Waste Not.... | 6x6 Paper | RamblingsofGeo

Waste Not...

Something different from me this month, a pink happy 12 x 12 layout as its my Birthday today! - woooo 

I am very conscious of the amount of waste that we get from scrapbooking, and you will always find me grabbing things out the table bins at crops, yep, i said it, im a scrappy bin diver, and proud! 

One mans junk, is another mans treasure!

For this layout, i used the branding strips in my 6x6 paper pads to layer up behind my photo to make a nice colourful background. 

I have tried to completely finish a Pink Paislee 6x6 pad, the Fancy Free one. I have 11.5 pages left, and no unused branding strips. Wooo

It feel so good to use things up!

Please also check out the process video of this layout, if you give it a go please leave a comment and share on our facebook group.

Things are Looking Up / Jackie Ashton / 4x6 photograph

Hi UK Scrappers, Jackie here with my take on the this months challenge, use a 6x4 photograph on your layout.  When I first started to scrapbook, all my photographs where standard 6x4 but over the years I have used various sized photographs on my pages and hardly use standard 6x4 anymore, so this theme was a welcome change from the sizes I normally use, and one I will remember to do more of in the future.

Paris - Things are Looking Up

I kept my layout minimalistic as I wanted the main focus to be my photograph, and having the colourfulness of the patterned paper I didn't  think the page needed too many embellishments.

I used the lovely colourful collection from Shimelle - Box of Crayons and stamped some words on the white cardstock.

These acyclic I got whilst in Paris and work perfectly with  this layout, as well as the wood veneer.

The title strips come from the cut-a-part sheet from the same collection.

If you don’t scrap with 6x4 photographs, why not give it a go, we would love to see what you create in our Facebook group.

Till next time ...

Fun and Games | Maria La Chica | Mood Board

Hello scrap addicts!

It's Maria here with you today, with a bright and fun layout inspired by this month's moodboard:

As you can see, there's tons to be inspired about! However, for me what jumped out the most was the frames in the centre of the image.

So here is my layout!

I have used Shimelle's latest collection, which is super colourful and bright, exactly what I needed!

And I've got a process video in case you want to see how I created this layout and want to hear me rumble! :)
