Creative Fun | Simple Stories | Crafty Things

Hey everyone, here is a new layout for Simple Stories using the fabulous Crafty Things collection. Being a scrapbooker, this collection has my heart! I recently went on a crafty trip to Luxembourg to visit Lisa Fonseca and Shara Crane and have scrapped all my Lux photos with Crafty Things. This double layout has 15 photos on it (!) and is of a day we spent sight seeing – we didn’t do any crafting that day, but Crafty Things works so well because I’m with my crafty friends!

I don’t often make double layout but always enjoy the different format when I do. I wanted to include 15 photos on this layout so a double was the only way to go! I printed 14 photos in the small size and arranged them in a classic grid design. I wanted to mount them onto patterned paper but didn’t have enough of one paper to back them all, so opted for two different patterns and created long strips 24” long (two 12” pieces) to stretch across the layout. I then added my photos to these.

I also printed a feature photo that was of the group of us, was landscape orientation and also bigger. I mounted this onto another patterned paper and added this to the layout. I layered it with a couple of tags from the Tag Elements paper which I tied through with ribbons. I also added tags behind some of the other photos too.

For my title I used the words ‘Creative Fun’ from the Foam Stickers. I also added other words to the layout too, also from the Foam Stickers: Awesome and Pretty Cool.

I added lots of embellishments. I used a big paintbrush from the Big Bits. I added smaller bits from the Bits & Pieces and I also added Floral Bits. I also added a few of the gorgeous Rub-Ons, some Cardstock Stickers and some Decorative Brads.

I finished off with a few splatters of black paint – I love how this one turned out!

Thanks so much for joining me today and happy scrapping
