Radical Wood Veneers


The Basic Grey Hipster Collection is an awesome collection.  One of the things that makes it so great are all the fantastic embellishments, one of them being the wood veneers.  They come with the Hipster I Want It All Bundle available at Fotobella.com.

Hipster Wood Veneers

There are a lot of options as to how to use these in your projects.  One fun way is to ink or chalk them.  For my project, I chose chalking inks that matched the color in the collection.  By rubbing the wood words with the ink pads, the color transferred to the wood with just a few coats.  


They absorbed the color very easily and came out vibrant and very awesome.


I added some other fun embellishments like twine, the postage stamps, etc.  

Thanks for stopping by and hope you have a fabulous day!

My Mind's Eye Remarkable Bundle



Hello-! Sarinda here with a quick gift wrap project.
I used my Silhouette to cut out the box. I wrapped a band of paper around the box and layered with a spritzed ink tag. Continuing to layer with My Mind's Eye Remarkable embellishments.


Just a quick thank you to Fotobella.com for always spoiling me with their amazing bundles. This one is My Mind's Eye Remarkable by Jen Allyson. The papers are nice and thick as well all the fun easy goodies to put together quick and fun projects. This is great for my Son. Just a reminder Father's Day is right around the corner.
Take Care and Happy Creating.

Rad Tag and Hipster Layout


If you love Basic Grey then the Hipster Collection is not one to be missed!  Using all the fabulous embellishments, I designed a tag that can be used for journaling and embellishment on a layout.  



As you can see from this photo, there were quite a few elements that went into making this tag.  All of these are included in the I Want It All bundle at Fotobella.com


The tag is a very quick and easy project, and I made it with the idea that I would use it on a layout.



And....here is the layout, featuring the tag...oooh ahhh!  


I can't say enough, how much I LOVE this collection....it has such a cool look that I just can't stop scrapbooking with it!  


Thanks for stopping by and hope you are enjoying this collection as much as I am!  

Have a fabulous day!

Pocket Full of Sunshine Card

The Mint Julep Bundle by Basic Grey might just be the most adorable bundle I have been so lucky to receive yet! The details of this bundle are amazing! It comes with so many embellishments you won't lack for any details for your projects! 

Here is my Pocket Full of Sunshine Card

With Zola Sheet, and a stencil, trace out the edges of the card.
Cut it out

  
 Trace a smaller rectangle shape on the Anna Sheet. I made a little detail on the corners.
Cut this out, and use double sided tape to attach it to the card base, centered.


With an oval stencil, trace and cut out an oval from the Marion Sheet.
Cut some detail strips from the Bonnie Sheet and place some under the Anna, and some on top. Place them however you feel.
Attach the oval on top with double sided tape.


With the rectangle stencil, trace around Pocket Full Of Sunshine print in the Snippets book. I cut the rectangle out, but made sure to keep the wavy edges of “sunshine” part.
Using either double sided tape or 3D dots, attach this on top of the oval on the card. 


Grab the red flower half circle chipboard sticker and attach on the left side, under the wavy ribbon.


Then place pieces from the Die-Cuts, transparencies and stickers around the bottom right edge of the “sunshine” piece.
Once you get them attached how you like them, add a Bottle Cap Sticker to the top. 


And there is your finished Pocket Full of Sunshine Card!
