Nice Normal Family | Rachel Dutko

Hi everyone!

Rachel back with you today.

For my share today I have used a mash-up of different Flutterby collections,

but the beauty of Anita's style means that all the collections

can be used so well together.

I have fussy cut a quote from a 'We Are' Everyday Etc card for my title.

I have layered several Everyday Etc filler cards under my photo - I have used some

'Fair Dinkum Chrissy' Everyday Etc filler cards as it was a photo from Christmas day,

and an Everyday Etc filler card

from the 'Good Vibes Only' collection to match my dress.

I fussy cut a 'this is us' frame and added a flair button and page tab.

I added some Die Cut Bits and Bobs from 'Fair Dinkum Chrissy' and 'We Are'.

I finished off the page with some ink splatters, doodling and some enamel dots.

Thanks for looking

Well we are nearing the Christmas season, and I have

a cute layout to share with you today.

I have decided to scrap the letter my son wrote to Santa for Christmas last year.

I have used a Fair Dinkum Chrissy Everyday Etc filler card under my photo.

I have added some Fair Dinkum Chrissy wood veneer bits around my page.

I painted the 'Santa' piece black for my title, as well as some stars.

I have used some Christmas enamel dots , a page tab and some super cute

pieces from the Fair Dinkum Chrissy Die Cut Bits & Bobs pack.

Keep your eyes peeled for a brand new collection release later in the week!!

Dec 25 - Family Traditions by Allara Bamforth

Happy Hump Day!,

Over the weekend when I was thinking about what to create for this post, I realised it was only 3 months (yes 3!) till Christmas. So I thought I would create something with the fabulous "Fair Dinkum Chrissy" Collection to help me cope with this looming event! Don't get me wrong, I love Christmas and gettting together with family but it always just comes around so quick and I'm almost never prepared!

For this layout I've picked some pinky coloured cardstock. I've been only using white lately to create mixed media background but thought it was time to delve back into the multitiudes of coloured cardstock I have laying around. Using the Halftone stencil with some transparent gel medium mixed with some Flutter Colour Paint - Fire Engine Red I positioned this through the middle of the page. Once it's dry I've flicked over some Flutter Colour paint in Artic White and down the sides added some gold glitter washi tape from my stash.

Next I've layered my photo of my family taken last Christmas with Everyday Etc and Filler Cards from the Fair Dinkum Chrissy collection. Also cut strips of the Filler cards to frame each side of the photo piece.

The Family Traditions title was also cut out of the Everyday Etc cards. A few tabs from the Fair Dinkum Chrissy Page Tabs were also added to the photo as well as some snippet strips. To finish off I've added a Flair Button 'Eat Lots and be Merry' and used my white paint pen to adde some highlights.

Till Next Post,

Stay Wild | Rachel Dutko

Hi everyone!

For my share today I am trying my hand at scrapping a super-sized photo!

My photo is 8" x 12", so a super-sized photo calls for super-sized embellishments!

This was a bit of a stash-busting layout for me - I've used lots of elements from

various Flutterby collections,

but they all work so well together and can be combined easily

as each collection reflects Anita's unique and identifiable style.

I've used some Everyday Etc cards to add some quotes to my page -
the 'Stay Wild' and 'Always Find Adventure' from the Super Cool collection

and the 'Today We are Making Memories' from the
Good Vibes Only Everyday Etc cards.

I have used some co-ordinating Everyday Etc filler cards as layering pieces.

I have also added the 'Toys Not Included' quote from the Fair Dinkum Chrissy Bits & Bobs pack.

I have added a flair, page tab, some washi from the Good Vibes Only kit and some Snippet Strips.

"You Rock" by Rachel Dutko

Hi everyone!

Today I have a bright and fun 12x12 layout of my boys to share-

"You Rock"

I created my background by adding some paint, then randomly added some lighter blue paint through a Halftone stencil.

Once the paint was dry I then traced through the stencil with a fine Sharpie pen in random areas to highlight the dots.

I fussy cut my 'You Rock' title, as well as a star from some "Super Cool' Everyday Etc cards.

I also used some 'Super Cool' Everyday Etc cards under my photo.

I used a 'Fair Dinkum Chrissy" Everyday Etc filler card under my title.

I then added some Snippet Strips (from the Monochrome , Warm, and Cool sets) around the page,

as well as some enamel dots and

some wood veneer stars that I coloured with acrylic paint.

