Kick Ass | Sue Plumb

Hi Flutterby peeps!
Sue Plumb here with you today to share another of my Flutterby projects with you. This page holds a special place in my heart. It features a photo of five members from the current kick ass Flutterby Designs DT, and was taken when we got together at the recent 'Create by the Lake' retreat. I thought it was the perfect subject to pair with the recently released 'Flawsome' collection.

I started this page with a black cardstock background, which I swiped with some 'Tropicana Teal' and 'Green Limousine' Flutter Colour paints.

Then I gathered together some of the 'Flawsome' Everyday Etc filler cards, which I layered together to form a mat for my photo, and topped with some frayed gauze.

I then added some dimension to my page using the 'Bubble O'Fun' stencil and some Colour Blast Colour Paste.

I used the kick ass 'Flawsome' Everyday Etc card for my title, which I tucked alongside my photo, then added one of the white Sticky Quotes on top of it. I also added a coordinating Page Tab tucked in behind my photo.

I created my sub title using one of the coordinating 'Flawsome' wood veneer pieces, which I coloured with a Posca pen; added some alpha stickers, and the 'Flutterby' logo (cut from the edge of a Page Tabs sheet.

To embellish my page I added a flair button; some twisted coloured wire (attached with staples); and a few black Tiny Sticky Quotes.

I finished off with some white gel pen doodling, my handwritten journaling and some splattered white ink spray.

Thanks so much for stopping by today so I could share this with you. I will be back again in a couple of weeks with another project. Until then, happy scrapping!

Embrace your flaws....

Hey Flutterby Peeps, 

FLAWSOME!!!... I seriously cannot get enough of this collection!!!

I think I'm up to a dozen layouts, and I still have ideas buzzing in my head. 

Here is another grungy layout in my signature style, with my all time fav technique... messy stitching. 

Ive used a pink mixed media 'Flawsome' Filler Cards for my background and fussy cut the 'Embrace your Flaws' from the 'Flawsome' Everyday Etc Cards. Add to that a punched out book tab from the black card in the filler pack, and a 'Fearless' tab from the 'FLAWSOME' Die Cut Bits & Bobs. 

A simple page with only a few elements, that all combined pack a nice visual punch. 

There is also some limited edition kits in the shop if your looking for some awesome pages to get your mojo flowing... get in quick before they sell out! 

Love and Light

Hi again Flutterby Fans.  This weeks page I'm showcasing the awesome Xtreme Teen collection.

I've done quite a few pages with this set but I don't think one of them has featured a teenager.  The collection is so perfect for lots of stages.

My cardstock once again has been created with a gelli press and some paint.  I have also put a layer of moulding paste over the top of this with the Macaroon 5 stencil.

I have used Everyday Etc and filler cards for my photo cluser and added a couple of  page tabs to this.

The wood veneer title has been painted with Black Mahem and Grape Soda Flutter Colour Paint.

Finishing off the layout is a little cluster of sticky quotes and enamel dots.

Flawsome | Belinda Spencer

Hello Flutterby peeps!

Belinda here today to share another layout featuring the totally brilliant Flawsome collection.

'Flawsome' Layout

I started with that fabulous 'Flawsome' Stencil that I am totally in love with. I swiped some Golden Light Molding Paste over it with a palette knife and dried with a heat gun. I spritzed some water over the page, diluted some Flutter Colour Paint and applied it to the background with a soft wet paintbrush. I used Flutter Colour Paint in Grape Soda, Raspberry Punch and Tropicana Teal.

I used just one Everyday Etc Filler Photo Card under my photo which co-ordinated perfectly with the paint colours.

I then piled on the wood veneer, die cut bits and bobs, flair button and stickers. Oh and THAT quote from the Everyday Etc Photo Cards. I just love it. Suits me perfectly. LOL

Here's what I used:

FLAWSOME:

- Everyday Etc Photo Cards

- Everyday Etc Filler Photo Cards

- Die Cut Bits & Bobs

- Sticky Quotes

- Wood Veneer

- Flair

- Flawsome Stencil

FLUTTER COLOUR:

- Grape Soda

- Raspberry Punch

- Tropicana Teal

I hope you are loving this range as much as I am. Don't forget to share your creations in the Flutterby Inspiration HQ Facebook group HERE. We would love to see what you have made and leave some love.

