Scrapbook Garden Design Kit - Flutter By Baby

This is my 2nd design for this months kit

for the Scrapbook Garden

I began by taking the border off the Graphic 45

Butterfly Specifies 12 x 12 paper.

Next I too one of the photos from my collection

of my Auntie Bessie and my cousin Jane Wilson

I trimmed the picture and sliced it into 3

I matted the picture on Bazzills Sugar Cream cardstock

and rounded the corners

Next I took another piece of Sugar Cream

and using some scrunched up Bubble wrap

and some distress inks i added some colour to the paper

to match the butterflies Id cut out of the

Butterfly Specifies

I kept adding colours until I was happy with the result.

I cut some corners from the border Id cut earlier

and added them to the 12 x 12

I then went on to add a Bazzill cardstock matt of Blue Lagoon

once again matching it to the butterfly colours.

Using a Tim Holtz Alteration die I cut out the birdcage

and cut away the centre bars of the cage.

I stuck down the butterflies inside the cage

After adding a couple trying to escape

I added a flurry of them soaring to the top corner of the page.

And my title cut from the Blue Lagoon

I like this photo on this layout I think they go together well

Thanks for stopping by its much appriciated

Scrapbook Garden Kit - Layout 1

This is the first layout for this months kit for

The Scrapbook Garden

The picture is another from my Vintage collection

and its of my Mams cousin Peggy and her 2 friends .

Starting with some Bazzill cardstock in Blackbird

for the base i added a strip of Graphic 45 Olde Curiosity Shoppe

Another square of the same paper but the reverse side

 matted on Bazzill Sugar Cream

Using a Tim Holtz / Ranger Distress Marker in Black Soot

I inked up a rubber stamp of a cornflower

I mist sprayed the stamped image with cold water

allowing the image to run slightly then dried it

with a heat tool leaving a smudged look

I used the same marker to ink up some butterfly rubber stamps

but this time left the sharp image

I cut out the cornflower and added it to the layout

I added my title Peggy and Pals which I cut

from the Market Place alphabet

And lastly added the butterflies

by gluing only down the body to allow the wings to stand

proud of the layout

Thanks for stopping by and taking a peep.

I have another layout tomorrow from the same kit.
