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.

Well guys, thanks for joining me this week.  As always thanks for stopping by.  I sure do enjoy your company. Please be sure to check out the links below to see what my other creative team mates have been up to...

Creative Inspiration - Week 27 2015

Hello everyone.

Yes.. I know that my posts on the blog have been a little quiet over the past few weeks. 

Unfortunately life has gotten in the way of my craft time and really just haven't had a chance to scrap at all. Quite sad really as I did miss scrapping.

Anyways... I did manage to get some scrapping done yesterday.. I was suppose to be studying and getting my last gap assignment done but took time out to get a pocket letter done that I owe and then I kinda ended up making three! 

Now... I have been playing with the scraps from a kit set to me by Leanne at Mad About Scrappin. It has this super yummy and cute paper range Tangerine Adventures MME Jubilee.

I promise this week to show you the layouts that have been created to go with this kit which comes with FULL instructions on how to create the layouts!!!

So here's two of the pocket letters that I created with this paper range.

 For both of the pocket letters I have used the paper range as the base for each pocket. Then it was a case of finding pits and pieces to add a bit of pop to each pocket. I have used a mix of bits and pieces from my stash along with some added goodies from several Mad About Scrappin sales. 

I find that the mini paper bags from Mad About Scrappin provide super quick and easy pockets for the design. I am then able to hide little goodies in them. My favourite would be the kraft paper bags with the coloured letters. 

The other thing I have found with pocket letters is that they are a great way to use up the scraps of a kit. The paper is cut to 2.5' x 3.5' in size so finding scraps to fit is easy. Especially when you mix up the pocket colours from a matching range.

Well better get back to study so that I can play catch up on scrapping next week.

Till then.

Happy Scrappin, Michelle x

MIXED MEDIA CARDS MADE WITH SOME LEFTOVERS.

Hi, l am back again to share with you all what l have been creating this last week.  I pulled out my last two kits, and used up some of the leftover papers, and embellishments.  I created two Mixed Media cards, and l used the Jubilee MME Wild Berry Range.  I was so surprised how they turned out and both looked very different with these papers. 

I have a few Birthdays coming up so they were just perfect.  At least l have some cards ready to go when they come up.  Its great having some ready made cards in your stash.  Im usually still making them the day before. lol. 

Just loved how they turned out. Mixed Media is so in at the moment. And they were quick cards to make in an afternoon. 

I used lots of different techniques on both these cards.  Really happy with how they turned out. 

This would have to be one of my favourites. 

I sprayed one of the Wild Berry papers with Dylusions, Stamped a Tim Holtz stamp to the left.

l tore back some of the paper and distressed and added in between this gorgeous little flower clip that came in my kit. 

Added with some flowers, and a wooden heart, and some epoxy dots. 

Then last of all scattered some Gold Sequins, added some of the Bird on a Wire Washi tape, and a XOXO rub on. 

Close up. 

My second card l made a little different. 

Added some strips of the Wild Berry papers on a Kraft Cardstock,  and some Bird on a Wire Washi Tape. 

Then used some Lindy Stamp Gang Sprays, a Flair, a Chipboard word that l painted, and some flowers, feathers and some hand dyed muslin l made. 

Look at those feathers! 

Close up. 

So two Gorgeous cards made on a Sunday afternoon.

Thanks for stopping by this week, to see what l have been creating. 

Enjoy your week, 

Take Care, 

Tracey. x
