I have created this layout using 2 sheets of the same patterned paper to demonstrate how the page can be decorated by cutting out
and using shapes as raised embellishments on top of a base page. |
|
This layout was created using two sheets of
Chatterbox Sun Sunburst Sky paper, blue cardstock, Chipboard cut out
"Dad," craft wire, MM eyelets (blue, pink and aqua),
yellow buttons, white letter tags, MM "Rummage" magnetic stamps,
black ink, Magic mount, super tape, needle, thread and Bazzill
Moments Textured stickers. |
|
Begin by creating your title "Dad"
title. Cut a piece of
Chatterbox Sun Sunburst Sky paper slightly larger than the
chipboard. Apply glue to the top surface of "Dad" and adhere to
the patterned paper so that the reverse side is visible. Allow
the glue to dry and trim away the excess paper from around the
letters leaving approximately a 3-5mm overhang. Using a sanding block, sanding stick or sand paper gently rub along edges of
the letters to remove over hang. Work from front to back to avoid peeling the
patterned paper off. For a distressed effect lightly sand the front of
the word. Mat with blue cardstock to create a border
approximately 2-3mm around the word. |
|
Mat your photos with blue cardstock and
adhere to your background piece of
Chatterbox Sun Sunburst Sky paper, as shown in the layout above. |
|
Thread wire through the holes in letter tags.
Hold the wire in place with super tape on the back. Adhere the
letters across the top of your page. Set aqua eyelets on either
side of your letter tags, as shown in the layout above. Thread ends of wire through to the back
and secure in place with super tape. |
|
Adhere "Dad" cut-out with Magic
Mount, as shown in the layout above. |
|
Use black ink to stamp wording directly onto
your photos. |
|
Cut out flowers from the remainder of your second
sheet of patterned paper. These will be used as raised
embellishments. Set blue & pink eyelets in flowers which have a small circle in the centre.
Sew buttons to the centre of some of the larger flowers, as
shown above. I have used yellow to compliment the colour of the sand
and because they seem to make the flowers look like pictures of the sun.
Using either 1, 2 or 3 layers of Magic Mount under individual flowers attach them to layout over the corresponding flowers on the base page for a raised effect. |
