Mini Tag, Brag Book

Hey all, well it is with much sadness that I share with you today my final project from the Marion Smith paper pad - Junque Gypsy.  I have loved creating with this paper collection so much that I couldn't help myself I just had to use up all the scraps.  So here is my little mini Tag Brag book.

I have used some canvas type tags from my Mad About Scrappin kit


and then all these scraps,


 to put together this cute, but shabby mini album....

Altered Notebook


Hi all and welcome to my Monday Creative inspiration share for Mad About Scrappin.  Today I have taken my leftovers and a few scraps to create this shabby chic inspired notebook cover.  I have used the gorgeous papers Junque Gypsy from Marion Smith.  I have really loved using these papers and I am hoping I can squeeze one more project out of them.

I have used what was left of the embellishments I received in the kit and only a few things from my stash... So without any further ado I will let the pictures do the talking....

Junque Gypsy Easel Cards

Well readers it is sad to say that I have just about exhausted my one little 6x6 Junque Gypsy paper pad from Marion Smith and I have to say I am converted....I am now a Marion Smith girl all the way :D.  These papers are just divine and such good quality cardstock, I recommend them whole heartedly.

Today I have a couple of easel cards to share with all as my creative inspiration project for Mad About Scrappin and without any further ado here they are.




Unfortunately guys there's not much to really tell.  I have used 2 sheets of Kraft card stock to create the bases for these cards and I have fussy cut some of the tags and images from the papers.  I have even used up the extra pieces of Kraft card stock I had left over to re-inforce the bases.  I like to do this with easel cards, I feel it just makes them that little bit more stable and sturdy.

Using up some leftovers

Well readers it is that time of the week again....time for my Mad About Scrappin Monday project share.   This week I have dug out some of the scraps and off cuts from my previous projects to create this cute little card and gift bag...


The little gift bag is something that Leanne shared a Pinterest link with me https://www.pinterest.com/pin/273804852317423002/ to create these cute little bags. 

Mini Bag using 8.5x11 paper


 Well I searched the internet till I found the following tutorial over at Silvey's Craftroom.  Please be sure to follow the link to see the full tutorial on how to create this super quick gift bag.  How cute would these look for kids birthdays? Filled with lollies or little treats??? 


Here is mine all covered with some offcuts from the paper pad, some lace,  seambinding and paper flower.






My card was created using a Kraft card base that was included in my kit and one of the cut outs from the paper pad.  I have used some Tim Holtz "Victorian Velvet" distress ink and a water brush to softly colour in the birds chests.  




I have used my crimper on the kraft strip and topped it with a small piece of hessian.  I pulled some threads from the hessian and added them under the flower.


Well readers this is all I have for you today.  I hope I have inspired you to create and please go check out the Mad About Scrappin store to see all the newest arrivals for this month.  Please be sure to check out the links below to see what my other creative team mates have been up to...

Hi all, I am back to share with you my Monday Mad About Scrappin Project share.  I am still working with this months kit, which included some fabulous canvas embellishments and the lovely Junque Gypsy papers from Marion Smith.

I have three cards to share with you all today.  Two of the card bases are 6x6" from Creativ, and for my Aussie readers these are available in some Kmart stores.  I loved using these bases as there was more room to scrap and they showcased some of the papers beautifully.  Some of these patterned paper are just too hard to cut up...My first card is one of them.


I have used the whole "Nota Bene" paper to create this card.


I have used a paper rose and metal butterfly from my stash, paper doily, wooden icon, wooden word from my kit and I fussy cut one of the tags.


 I have also added a gypsy image from the papers to the inside of the wooden frame.

***********

My next large card uses the Dolce Vita page and some cuts from the reverse of this page.  I have again teamed it up with some of the pretty pink flowers from my kit and another of the paper doily's.

Last, but buy no means least, I have used one of the white card bases from kit and one of the heart shaped canvas tags.





I have mat the base with "Faux Pas" and embellished with more of the soft baby pink paper flowers, a snippet off a paper doily and one of the mulberry paper butterflies.



 I have added a small wooden heart icon that I have added some pink micro beads to.
