July Cyber Crop at Mystical Scrapbooks

Good morning

I have got a layout to share today.
I created this layout for the Cyber Crop at Mystical Scrapbooks.
You will find the Cyber Crop here

There are three challenges in this Crop and this layout if for the challenge 
that requires you to use a flip on your layout.

You can see what I mean in the photos below.

The centre photo opens out to reveal two more photos underneath.



I used papers from the Uniquely Creative Steampunk Safari collection for this layout.

To create the background I used Scattered Straw and Rusty Hinge Distress Inks through 


I have two photos measuring 3 1/2" x 6" and three measuring 3" x 6".
The smaller photos are in the flip section of my layout.
I used Steampunk Safari - Technical paper to matt the photos and to make the flip.

I used Uniquely Creative's Steampunk Safari - Awesome and Basic Grey's Green at Heart - Kermit papers behind the two outside photos along with a piece of the same cardstock I used to matt the whole layout.

I have sewn around everything with my sewing machine and black thread, 
including a circle in the middle of the layout.

To embellish the layout I used some items from the Steampunk Safari Creative Cuts 
and some fussy cut items from Steampunk Safari - Unique patterned paper

I cut the title from black cardstock using my Kaisercraft DD700 Alphabet Upper Case die.
I added a coat of Glossy Accents.

My process video is below.
In the video I also show you how I add my layout to a page protector 
in my album so the flip can be opened.


Don't forget to pop over to Mystical Scrapbook and check out the Cyber Crop

Thanks for being here today
Till next time
Stay safe

Week 8 Mystical Scrapbooks Retro TV Program Competition

Hello hello

It's the final week of the Retro TV Program Challenge at Mystical Scrapbooks this week

You will find the challenge here

The program for this week is Happy Day's
What a great program it was and who wasn't "in love" with Fonzy, 
I know I was. He was so cool.

The colour scheme for this week is denim and silver,
the required technique is paper tearing,
it must be a masculine layout 
and the item from the optional kit is chipboard cogs.

Here is my layout


The papers I have used are from Uniquely Creative's Country Roads paper collection

The background is a sheet of The Real Deal patterned paper,
I have used Colour Blast Honey Hive - Love and Grace A4 stencil
and Faded Jeans Distress Ink to add some interest.

My photos are 4" square.
I have used an emery board to file around the edges of each of them.

I tore two strips of The Back Paddock paper and ran them down the sides of three of the photos

This panel was added to the left hand side of the layout 
and one of the photos, which is matted on a piece of The Back Paddock paper
is featured on the right hand side of the layout.

All of the photos are mounted on cardboard.

I added a strip of black cardstock to both edges of the photo panel 
and also to the left and right edges of the layout.

I used Memory Maze Pick up Sticks Square frame chipboard 
and the chipboard cogs from the optional kit to embellish the layout.

Each piece was painted with white acrylic paint and then silver acrylic paint.

I cut the frame in half and placed it around the fourth photo and the cogs
were added to the top right of the photo panel and the bottom right of the layout.

I created a third cluster using Uniquely Creative's Silver Metal Cogs to the bottom left of the photo panel.
I also adde one of the metal cogs to each of the other cog clusters.


I cut the title from black cardstock using Kaisercraft's DD700 Alphabet Upper Case dies.

This is attached in the top right of the layout using liquid glue


All of the details are in this video.
I hope you find time to watch and enjoy it.


Till next time
Stay safe
Hugs
