49 and Market Christmas Folio

 Hello Lovelies. I am getting started on my 2020 Christmas memory book.The new 49 and Market Vintage Artistry Noel was perfect for my Christmas Folio. The collection is a mini album lovers dream. Between the laser cuts in the collection, and the Ephemera Stack, there is so much to adorn your pages. I decided to create the poinsettias on the cover by die cutting the flowers from the Painted Season paper. I layered them, then topped each of them with the laser cut poinsettia flowers. I topped them with Prills, then added some glitter to make them shimmer. I tucked in the laser cut leaf clusters and pinecones, tucked in the Santa laser cut, and added the laser cut Merry Christmas for my cover title. The lace on the cover towards the spine is also from the laser cut sheet. On the opposite side of the cover I added the Noel Rub-Ons. Just a few elements and the cover is complete. The design of this album was created by Ginger Ropp of My Sisters Scrapper. I made minor adjustments to the album. Click HERE for the tutorial.

My folio is a fold out, and on 1 side, I have a waterfall feature that can hold 7 photos in the back of each flap. On the cover of each flap, I have adorned each one with laser cut elements, and on the inside of the cover, I created a pocket that can hold cards and tags. Underneath the waterfall side, I created another pocket that holds another tag that can be used for photos or jounaling. Don't ever discount the 12 x 12 piece of paper in the collection that has the bonus design on the back. Some use the bonus side, and in this folio, I used the cover that advertises the collection. The small squares that show each paper design in the package, were perfect when cut out and added to each waterfall flap!  And don't get rid of those strips you cut off of the 12x12 peice of paper, I used them on my spine as well as strips on the flaps of my waterfall. The designs on the strips are beautiful.

The tags that are tucked into the pocket, were die cut, then adorned with laser cuts and the fabulous Noel Run-Ons  from the collection. The Vintage Artistry Noel rub-ons go on so smooth, you would think they were part of the design in the paper. The edges are invisible. I absolutely love them! Each tag can hold journaling and photos on the back. I only created 4, but the pocket can hold many more.

Here are the individual waterfall flaps. I loved using the laser cuts to adorn the covers.

Underneath the waterfall is a pocket with a tag.

Thank you for joining me today. I hope that you are inspired to start your holiday projects a little early so that they are ready for gift giving, or to keep for your holiday memories.

"Should Have been a Mermaid" featuring Vintage Artistry Shore Collection

Hello Lovelies. Today I bring you a layout I created using the brand new gorgeous Vintage Artistry Shore Collection. The luscious colors of the sea abound in the beautiful designs of the papers.  One of the newest products for 49 and market are the rub-ons. Oh Em Geeeee...You are going to love them!! They rub on effortlessly and brilliantly! To prepare the layout for embellishing, I used the Fishnet Stencil from Dusty Attic on the background. I used some colored sprays and embossing powder to enhance the colors of the paper.

The beauty of the Shore Collection are the sheets of laser cuts. For my clusters, I have layered the laser cuts, flowers, and I die cut leaves using the papers in the 6x6 Collection. I printed the title from a download I had and cut it apart, inked the edges, and placed my title on the page. 

I layered the stitched frames with the smaller frames I fussy cut from the 6x6 collection papers, though there are larger frames that are laser cut in the 12x12 collection pack. I think the wishing bubbles that are scattered around the layout remind me of bubbles underwater. I added some sequins for additional sparkle, and art stones for texture. 

I absolutely love the stitched frames. And the frames from the Sky collection blend in perfectly with the Shore collection.  For those that do not own a sewing machine, but love the look of the stitching on frames, these are perfection!! Ready to frame your memories. 

The Shore Ephemera Stacks have an abundance of awesome pieces for layering. I think the stacks have so many useful uses, and I can't wait to use them in my next Junk Journal. They are a Junk Journalers dream!! I tucked in some die cut leaves and topped it off with a flower from the mini series. Under it all I used Washi  Strips as well. 

Thank you for joining me today. I hope you were inspired to create your own projects using the beautiful Vintage Artistry Shore Collection.

