Girls Just Wanna Have Fun ll Chrissi Mannix

Hello Lovelies

Chrissi again today with another layout using the new Rad Retro Collection.

This was a picture of me on my way to The Flutterby Create by The Lake 2019 Retreat. Had to stop off and get something for woine rime.

This is a really quick and simple layout, alot different to my usual. Using some Flutter Colour Paint as my base.

 But I loved the Girls just Wanna have fun every day etc card so much, I wanted it to be the main focus of the page. So no real embellishing on here. I kept it very simple.

Don't forget, the new collection is available on the website to purchase now.

Happy Scrapping

RAD ll Chrissi Mannix

Hello Lovelies

With the launch of the new Rad Retro Collection, I have a new project to show you.

This layout would have to be one of my absolute favourites I've ever made. 

I used one of the Every Day Etc Cards as my colour inspiration for this layout. I started with some Flutter Colour paint for my background to match the card. Then using the new This Way Art Foamies, I used black paint to add to my background. 

I was in love with this background from the beginning lol. Then I went through the Every Day Etc Filler cards to find some layers for my photo.

As I love to do often, I have used one of the Every Day Etc Cards for my title. In this case I fussy cut the RAD out and used it for my title. 

I decided I wanted to add more to my title, so I used some alphabet stamps to complete my title.

With my layout and background as busy as it was, I didn't embellish this layout much, but I'm really happy with how it comes together. 

Dont forget to come check out what the rest of the DT do with this fabulous new collection.

Rad Retro is available to purchase from the website.

Happy Scrapping Lovelies

Morning! Happy Friday,

I'm up on the blog today with an Art Journal Page using fabulous Flutterby Design Goodies!

When ever I'm creating layouts for the blog, I usually throw any left over paint or use up the paint on my brayer in my Art Journal. This is how this double page came to life! 

The background has been started in this way, using the Flutter colour paint. I've either brayered it on or flicked and smudged it over the spread. I've then used some of the Art Foamie stamps to create some extra background interest, then mixed my paint with some clear Gel Medium and used a variety of stencils to layer it up further.

I love all the quirky sayings and quotes on the Everyday Etc Cards, so using them for your Art Journal pages is a really great idea. As well as cutting out shapes from the Filler Cards.

Art Journal pages are a great way to practice different ideas for your mixed media layouts. Once you have a collection of Flutterby Design stencils, paints and stamps, creating some Art Journal pages is a great way to use your supply.

Thanks for taking a peek.

Hi everyone!

While we are eagerly awaiting the new release this Friday, 

I am digging into my stash and have created 

this layout using the 'Creative Chaos' range.

I have created my background by scraping some Flutter Colour paint 

onto a piece of Kaisercraft pattern paper with a palette knife.

 I fussy cut the 'create' word from an Everyday Etc card.

I also fussy cut the scissors for another embellishment.

I used some Everyday Etc cards to back a cut file from Cut To You.

I also layered some Everyday Etc cards under my photo.

I added a flair, a page tab and some enamel dots.

I also added a star from Charm's Creations.

Don't forget to set your alarms for the new release 'RAD RETRO'

this Friday (22nd November) at 8pm AEDST.

Thanks for looking

Stay Weird ll Chrissi Mannix

Hello Lovelies,

Today I have a page in my brain dump journal for you. This journal is my go between. Its a mix of journalling, art journalling and memory keeping photos. Rightly called my brain dump, as i use it to unload alot of whats going on in my head, as well as adding photos that I love.

I adore this page so much. This was a fun photo taken at a wedding I went to back in August.

I decided to fussy cut the photo to make it more the focus of the page. I've seen Anita do this in her projects and I love the look it gives.

I've used some of my fave Flutterby items in this page. Of course my flutter colour paint to start my background. Then I added my art foamies- we know how much I LOVE using the Flutterby Designs Art Foamies. But my favorite part of this page, is my giant title- I was so happy it fit.

I created this with the fabulous Large Alpha Stencil Set. I traced inside the stencil then filled it in with paint. This is an awesome way to make your own, big titles.

I hope you like my page. Dont forget to come back and check out what the other girls are up to later in the week.

Happy Wednesday!

I'm back on the blog today with a stash busting layout using some of my favourite Flutterby Designs bits and pieces with a bright and colourful layout.

The background was created with some of my favourite Flutter Colour Designs paint from the Brights set which I've used my brayer to paint across half of my background on the right and then just some of the excess on the left. Subtly I've stamped some of the Art Foamies Fill It In stamps and also some of the Edgies beside my photo. I've splattered some white paint over my background to match some of the design in the title.

I used Everyday Etc Cards to layer my photo and chose a matching title. I added a Page tab and some Die Cut Bits and Bobs to the top right and bottom right of the photo. To the bottom right I added a Flair Button and to the bottom left I used a wood veneer piece that I painted in matching colours.
To the top left and bottom right I added some Sticky Quotes and finished off using some heart stickers.

Although everything I used was from different collections, I was able to find so many mix and match pieces to create something colourful!!

Thanks for taking a peek!

Till next post,

Hi everyone!

Rachel with you today on the blog 

with my latest layout to share with you.

To create my background I cut some rainbow-striped 

Everyday Etc filler cards into individual colours.

I then matched these colours with some Gelatos to create the rainbow background.

I cut the word 'LOVE' from an Everyday Etc card from the 'Parent Of The Year' collection.

 

I matted my photo with a white Everyday Etc filler card 

and added a white fussy cut to tone down the rainbow background.

 

I only added a few embellishments, to keep the rainbow background 

as the main design element of my page.

I added a flair button, a sticker, some washi, 

a page tab, enamel dots and some thread.

It wouldn't be a Rachel layout without adding some black ink splatters!!

Thanks for looking
