Things that you love, love, love | D-lish Scraps

Hello Hello! It's Michelle here today with a closer look at the layout I created and shared for our recent Cyber crop. Cyber crops are held mid month, every month, within our Facebook group The Scrap Suite and are a great source of challenging inspiration. This month I've set a challenge to Scraplift me! Whether it be part or all of my layout, I can't wait to see what you all create

To find inspiration for this challenge, I looked back on some past layouts I've created and ended up scrap lifting myself! HA The layout chosen was actually from an idea that was shared in a previous Cyber crop. Lets take a closer look...

The main focus of this layout was to recreate and document a new list of things that Leila loves. From her obsession with all things Super Mario to eating all day every day, its listed here to look back on for years to come.

The background started with multiple square pieces of pattern paper, a couple of circular creative cuts from the D-lish Store and a tonne of staples lol I then backed the list and photo with complimenting papers and adhered them to the middle of the layout with some foam tape.

Both layouts have turned out very similar, with a few slight differences. Heres a look back at the layout that I've scrap lifted. You can find the original post HERE

This precious girl sure does love to chill out with her "friends", drinking hot chocolate and listening to music on the iPad.

Once I had the main focal points of the layout adhered to the page I worked on the clusters. I grouped together items from the D-lish store along with some fussy cut flowers for the first cluster, and added a sprinkling of gold color shine to finish it off.

Items shown in this cluster are a Printed tag, Creative cuts, paper flowers, Journal It's, Ombre wordfetti, D-lish Flair, Faceted & Glitter enamel dots

Over on the top right you can see I've tucked in a lace doily for a little extra detail, then embellished the edges with another flair button, paper flowers, creative cut, some more enamel dots and a fussy cut flower.

Lastly in this massive cluster I've added more Journal It's, a flair button, ombre wordfetti (seems to be a favourite of mine) more paper flowers, enamel dots, creative cuts, a fussy cut flower and a wordfetti piece that is stuck to the bottom of the photo.

Well I hope you've enjoyed seeing some close ups of this layout. It was quite fun to recreate an older style layout. I hope its inspired you to play along with my Scraplift me challenge too!

To see all the other challenges set by the other DT members, head over to The Scrap Suite HERE .

Until next time, Happy Scrapping!

Favourite Things | D-lish Scraps

Hello Hello! I'm back today with my second layout share for D-lish Scraps this month. You may have seen this already if you're a member of the Scrap Suite on Facebook, as it was shared last night as part of the newest Cyber Crop challenge for all our D-lish Scraps friends. 

My challenge for you all is to create a project using all of the items listed below

An idea for this layout came about after browsing through older projects I've created, I find it helps when I'm lacking inspiration. There were a few I had created for D-lish throughout my time here on the team that I wanted to replicate in some way you can find them HERE, HERE and HERE. They're a mixture of grids, list making, clusters and some form of diagonal theme are definitely a few of my favourite ways to document this child of mine.

Heres a closer look at how it all came together including loads of D-lish goodness

I've used a full 12x12 piece of pattern paper by Cocoa Vanilla Studio for my background, something I very rarely do, then arranged the photos in a rough grid form around the middle of the page. I tucked in some older square Journal it cards under neath 2 of the photos using colours that complimented them.

Over on the top right photo I've created one of the 2 clusters featuring a colour journal it, flair button, 2 types of flowers, faceted enamel dots and a flower creative cut. I also added a piece of ombre wordfetti into the layers of journal its under the photo

Down on the bottom left I've replicated the same elements as the other cluster but swapped the circle journal it for a Jumbo Note ticket and added a lace doily in the 5 inch size. The "HELLO MY NAME IS" journal it tucked into the layers can be found in the Monochrome journal packs. I've also tucked in a piece of a Pastel 'Sweet talker' to balance out the colours 

Lastly I added a title using some of the fun Puffy alphabet stickers, some typed words and a date stamp. Around the page I've added my 'journalling' which is a random selection of all Leila's most favourite things.

Since documenting Leila's list of favourites earlier this year, things have changed just a little. She's gone from loving and obsessing over PJ Masks and Beanie Boos to loving everything Super Mario Bros. And I mean OBSESSED! Nearly every second thing, apart from food, she talks about is something to do with Mario or Luigi. Theres only 2 toys in her 'plush' collection and they seem to follow her everywhere. Anywhere from in the car to school to snuggling up in bed and out in the shed with Dad.

