quick. scrap those easter layouts while you're still able to remember the little transient details that slip away so easily. or at least jot them down somewhere so that you can use them when you do have time to scrap, and bookmark this page for inspiration!
Suz has used just Michael Miller fabric papers for this page of her daughter tackling an easter egg almost bigger than her head! the spots and brights of the fabrics pick up the foils of the easter eggs to create a deliciously bright page. She has embellished with Michael Miller flowers, SEI iron ons, and has created her journalling with her favourite Heidi Swapp rubons in a spiral to suggest the shape of the egg and create interest. (Note how she reverses from white to pink rubons where the journalling moves from the background fabric to the photograph.)
The new Cosmo Cricket range of Honey Pie patterned papers, lettering and diecuts are just perfect to scrap those Easter layouts as Mel has demonstrated here. By adding a splash of hand embroidered cross-stitches Mel has finished the page off nicely and .... just how cute are those chickens!!?
You still can't beat Becky Higgins sketches to do quick and balanced double page layouts using lots of photos. Suz 'whipped' this one up this morning using a combination of Scenic Route Lynden papers and chipboard, BasicGrey for the background cardstock and the ever-present touch of Hambly for good measure.
For this layout Mel has combined Cosmo Cricket Honey Pie papers with Scenic Route chipboard and a little bit of machine stitching. The journalling tells a story of how her children blow and dye eggs each year for Easter gifts, but this year they decided to keep the eggs for themselves to display on the kitchen table.
(a little classic, also from the Scenic Route Lynden Easter chipboard!)
