PLK FAITH ~ 20 ~ SOPHIE

Hey y'all, guess who's back? I'm here with a layout using the March PLK, Faith! I just had enough left over from my mini album to create this layout. I probably even have enough for another layout. I have so much ephemera left over.

While creating my mini album I decided I wanted to use this colour scheme in my next layout. Kind of obsessed with this colour palette at the moment. Check out my Pinterest feed if you need proof.
I think this would've looked a lot better with a black and white photo. I just didn't have any with me.

The patterned paper I used was cut up left overs from my mini album. A had a couple of 6x4 cards left over but I didn't choose to use them.


I also added a peg from the BPK, Aria and a tiny word sticker from the Confetti range. These weren't available in the March kits but you can find them the April BPK. Yay, now I have two packs. That was not sarcastic by the way.


Ok, so here's the thing. I did make a process video but the internet on my laptop has completely stopped working. Which is just what you need during the last week of Uni right? And when you have a video to upload. It's been like that all week so hopefully it will start working again soon and I can share it with you.

Thanks for stopping by today,

TSK INDI ~ BUT FIRST LET ME TAKE A SELFIE ~ ADELE

What's happening scrapping lovelies?!

Hello, hello, I am back today with my blog post using the March TSK Indi (WHICH WAS SO FREAKING AWESOME!).

I adored all the Crate Paper goodies and have had a ball playing with the goodies from the Confetti and Craft Market collections.


When I saw the beautiful floral Crate Paper paper (hehe) I knew I wanted to scrap this photo and echo the floral piece in my hair. I added some water colour pencils to the background to make a soft, feminine feel and use the alphas from the Crate Paper Confetti sticker sheet and the Adorn Thickers in the TSK to spell out my song title.



I was super excited to get these gorrrrgeous Confetti embellished pockets the the BPK Aria this month and further decorated one use elements from the Confetti ephemera pack and sticker sheet, as well as one of the gold glitter clothes pegs. This layout was gold to the max!! 

I added the number 2 as this selfie was taken just before I had a photoshoot for a friend's wedding photography business with my hubby. 



Finally, I added a few finishing details including those amazing Crate Paper word stickers (UM, OBSESSED!) and a roller stamp and Heidi Swapp gold colour shine from my stash.


I will be back later in the week with a process video for you on my next layout, stay tuned and have a lovely week! xxx

PLK FAITH ~ MINI ALBUM ~ SOPHIE

Hello everyone! Today I'm so excited to share with you this little mini album I created using the PLK,  Faith. I won't be creating with the TSK this month which is totally fine with me because this kit is AMAZINGLY gorgeous. I'm so happy I got the chance to play with it instead. The Confetti range is so fun. I love the colours, the motifs and those tiny word are to die for.

Project Life cards are so perfect for making mini albums and I found decorating it is much like embellishing your PL spreads. Not that I've ever done any project lifing before. As this kit is themed around birthday and parties and all that good stuff I decided to scrap some photo's from a little photo shoot I had on my birthday. It was so cold that day. I don't remember the last time I wore jeans and it rained on my birthday, if ever.




Below I added a wood veneer arrow from the BPK, Aria. That gorgeous glitter heart is also from the Bits and Piece's Kit.


I made a pocket to insert journalling cards into, and also included one from the BPK.


I can totally see why all you PLer's love label and tiny word stickers. I loved layering them as you can probably see. I am officially obsessed. My tiny word stickers are from the Confetti collection which were already in my stash.



I was at Uni when I created this so unfortunately not within reach of a sewing machine. Otherwise, I would've sewed the hell out of this album. Maybe I will when I get home.
This is a pocket from the BPK which I am going to add a journaling card too.





I also created a very long process video. At the end I do I flicked through of the album for you to get a better idea of what it looks like all together so you can jump to that if you don't want to hear me ramble on for 18 minutes. If you do make sure you grab yourselves a cuppa. Hope you enjoy it.
