Come On Get Crafty

I love the new American Crafts Mayberry collection in the shop, especially the Raspberry Bits tags which are backed with burlap and full of dimension and texture. So adorable!

On this layout, I used two tags along with a standard 4x6 photo to create a simple grid design.

I used the empty space in the tags for embellishments and journaling.

Shop items used: American Crafts Mayberry Collection: 6x6 Paper Pad, Raspberry Bits Tags, Cupcake Wood Shaped Buttons, Lily Bee Sweet Shoppe Collection: Embellishment Bundle, Letter Stickers, Pebbles Lakeside Collection: Postcards paper

You can find all of these supplies and lots of other new goodies in the Come On Get Crafty shop!

Product Showcase | Basic Grey Flocked Rub-Ons

Hi there! Today I am highlighting the fabulous flocked rub-ons from Basic Grey's Hipster line:

I love that these rub-ons add texture & dimension to a layout or a card while not adding bulk, that they are easy to apply (although they won't rub-off so easily that they accidentally transfer where you don't want them to!) and that they are orange (my favorite color). :)

In honor of Father's Day coming up soon (*June 16) I decided to highlight a bunch of these rub-ons in a card for my sweet hubby.

 

I began by cutting the "Dad" sentiment with my Silhouette and backing it with patterned paper from the (*STORE ITEM) Basic Grey 6x6 Hipster pad. I added the cluster of rub-ons around the Silhouette cut, did some machine stitching, and added some vintage typing to finish off the card. Easy peasy and a fun card for a pretty cool dude!

If  you have had a chance to create with these scrap lovelies, please feel free to share your creations in the Come On Get Crafty Inspiration Gallery.

Happy Wednesday!

Hello everyone!  I'm here today to showcase some of my favorite items that are currently in the shop...the Pink Paislee Cottage Farms Collection!

I am in LOVE with this collection!  Especially the Press Ons...they rub on like "butta".  

I layered the Basket Patterned Paper (cut in a butterfly-shaped background using my Silhouette) with some Paper Goods and a few of the Photo Frames.  Then I placed a few of the Press Ons around the edges.  I love how they add a completely different dimension to my pages.

 

Shop Items Used:  Pink Paislee Cottage Farms Collection (Barrel Patterned Paper, Basket Patterned Paper, Paper Goods, Photo Frames, Press Ons)

Be sure to head on over to the shop and check out this fabulous collection!  Have a wonderful day!  

 

Hello everyone! I'm sharing a layout today showcasing the new Crafty Bits Kit in the shop. It is packed with fun products from a variety of manufacturers that you can not only use to embellish your page, but you can create an entire page using mostly items from the kit, like I did here.

I cut pieces of the May Arts twill to different lengths to achieve the look of paper strips and stitched them down on my page.

I embellished the page with the Jillibean Soup corrugated butterfly shapes, Studio Calico wood veneer flowers and circles,and Basic Grey Candy Buttons.

 

I added my journaling to a tag from my stash and adhered one of the Basic Grey Mint Julep Woven Labels as the pull tab.

Shop items used: Jillibean Soup Corrugate Shapes, Studio Calico Sundrifter Wood Veneer Flowers and Circles, Basic Grey Candy Buttons in Aqua/Green, Orange/Pink, and Red/Pink, Basic Grey Mint Julep Woven Labels, May Arts Twill in turquoise, orange, pink and yellow.

Thanks for visiting!

Product Showcase | Basic Grey Hipster Wood Veneers

Happy Wednesday everyone! Excited to be back to share with you PRODUCT SHOWCASE  and give highlight to some favorite products of mine that are available in the Come On Get Crafty Shop; the Basic Grey Hipster line, specifically the wood veneer embellishments.

When I first saw the Basic Grey Hipster line at CHA in January, I knew it was a must have for this momma to boys although it really works well for either gender!

In my layout below, I have utilized several pieces including the "totally" sentiment, the pointing  hand, and the hang loose hand. I love that these wood veneer elements add texture and dimension to my layout without adding a bunch of bulk. (For adherence, I used Glue Dots and Tombo Mono Multi liquid glue, although other adhesives will work too).

SHOP ITEMS USED: BASIC GREY HIPSTER WOOD VENEERS

                                            BASIC GREY HIPSTER 6x6 PAPER PAD

 

I am a huge fan of these veneers! I think they really add a ton of interest to a layout. ;) It's a generous  collection for the price and it's a great value for the added visual "pop." If you haven't already snagged a package of these hip products, just click on the "Shop Items" above and you are on your way! :)

If you already have these fun veneers, be sure to add your creations to the Come On Get Crafty Inspiration Gallery. We love being inspired by others! 

Have a fabulous Wednesday! :)

 

Hi everyone, Ginny here with you today. Today I wanted to showcase the Down by the Shore line from Fancy Pants. I love Summer scrapbook lines and I really love the color combo of this line. 

The page was created all around the Down by the Shore tape stickers. I really liked the way they looked all together and I didn't want to lose any of the patterns or colors by just picking a few of them to use. So I just cut the Fancy Pants tag off the top and sewed the whole thing down on the paper! Super easy! I then used different size circle punches and punched some circles from the Fancy Pants Down by the Shore 6x6 paper pad. I think the 6x6 paper pads are so awesome, I love that they have the patterns scaled down. I finished off with a few label stickers from the same line and a few of the Jillibean Soup Irish Farmhouse label stickers. I had fun working with the Summer photo, Spring is slowly coming our way up here and I am yearning for some warmer temps! I hope you all have a great day!

Today's product showcase focuses on the Jillibean Soup corrugated shapes. 

 

These shapes are so versatile. They are perfect for Project Life layouts, cards, or traditional scrapbook pages. They add dimension without a lot of bulk.

 

Here, I painted the clouds with Claudine Hellmuth Gesso and the sunshine with a Jenni Bowlin Paint Dabber in Lemon Drop. The shapes took the paint smoothly and didn't need more than one coat. I then filled the middle of the sunshine with Yellow Solid Divine Twine  and bordered the clouds with Oyster Divine Twine for some added dimension.

Shop supplies used: Yellow Solid Divine Twine, Oyster Divine Twine and Jillibean Soup Sunshine corrugated shapes

 

How have you used your corrugated shapes? Share your creations with us in our gallery. Happy Wednesday!

Product Showcase

Today we are showcasing the Fancy Pants Down by the Shore photo frames 

The frames all have a 2"x3" opening which make it easy to use wallet sized photos or to crop a 2"x3" area of a larger photo.  I (Nicole) decided to use a few of them on one page to make a collage. 

I used some of the May Arts chevron twill to add some dimensional elements to the frames. I also used some twine to use as pulls for the hidden journaling tags and to accent the border of the page.

Now it's your turn!
Upload your project using the Fancy Pants patterned photo frames (from any of their current lines) to our Flickr gallery by April 10th and we will pick a random winner for a $5 off coupon to our store . 

Enjoy creating!