49 and Market Trio of Shutter Cards

Hello Lovelies!! Today I bring to you a Trio of Shutter Cards. I know we have a lot of 49 and Market card fans, so I decided to do something special.  If you aren't sure what a shutter card is, just go to You Tube and check out the many tutorials to do them. I know I have a stash of bits and pieces of laser cuts and paper. These pieces are perfect for turning into cards because they are the perfect size. I created 3 different cards. For 2 of them I used a coordinating card stock for the base, and for one I used Kraft cardstock for a natural look. Each card has a belly band that I created for the closure. Each belly band was decorated with flowers, laser cuts and lace.

Remove the belly band to reveal the surprise message when you open the card. Each card has different  message. But besides words, you could also place small photos behind the shutter, or just pretty pictures. I used the word "Believe" stamp from the Vintage Remnants Label Stamps for this card.  You could also adhere the printed paper to the inside of the card, but I left this card

Here is a closeup of one of the cards. For the belly band, I saved the scalloped circle from the cutout on this inside of the card. I wrapped the belly band with a piece of the Lacy Trim, then adhered the circle to the middle. I placed the butterflies, and flowers in the center and tucked in the leaves and laser cut berries in layers.

Thank you for visiting today. I hope you are inspired to create your own shutter cards! They were a lot of fun to create! xo

49 and Market "Summer Breeze" 12x12 layout

Hello Lovelies. I hope that your creative souls have kept you all busy during these difficult times. Today, I bring to you a 12x12 layout created from the Vintage Artistry Sage Collection Pack. I did add 1 page from the original Vintage Artistry. I loved the design that looked like a photo strip. I took one of the elements from the laser cut sheets and cut them in thin strips. I machine sewed on them  in straight lines and zigzag and then adhered the strips to the edges of the layout.

The beauty of the Sage Collection pack are the laser cut sheets included in the pack. All of the layering was done using the laser cuts. I topped them with the gorgeous flowers and leaves and tucked in the lovely butterflies. I sprinkles some art stones around the layering to give it a garden feeling. I dotted the clusters with the smaller Wishing Bubbles. I repeated the process for the lower cluster.

I fussy cut the photo strip from the paper, adhered it to the background paper, raising it with some corrugated cardboard. This became the focus and foundation for the entire layout. Once it was laid out, I began embellishing the entire layout. It came together so easily using the Collection Pack. The wreath was created by adding the leaves and vine from the Sugar Petals pack and the Pixie flowers. I die cut a floral wreath from kraft paper and added it for fullness.

Here is a closeup of the wreath I created by using the 4 stems from the flower pack and twirling them around the paper wreath, Then I cut apart one of the medium leaves and tucked each leaf  in the wreath. I scattered some Pixie Petals on the wreath. Under the wreath I added a Kraft cardstock Spellbinders die cut wreath. I cut 2 of them and layered them for added fullness.

To add dimension to the layout, I raised the photo cluster and both top and bottom clusters, using pop dots and pieces of corrugated cardboard underneath. 

The laser cuts make it so easy to layer your clusters. Add a few flowers here and there, and your cluster is complete. Adhere the butterflies by the body only, then gently lift the wings.

After my cluster was complete, I added some Art Stones and the smaller Wishing Bubbles around it for more texture.

Thank you for joining me and letting me share my layout. I hope it brings you inspiration to create. Be sure to follow the 49 and Market blog for more beautiful inspiration.

Welcome to the Heartfelt Creations Alumni Blog Hop for June!! A randomly chosen comment from a mystery blog will receive a $25 gift certificate to shop at Heartfelt Creations. To claim your prize please email Heartfelt Creations at socialmedia@heartfeltcreations.us

Today I have created for you a 12x12 layout using the UNder The Sea Paper collections and the featured Flowers are from the Small Wild Rose collection. I absolutely adore the Wild Rose! There are so many possibilities for shaping these flowers, but the Shaping Molds makes it so easy! I used 2 papers from the Under The Sea Paper collections and fussy cut the title banner out of one of the papers. I layered the papers on corrugated cardboard, and distressed the edges to have some of the cardboard show. It reminded me of drift wood you would find at the beach.

Here is closeup of the flowers. I added some gorgeous sparkle using Rajni Chawla's Crystal Clear to the flowers and leaves. And the yellow Stamen were enhanced using some yellow Flower Soft I had in my stash. I dipped the tips of the stamen in gue, then the flower soft.

