Scrappy Canary: Double layout

Mothers Day at Kinder.. Layout share by Michelle

Hey Everyone

Michelle back for a second time today with yet another belated layout share.

This layout is a little different to usual. Im sharing a way that you can incorporate Kids art into your albums, rather than keeping it all out of sight like I do. We have a tub full of it here which I hope to make use of in the future.

I really wanted to make the photos and handmade paper stand out, so Ive used kit contents that compliment and blend well together. I love the end result!

The art made by Leila, was originally used to wrap up a present that she had made at Kinder

The cards made by the children were quite cute, with a drawing and printed verse on the inside. I added the sticker embellishments to match the page :)

Such cheesy grins!!

One of my favourite photos of the day. She had so much fun showing me around the room, and the activities that she enjoys the most

The Pink Paislee glitter word was just perfect to finish this side off

Thanks for stopping by again. I hope this inspires you in some way to use up Kids art rather than keeping it in tubs like I normally do.
Happy Scrapping

12x12 layout

Super simple double up with Michelle

Hello Canary fans!!

Michelle here reporting for duty :)

This month I was so excited to see the main collection "Creative Agenda" used in all kits that I had to get my hands on them all :) I love the bright colours and patterns on the papers. Then late last week when the 2 main kits arrived (Memorandum Scrapbook kit & Note to Self Pocket Life kit) I went a little crazy with the creating!! So far I have squeezed as much out of these 2 kits as I possibly can, making 3 single 12x12 layouts 1 double 12 x12 layout, 1 full Pocket Life spread and 2 6x8 layouts. Ive still got more left to make others!

Today I thought it would be fun to share the double layout I made. Its been a while since I last made one, but this came together so easy and quickly too.

This layout was inspired by the bright circles of the Watercolor Dots paper on the right side. It reminded me of the fun we had at the Geelong Show last month, so I thought it would be perfect to use for those photos.

As It was a multiple photo layout, I wanted to add some dimension to the page, without overdoing it too much. I only wanted to use a couple of pattern papers for each side. I distressed and folded up the edges to 'lift' them off the page a little.
