Bella Blvd ~ Time to Travel 🌎

Hi all, it’s Anna back on the blog today! 

For my next few blog posts I will be working with a new collection from Bella Blvd - Time to Travel! This was perfect for me as we’ve recently returned from a very much long awaited holiday! 

My first layout documents a couple of pictures of a few of us ‘ready for takeoff’.

Starting with a sheet of white bazzill, I cut the b side of ‘love this place’ paper diagonally adhering it to the left side of the layout. I then used my cameo to cut out an aeroplane cutfile using the b side of ‘baggage claim’ paper. 

I then cut a title cutfile by Bella Blvd and backed it with the b side of the ‘photo op’ patterned paper. I fussy cut a few of the tickets from the ‘baggage claim’ paper and mounted two photographs on to the b side of  the ‘road trip’ paper.

I fussy cut the passport and little aeroplane from the ‘daily details’ paper and tucked them in either side of my photos. I completed my layout by adding some of the puffy stickers from the collection. 

Thanks so much for looking! See you soon with another layout using this collection.

Let's Go Anywhere with Photoplay Collections

Good Morning! ScrappyAdam back with you today and I am continuing my mix and match of Photoplay - and loving it - they all match so wonderfully!

Those eagle eyed amongst you will see that I have brought in a few stickers from another collection on this layout because they worked so well and I used a few from Echo Park's Scenic Route Sticker Book!

I started with a sheet from Photoplay's America The Beautiful - Celebrate as my background as I loved the dark blue star background. 

I cut a large circle from Photoplay's 'Little Boys Have Big Adventures - You're a Star' and used this as a base for my background, following a Pagemaps sketch I then added a strip of the same paper but the B-Side, matted my photos on a paper from Birds of Feather and a cut apart card from Time to Travel. 

Then the fun bit - embellishments!

I used flair from Dotty About Flair and lots of bits from all the various Photoplay collections to add clusters roughly in each corner of my photos - a sticker from Echo Park did sneak in again!

That's it for this one - fairly simple but I love the result!

I will be back soon but in the meantime take care and happy scrapping!

Echo Park - Let's Go Anywhere - Spotting Jodrell Bank!

Welcome back to the Papermaze blog! 

ScrappyAdam here with you for an evening edition blog post for a change! This month, I am using the brilliant Let's Go Anywhere from Echo Park which has just been added to the shop. It's a fantastic collection full of black and white with red and woodgrain - I am loving the monochrome feel of it. 

'Spotting Jodrell Bank'

For this layout, I wanted to use the Forest Stencil and also used an arrow stencil from Safe Travels so I used some black ink and the two stencils to create two border strips across the page. I then used four strips of patterned paper, torn into strips from the collection and added in a washi tape for good measure and another pop of red!

I then added two strips from top to bottom, a strip of the B-Side of Cameras and a strip of the B-Side of See the World on top. 

I used the 6x6" pad to back four 3x4" photos and placed these two-together in the middle of the page and decided to use stickers and chipboard to add some detail below the bottom photograph. 

I have used Alpha's from the sticker book along with some from my stash to create the title to the top left of the page, nestled into the stencilling and overlapping the photo. 

I decided to utilise some 'empty' space on the photos by adding sticker, brads, chipboard and enamel dots. I have also added in two flair from Dotty About Flair. 

This collection is absolutely brilliant and I am loving creating with it. It's a big change for me to use limited colour but the black and white with pops of red and woodgrain make a refreshing change!

I will be back later in June with another Let's Go Anywhere project and in the meantime, have a look at all the other fantastic layouts! Do take a look at the collection, it's all in stock currently but I can't imagine it will be for very long - such a different collection!

Stay safe, take care and happy scrapping!