The aviator sunnies from the 'Good Vibes Only' Die Cut Bits and Bobs pack

worked perfectly on this page.

I also added a flair, a Kraft tab photo cut out, a ticket, and a page tab

from the Kraft Notes 5, Baby Boy and Blackboard Notes 1 sets.

"Family Adventure" by Rachel Dutko

Hi everyone

I'm so excited to be guest designing at Kraft Plus
this month representing Flutterby Designs!

Here is a look at this month's challenge-

To begin my page I applied some acrylic paint through a 'Sugar Sprinkles' stencil.
Once it was dry I roughly traced around each shape to give it more of a hand-drawn feel.

The brief was fussy-cutting as well as the sketch, so I decided to fussy cut my photo!

I also fussy cut a frame from a "Super Cool' Everyday Etc card, and the cool sneaker,
also from the "Super Cool" Everyday Etc card pack.

I backed my photo with some Everyday Etc filler cards from the Fair Dinkum Chrissy collection. I've used the 'Family' die cut from the Fair Dinkum Chrissy Bits & Bobs pack as my title.

I've also added some wood veneer 'Wheels', which I painted black.

I've added a 'Life Is Good' and a camera flair, labels, a couple of page tabs
('fabulous', and 'you're awesome'), enamel dots and some snippet strips.

I hope you can head over to Kraft Plus and check out the challenge.
You could be in the running to win some fab Flutterby goodies!!

"Super Hero Christmas" by Rachel Dutko

Hi everybody

Today I have another share from our Christmas Day last year,
using the awesome Fair Dinkum Chrissy collection.

I created my background using sprays, and some
Colour Blast Colour Paste through a 'Mmm Pie' stencil.

I used some Everyday Etc. filler cards as my layers under my photo.
I've also added 2 Fair Dinkum Chrissy page tabs, and a paper clip
from the Fair Dinkum Chrissy kit.

I've used the cute Santa, as well as some stars, from the

Die Cut Bits & Bobs pack. I've also used a flair button.

I've used the 'DEC 25' from the Wood Veneer pack as my title.

I've also added several 'Kraft' sticky quotes which highlight the crazy fun
of my photo, as well as some Christmas enamel dots.

Don't forget there's only 2 more days until the release of the "Good Vibes Only" collection!

White Christmas - Rachel Dutko

Hi Flutterby peeps!

Today I have a page celebrating a Christmas tradition

between my sister and I - our favourite summer wine

from right here in the Barossa Valley.

I started by flicking through the 'Fair Dinkum Chrissy' Everyday Etc filler cards pack

and pulling out all the pink, silver and aqua cards to build my layers.

I was inspired to build my layout around the quote from the cut apart

from 'Fair Dinkum Chrissy' Frame 49.

I added several quotes and shapes from the 'Fair Dinkum Chrissy' Wood Veneer Bits.

I kept them raw to match the wood grain of the 'Dear Santa please bring wine'

flair button (from 'Fair Dinkum Chrissy' Flair Buttons Set 2).

I added some silver stars from the 'Fair Dinkum Chrissy'
Die Cut Bits & Bobs pack.

I also added some 'ghost' stars by tracing through the

'Stargazed' stencil with a silver gel pen around the page.

I finished my page by adding some splatters in different shades of pink.

Thanks for looking

Dec 25 | Belinda Spencer

Hello Flutterby Designs peeps!

Belinda here today to share a layout featuring the fabulous Fair Dinkum Chrissy collection.

I love all of the beach elements in this range as my little family and I quite often head to the beach on Christmas Day.

'Dec 25' Layout

I began by swiping some texture paste over a couple of rows of the awesome 'He Said, She Said' Stencil. I LOVE this stencil and I'm pretty sure I am going to be using it a LOT!

Once he texture paste was dry, I diluted some Tropicana Teal and Arctic White Flutter Colour Paints with water. I also spritzed my background with water and sloshed the teal paint around on it. I gave it a little time to dry and then I lifted the background and applied more paint letting it run down the page to create some lovely drips.

I used the cute 'Bubble O'Fun' Mini Stencil to add some subtle white bubbles to the layout too.

Next I layered on all of my bits and pieces as well as the photo. I cut the 'Dec 25' Wood Veneer bit into pieces, painted it with several coats of white gesso and added to the page.