Thanks for stopping by the blog.

Cheers

Belinda

Embrace your flaws | Tamara Buckler

Hey Hey, Flutterby Peeps,

I'm back again today to share with you another layout that I created with the awesome Flawsome range!

I'm loving that there is a softer, more pastel side to this range. My amazing team mate Belinda Spencer has been showing this so amazingly in her last few layouts (check it out here & here!). So I've stepped over to the softer side and given it a crack!

I've mixed up some of FlutterColour Paint in Raspberry Punch, Aquamarine Dream, and Sunshine Yellow with some Whipped Spackle to make the beautiful pastel colours that I have run through the always fabulous 'I Heart You' stencil. I then layered up some strips of the Flawsome Everyday etc Filler Cards, as well as matted my photo, to create some beautiful pastel layers behind my pic.

To create this title I fussy cut the sentiment from one of the Flawsome Everyday etc Photo Cards, and popped it up on some foam dots for extra impact.

With so much texture and pretty colour going on, I didn't need to do much to embellish the page. I bought in some of the Flawsome Wood Veneers, Page Tabs, and a Mad About You Flair Button. And then finished things off with some White Tiny Sticky Quotes, and some beautiful enamel dots. Too easy!

Thanks for stopping by to check us out, and I hope you have lots of scrappy good time planned for this weekend!

Big Loves,

Bloom & This one time...| Krisy Podolak

Hi Flutterby Lovelies,

Krisy back again today to share some more inspiration.  Today I have two layouts.  The first is a bit pretty and inspirational using the new "Flawsome" Collection the second is a little laugh at being young and silly when travelling the world.  I will warn you the photos may be a little graphic for some but do know that everyone was a willing participant and it was just a bit of fun.

First I will share my Bloom layout.  This layout came about after I did a Fiona Paltridge class at the 2017 Create By the Lake Flutterby Retreat this year. If you ever have a chance to do Fiona's watercolour class I highly recommend it.  It is so much fun and the technique is so versatile.  I just want to paint flowerly blooms everywhere.

Now on to my this one time layout...The word dumbass is what inspired this layout.  In our twenties my husband (then boyfirend) and I spend 2 years working and living in Scotland and backpacking around Europe,Canada and America.  So this is an ode to that and the fun we had.  As I said the pictures some will find inappropriate but we are not the only "kids" that have photos like this especially those who have travelled.  There are so many appropriate statues that call for poses around the world.  These ones are from Oslo.

Thanks for stopping by today.

Krisy xx

Go BIG or Go Home | Sue Plumb

Hi peeps! Sue Plumb here, and today I have a project to share that was created using some of the goodies from the new 'Flawsome' collection. (I actually completed this one while I was away on the Flutterby retreat!) I scrapped a Snap Chat selfie that I took with my fave vampire filter (isn't it fabulous? I love how the blood trickles out when you open your mouth!)

I started with a mixed media background for this page - first some black gesso smeared onto my cardstock, then I mixed some 'Grape Soda' Flutter Colour paint with a little water and splattered it around my page using a small brush.

I knew EXACTLY which quote from the new collection that I was going to pair with my photo and that was the reason for my colour choices for this page. (Could I have used anything else but - I already know I am going to hell. At this point it's really GO BIG or go home?! It was perfect!) I fussy cut the quote from one of the 'Flawsome' Everyday Etc cards.

I used a number of different filler cards for my layered photo mat behind my photo. Some were from the coordinating 'Flawsome' pack, and some from the 'Happy Together' filler card set. I also added a page tab from the 'Flawsome' sheet; some frayed gauze; and black cotton thread to my layers.

The next thing I did was to create a small cluster alongside my photo. I used the die cut quote from the 'Flawsome' Bits & Bobs pack, a flair button and a black Tiny Sticky Quote.

Next, I added a few circle wood veneer pieces (which I coloured with a white paint pen) randomly around my page and a Charms Creations arrow to help highlight my quote.

To finish off, I added a few stamped hell yeah phrases using a Typo stamp, and then splattered some black and red mist around.

Thanks for stopping by the Flutterby blog today so I could share this with you. If you've got some fun Snap Chat selfies stored on your phone, then get some printed and scrap them! They are sure to amuse you when you look back on them in years to come.

I will be back again in a couple of week's time with another project to share. Until then, happy scrapping!