Sometimes all you need is 1 Leafy Accents vine with a couple of flowers for a fill in. I love how the Shaping Molds add such beautiful dimension to the vine. Just a spritz of water to the die cut, place it in the shaping mold and I run it through my Big Shot. Easy as that for dimensional leaves.

Tucking the different Leafy Accent designs under the flowers created a beautiful floral cluster. I love how they cascade over and down the corner of the photo. I few strategically placed yellow butterflis finishes the layout.

49 and Market Beach themed Mini Album

Hello Lovelies!  I have created a mini album using the beautiful 6x8 Seaside Shipwreck Collection pack. The Collection comes complete with papers and fabulous laser cuts that I used throughout the album. The smaller laser cuts were the perfect size for my 4x6 mini album. The cover has a shaker dome that I filled with some of the tiny laser cuts, beads and silver microbeads. There is a crab, a starfish and a seashell under the dome! I used an awesome camera die set to create my mini. The die is created by Crealies. It was the perfect size, and I was able to create a lot of pages with the 6x8 papers. The beautiful flowers are the Sugar Posies in Tutti Frutti. I used elements from the Underwater Layered Embellishment Set to tuck in spots on the rest of the cover.

Here is a closeup of the shaker dome I used on the cover. You can see the many pages which also have flipouts, and waterfall pages. There is a lot of room for small photos and journaling inside the mini. I had a lot of fun adorning many of the pages. I chose a coordinating base cardstock for each page, then topped them with the papers from collection pack.

I created the spine using the burlap and the Lacy Trim, and created a tassel by tying the 5 ply jute around the spine, tying a barrel knot on top, and taking apart the braided sections below the knot. I then strung beads and charms from each individual string. The back of the mini was adorned using elements from the Underwater Layered Embellishment Set. I absolutely adore the beachy theme of this mini.

I love to make the dangles for the books and mini albums I create. I strung lots of Sea themed beads through the jute, and tied a barrel knot on the top.

Another view of the beaded dangle.

On the inside I have flip pages. some flip open once, and other flip open 3 times. I embellished some of the pages with the smaller laser cuts in the 6x6 paper pack. The size is perfect for this smaller album.

Even though there were a lot of pretty designs on the papers, I still embellished them with the little laser cuts in the 6x6 paper pack. I just loved them all! Creating the little scenes was fun!

Here is another page that flips out. I simply adore the art on these pages. The colors are so beautiful!!

This one opens 3 times. There is plenty of room for photos as well as journaling.

This is another closeup of the Tim Holtz dome I used to hold the tiny laser cuts from the 6x6 paper packs. I added a crab, a starfish and a shell, then poured in some beads and microbeads.

Thank you for joining me today. I hope you were inspired to create a mini album of your own. The smaller paper packs are perfect to create these types of projects.

"My little Petunia" 49 and Market Vintage Artistry in Lilac...

 Hello Beautiful People!!! Today I bring you a layout created with the gorgeous Vintage Artistry in Lilac from 49 and Market. I can't tell you how gorgeous each and every page, and all of the embellies are. I had so much creative fun just layering all of the elements, then tucking in the flowers, dragonfly  and butterflies.
This mini collection is a must have. The laser Cut Sheets in the Mini collection are awesome! So many embellishments to choose from.

I added a cluster to the side of the layout. I took one of the paper designs from the Ephemera pack and die cut a tag, and put some jute cord through the eyelet. Even bits and pieces were used to tuck in the layers. No piece of paper is ever wasted!

I machine sewed the photo to a piece of paper from the Ephemera stack. I used some of the beautiful  Washi tape to tape it down to the layers underneath. I simply adore the purple flowers from the laser cuts. It is almost the star of the layout. I just love all of the purple and lilac. It is my favorite color.

I machine stitched around the whole layout, and then did some machine stitching on the different paper layers. If you look closely at the eyelet lace paper laser cut, I tucked the throw away edge of the 12x12 paper behind it. I love that 49 and Market uses this piece of paper. Even if I don't use it right away, I save them all! They make a great filler!.

Oh my, the line of Sugar Posies are the sweetest flowers! Just look at the color I used. Huckleberry. They are the perfect shade of purples  lilac.The larger flowers are  Wildflowers in Punch. The pink offset the purple in the layout.

Thank you for joining me today. I hope  that you were inspired to create your own magic.