Well thats all from me today, thanks so much for stopping by!

Be sure to check out the Scrap Suite to see the other challenges set by Nicolee, Malinda & Amy, and share with us any creations you make with D-lish goodies.

Until next time, Happy Scrapping!

Cards & Tags | D-lish Scraps

Hi Everyone, I'm back here today with a new creative share for D-lish Scraps. For this post I've created some cards and gift tags based on a current challenge from our October Cyber crop. The challenge I chose was set by D-lish owner Amanda, to create a project featuring a warm or cool colour palette. I ended up making something for each side of the colour wheel, lets take a look shall we?

 

The first two items I made were some cards. I don't have anyone in mind for these cards just yet, but I enjoyed the process of selecting pretty things to group together to create something to share. 

Here's a reminder of the challenge and the colour wheel..

And now a closer look at each individual card..

For card number 1 I chose to create something using the cooler half of the colour wheel. I've grouped together a selection of Little Birdie flowers, a beautiful Swan rose, pastel petal (currently not in store) some creative cut pieces, silver punchinella, a canvas pick n place bow, 4 inch lace doily, journal it ticket & a cardfetti piece.

For the second card I've used similar items to the first card, but with colours from the warmer side of the colour wheel. Here I've used the yellow punchinella, a 4 inch lace doily, more creative cuts, a sequin butterfly, a few Little Birdie flowers, cardfetti piece, some pastel petals (my most favourite floral item from the D-lish store) and another large Swan rose.

Next I made a some quick tags to wrap around mini gift bags. I thought these would be perfect when giving someone a gift card or even a small note of thanks.  To create these tags I've used some printed tags from the Pastel Doilies set. These are so pretty on their own, but even sweeter with a few added bits to finish them off. 

The tag on the left has a piece from the cardfetti set that reads "Best Wishes" and is attached to the tag with some punchinella, a tassel, wooden button and pastel petal. The tag on the right also has a cardfetti piece, wooden button, pastel petal and a couple of mini Little Birdie flowers.

Lastly for these two cards I've embellished using the same items as the other 2 tags - tassel and punchinella on one, Little Birdie micro flowers on the other, wooden buttons and cardfetti pieces on both. These two tags would have to be my favourite out of the 4. Such sweet colours.

Well thats all from me today, I hope this has inspired you in some way.

Thanks so much for stopping by!

Until next time, Happy Scrapping xx

Hey Mum, HELLO! | D-lish Scraps

Hello Scrappy friends! A quick layout share today of a creation I made and shared recently for the D-lish Scraps Cyber Crop challenge. Each month a few select members of the Design team share a challenge to inspire you, and then you have roughly 4 weeks to create and share your masterpiece. 

Here's the layout I shared this month, which a sketch was created from as the challenge.

Here's a better look at how the sketch turned out, including a link to the group to share your creations

I kept it pretty simple with loads of white space. Something not all of my layouts usually have as they're generally filled with large cut files, big titles and clusters of embellishments. 

Here's a closer look at the bits n bobs I added to make it a little prettier..

I've used papers from the Endless Summer collection from Cocoa Vanilla Studio to layer behind the photo, and across the page. Then I've tucked in a piece of a Hello my name is Journal it (only the spotted strip without the text) a piece from the Pink ombre wordfetti sheet, a rose Creative cut, a pretty lace doily, my favourite forget me not flowers, glitter enamel dots and a Little Birdie flower. 

This photo cracks me up every time I look at it! You're all well aware that we love Snapchat here, and this is just one of many hilarious photos we have added to our collection!

I made a mixed title text using some of the white puffy alphabet stickers and the hello creative cut piece from the script words set. Journaling added underneath using my typewriter.

Over on the right hand side I've used more of the pattern paper from the other side of the layout and tucked a printed tag in underneath. Layered above these is a Journal It circle, flair button, butterfly creative cut and the same flowers and enamels as the other cluster. 

Lastly I did the usual splatter of gold color shine and called it done :) 

Thanks so much for stopping by!

