May Pink Colour Challenge - With Imaginarium Designs!

The May Colour of the month at Imaginarium Designs chipboard is "PINK"!!! We would love for you to join in the challenge and create a project that is inspired by the colour Pink then send a photo to Jane at sales@imaginariumdesigns.net.au (before 23rd May) and you will be in the running to win a fabulous chipboard prize pack!! 

I've created a scrapbook page for this challenge using the amazing 7 Dots Paint Chips paper collection along with lots of gorgeous Imaginarium Designs chipboard
I started my page with a piece of the sheet of 7 Dots "Glaze" paper (I love the bright PINK and yellow background!). I had a photo from our recent holiday that was of a sunset so I placed it on the page so it aligned with the "sun" on the paper. I also aligned the horizon in the photo with the horizon on the paper and accentuated it with some black thread. 
I kept embellishments to a minimum with chipboard clustered on, around and under my photo. I also added 2 tags under my photo. One was cut from a piece of 7 Dots Paint Chips "Underpaper" and the other is a manilla tag where I hid my journalling. I've left all of the chipboard raw with just a touch of inking in black around the edges. 


Lastly I added paint splats in PINK and black using Prima Watercolor Confections "Originals" - these colours are so vibrant!

You Are My World - With Scrapping Clearly!

Hi Lovelies!!

Today I have a scrapbook page to share with you made using the Cocoa Vanilla Studio Bohemian Dreams Collection available in the Scrapping Clearly Store.
I started with a sheet of white cardstock and applied some DWM paints in Magenta, Sky and Night across the page with a palate knife
While the background was drying I heat embossed some chipboard I had in my stash with "Just Blue" Colour Blast Embossing powder and a Versamark ink pad - doesnt the embossing look divine!!
Next I put my page together. I started by matting my photo with some offcuts from paper from the CVS Bohemian Dreams 6x6 paper pad. I also added paper strips to the left and right of my photo. I added the embossed chipboard and flower die cuts from the CVS Bohemain Dreams die cut pack to the top right and bottom left corners of my photo   
Next I added some glossy accents in places and then sprinked on some mixed beads I had in my stash. when this is dry (which only took 5-10 minutes) I tapped any excess beads off. 
 

I then added some word stickers from the CVS Bohemian Dreams Accessory sticker sheet. Lastly I watered down some of the DWM Night paint to splattering consistency and splattered across my page. I like using the dark navy colour instead of black here :)

Scrapbooking and Cards - With Imaginarium Designs!

Hi Lovelies!!

Today I have a Scrapbook page and 2 cards to share made using the gorgeous Cocoa Vanilla Studio Bohemian Dreams collection along with lots of gorgeous Imaginarium Designs chipboard. This was also a class I recently taught at Seriously Scrapbooking in Adelaide.

First up is a scrapbook page. I've used a photo of Jessica with a delicious pineapple drink in Hawaii!
I created the background for this page using Distress Oxide ink pads (peacock feathers, picked raspberry and faded jeans) and a "painting with plastic" technique. Next I added strips of patterned paper down the edges and matted underneath my photo. I then stamped a few wreaths from the CVS Bohemian Dreams stamp set in places on my background. I stamped some hearts and a bird onto white cardstock using the distress oxide ink pads and fussy cut to use on my page. All of the chipboard was coloured using the Faded Jeans inkpad - the oxides give such good coverage on chipboard!

I added a selection of CVS floral die cuts around my page - how gorgeous are they! 
More die cuts, stamped hearts and a chipboard heart were added in the bottom left corner, along with a selection of chipboard words. 
More chipboard and a diecut. I love the watercolour look of the Bohemian Dream collection.

Next I created 2 cards. The first card uses the same background technique and Distress Oxide inkpads as for the scrapbook page.This was then matted on some paper from the CVS 6x6 paper pad then matted on a 6" x 6" card blank

Then I added a selection of CVS die cuts, and Imaginarium Designs chipboard! 
The next card uses more paper from the CVS 6x6 paper pad matted on a 6" x 6" card blank. Then I added a selection of CVS die cuts, and a gorgeous Imaginarium Designs chipboard flourish!
