Edinburgh in Spring- scrapbooking page with Sharon
Hello all.
Its been a long time "between drinks" or layouts in this case !!! But rest assured, I have been busy behind the scenes creating some layouts using the lovely chipboard from Imagine If.
I have been slowly working through my travel photographs from a couple of years ago ( really? that long ago? seems only yesterday!!) Anyway.... this layout is a photograph I took in a park in Edinburgh and just loved the beautiful colours of spring.
This beautiful gazebo chippie was perfect to use in the garden themed layout, and of course this lovely frame chippie was perfect to use as a title holder.
I also used some of the Imagineif stencils in the background. Chevron Stencil and Bubbles Stencil
The page itself started off as plain white piece of paper, and I used blue and white paint to create the background, and used the stencils to add splashes of lime green and black paint.
The chipboard, I chose to keep simple. I painted the gazebo in white gesso, and then using mica paint, painted the little leaves and the butterflies to highlight them a tad more. The frame I painted in white gesso and added a bit of clear glitz over the top to add a little sparkle. ( Does not show in the photo unfortunately)
Thanks for looking

Shrewsbury Castle - scrapbooking page with Sharon
Hi everyone.
Another travel photo scrapped for the album. This time a photograph from England. I happened to have the Prima Tales of Us paper on hand which was perfect colour and feel for the page, and with the addition of chipboard and stencil work, I could not have been more happy with the final result.
I had lots and lots of fun with this page. I knew immediately that I wanted to use the brick stencil to create a background over the patterned paper. Using crackle paste made the brickwork look old and rustic.

I loved this chipboard sign that I used to hold the title. Again I just used the white paint to match the crackle paste bricks and the lace. you can find the sign chippie here
For the chip title, I used some minc foil over the top of some “sticky embossing powder” I used a gold foil, to just add a little bit of a “royal” touch to the page. You can find the Family history word here

A BEAUTIFUL LIFE- scrapbooking page with Sharon
Hi everyone.
Sharon back again with another mixed media scrapbooking page.

This beautiful photograph of Lake Wanaka did not require a lot of treatment to make it pop. The addition of the imagine if chippie and stencil was just what the doctor ordered on this one .
I started off with the bubble stencil,(which can be found here) and used texture paste, which immediately had micro beads pressed into it for some subtle bling in the background.
I used the chip flourish (which can be found here)to accent the photo, and just painted it with white paint to overlap the photograph.
The title, I used some Minc spray, which was splurged over the title in a distressed way ( Love this title by the way….isn't it such a pretty mix of words and butterflies?) I left the spray to dry, then used the teal minc foil over the top. The foil then just sticks to the spray areas, leaving the others blank. I loved the way the teal beads and the teal title tied the layout all together. The title can be found here
I loved the way the title has the small butterflies entwined in the title, which ties in the butterfly flourish beside the photo.
