  This flower stack is from the "Blossoms" series.

Painted the base of my Kraft Card with Art Anthology paint

Prepared my chipboard with a layer of Pro Art gesso

Painted on some dimensional paint on top of gesso

Painted the leaves with an alcohol ink Copic Marker

Used Ranger "emboss it" and some Gary Burlin clear embossing powder on the 

Leaky Shed Studio chipboard

Finished card with layers of bazzill, my stamped and fuzzy cut flowers and 

spreckles of white paint

Thank you for stopping by today, be sure to head on over to Leaky Shed Studio today and say hello.

Happy Scrapping ...

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!

Leaky Shed Studio Julie Nutting Canvas

Hi today my canvas is being featured over at Leaky Shed Studio.  I love the Julie Nutting chipboard dolls over at Leaky Shed Studio where they have several doll options.  I decided to create a cute canvas for my scrap room wall.

I used the following Leaky Shed Studio chipboard pieces.

Willow Flower

Julie Nutting Candy Doll

Large Spring Butterfly

For process photos of how I prepared my Leaky Shed Studio chipboard; please go on over to the blog today ... Leaky Shed Studio

Here are photos of my process after I prepared my chipboard pieces.

First I painted on thick gesso on my canvas.  Then I used strips of G45 "once upon a springtime" and latticed the strips of paper and spread a thin layer of Art Anthology sorbet "vegas gold" to adhere the paper.

I added the Art Anthology stencil "bubbles" with some "vegas gold" sorbet; then I spattered black delta paint on the canvas.   Next I used my finger to add a thick layer of the sorbet around the edges to frame the canvas.

Now that I have my base canvas the way that I want it, I start to layer on my embellishments and my chipboard.  

This next part is my favorite because it is when I add all the little tiny details and extras.  Notice the flowers, jewels, leaves, more lace ...

I appreciate you stopping by for a visit.  Please visit the Leaky Shed Studio blog for the first part of my post where I go through the process of preparing the chipboard.  

Happy Scrapping ...