Until next time, Happy Scrapping

I've used tonnes of sweet embellishments from the D-lish Store along with my most favourite collection from Cocoa Vanilla Studio - Make a Wish. I've said it before, and I will keep saying it... It's the perfect collection for documenting any occasion. I love the sweet colours and they work so well with all my favourite embellishments from the D-lish Store!

Here's a look at some close ups..

Thats all from me today, I hope this layout has inspired you in some way.

LOVE | D-lish Scraps

Hi everyone! I thought I would do a quick layout share on this cold and wet Sunday afternoon. I hope its warmer where you are today!

I've made this layout as part of a Challenge I set this month in the D-lish Scraps Scrap Suite on Facebook. The group is open to all crafters who LOVE D-lish Scraps. If you're not already a member, you can find the group HERE.

Each month a few of the designers set challenges to inspire your creativity. This month I've challenged everyone to create a floral explosion, using at least 5 different types of blooms from the D-lish Store. 

Here's a look at my layout with some close ups. 

I never thought I could love this little face any more! Especially now that she LOVEs to take funny face photos with Snapchat.. 

I did go a little crazy with this explosion of flowers, but I couldn't help it! Theres so many pretty ones to choose from in the D-lish Store. The Butterfly is a cut file from The Cut Shoppe, and was accidentally broken in the process of creating.

I'm a little obsessed with glitter paste lately! These wood veneers are perfect to alter with it.

A Pick n Place bow and Butterfly bobby pin tucked into the top. I've had the Butterfly in my stash for so long, that they're no longer available in the shop lol

I think its time to replace the ribbon in my typewriter. Its getting harder and harder to read what I'm journalling about.

And lastly a third butterfly shape and some enamels to finish the layout off.

Fresh Garden Blooms | D-lish Scraps

Hello! Another layout share for D-lish Scraps today

This one was inspired by a Cyber Crop Challenge set by Sandra in the Scrap Suite 

I've chosen to document something other than Leila for this layout. Hooray you say? Well her albums do lol They're running out of space! The variations of Daisies we have growing out the front are still blooming! I didn't even know that was possible this time of the year. But then again, I'm no green thumb. We pretty much just stuck anything in the garden to try it out and see what happened lol 

Here's what I came up with to document the memory of our first Jar of Blooms

I chose 4 different pattern papers from a Simple Stories 6x6 paper pad, sorted out a 3 word title, settled on 2 photos of different sizes and found a Journal it card to match the collection. Last I chose 5 different embellishments from the D-lish Store to compliment the photos and papers within the collection used - Paper Flowers, Flair Button, D-lish Dots, Sequin Bow and some Resin pieces. 

Here's some close ups

I've used the largest size paper doily under all the layers

Die Cut shapes, alphabet stickers and papers are all from the So Fancy collection by Simple Stories

Thats all for my D-lish Scraps shares this month

Thanks so much for stopping by

Until next time, Happy Scrapping

Snapchat Fun | D-lish Scraps

Hello Hello! Its Cybercrop weekend in the D-lish Scraps Scrap Suite and I'm here to share my challenge. It's a fun one ;)

I hope you've got some silly selfies ready to scrap.. 

We love Snapchat selfies here, Especially Leila. But hardly any of them get shared with friends.. until now LOL

I've combined a few of my favourites within this layout. 

A new cut file from The Cut Shoppe "Washi Love" 

Strips of papers from the "Totally Rad" collection by and a pop of pink from the "Hello Lovely' collection, both from Cocoa Vanilla Studio

And a scattering of D-lish Scraps embellishments 

I coated the page pebbles and speech bubble with white paint prior to adding a touch of silver glitter. Then grouped them together with some of my favourite paper flowers, a wood button and an enamel heart. I added a Journal it tab for an extra pop of pink

The song "You're so vain" comes to mind each time I see this photo of myself.. purely just for fun and totally staged HAHA and because the photo's we had prior to this were terrible!

I've teamed the 'Fun' veneer with some alphas from Kaisercraft, both from the D-lish store

and another cluster made up of an altered page pebble, paper flowers, enamel dot and a sequin bow

and lastly the bottom cluster made from more paper flowers, another page pebble, wood button, enamel heart, Journal it tab and minifetti strip

Thanks so much for stopping by, I hope you can visit The Scrap Suite and check out the other challenges we have to share with you all

That's all to share for now, until next time

Happy Scrapping!
