January 6, 2016 – The Crafty Maven Getaway

Aloha Crafty Mavens!! We have reached hump day and this week I trying to get my earrings back after a very nice holiday season. Back to school, back to normal chores and routines and back to work!! Thank Goodness for all the inspiration on The Crafty Maven Getaway Channel to help me not lose my mind from all that needs to be done around me!!

Today on The Crafty Maven Getaway Tanya Hubbard created an awesome layout. It mights me want to go to the beach or go sit in the sun.

“Firstly I do apologise for not using the inspiration piece but as I mention in my video – we’re right in the middle of a very hot summer and I just didn’t have any wintery type photos to scrap; so I went with a project I’m working on which is scrapping some photos of a trip my kids took to Mauritius with my family. Some mixed media goodness in the background and layering of embellishments around the photo finish it off. I really like how my background turned out; I feel the yellow paper on the left offsets the whole thing nicely,” Tanya explains.

Here are some pictures of her layout.

You can watch her process video here.

You can also see more videos on her personal Youtube Channel.

Also posting to the Crafty Maven Getaway is Crafty Meggy. I really like Megan’s classic style layout. The design is really nice and simple, but it really helps the patterns on the paper stand out. Here is what Megan says about her layout.

“For this layout I was really inspired by the pure white in a couple of the mood board pieces. Some close friends of ours were sealed together as a family recently and this photo of them all in white just stood out to me as I searched for a photo to fit the inspiration piece. I kept the layout simple because I wanted the focus to be on them and the wonderful event that took place that day in their lives.”
