Thursday Inspiration

Good morning everyone!

I wanted to share some gorgeous projects today that I am sure will inspire you to get out your supplies and scrap something awesome!

First up is Renea with a gorgeous journal and ATC

This piece is filled with unique spots to house journaling, small photos and mementos. There is even a removable  glass vile of  glitter glass.

She started with a handcrafted pocket journal base, and then cut and distressed a layer of the kit paper. She fussy cut "If The Crown Fits" piece, and then over layered with some lace,  then fussy cut out the Marie Antoinette and  Lois XVI of France image and layered it on top of the lace with foam tape. 

She created a floral layer with a blush chiffon flower, one of the peach Petaloo flowers from this month's Floral Add On, and a past kit rose.  

She painted a couple of the little Blue Fern Crown Pieces  with crackle texture paste and tucked them in. 

She fussy cut a "Let Them Eat Cake piece from the paper and added a brass spoon trinket onto it. The Champagne Dreams Butterflies are some of her handcrafted butterflies.

She took a corked glass vile and filled it with some glitter glass and used the peach twine from the kit to tie on one of the G45 Chipboard pieces from the Elements Add On. 

 

She created a pocket from the G45 Pocket & Tags in the kit and added the "Keep Calm" piece on with foam tape. The whole piece velcros onto the base so that it can be removed.

There is a "Let Them Eat Cake" piece tucked inside the pocket. 

Here is the system with the pieces untucked. There are:

2 oversized, double sided tags with lace, hand dyed seam binding bows and pearl and gold buttons.

2 smaller pieces that open up for journling and small photos.

A large tag with a hand dyed seam binding bow topped with a Timeless Button

 2 Julie Nutting Armoire Pieces(from the kit) that she decorated with Prima resin pieces and pearls

She then cut the doors so that they open up with some of the Graphic 45 Quote Paper Pieces mounted into them. The Armoires tie closed with some of the kit twine. 

 This is the back view of the Armoires.

And this is the back view of the entire pieces that has been finished out for a complete, designer look. 

Up next is a little 2 1/2 x 3 1/2 ATC that she put together in the same theme as the Pocket Journal.

She created a 2 1/2 x 3 1/2 ATC from chipboard and then layered both sides with the kit paper that was left over from the background paper on the pocket journal. She fussy cut the small images from some of the kit paper. 

She added one of those sweet peach flowers from the Floral Add On along with a past kit mini rose and some stash leaves. 

She used some leftover seam binding from the pocket journal to create a bow, and topped it with a little tea cup, and then cut out the "Let Them Eat Cake" Quote from the same paper and popped it on with some foam tape.

And finally I am going to share a beautiful layout from Tracey G. using the September Scraps Of Darkness kit 'Tanya's Industrial Odyssey'

She created many layers, with both the papers and the elements beautifully.
