January 21, 2018 – The Crafty Maven Getaway

Hello everyone. I am back with a Stash It Monday post. For today’s layout I am using an older collection, Maggie Holmes, Crate Paper “Bloom”. For this page I kept the layering pretty simple and just stuck with pieces from the collection. I only added a doily and tissue paper from my stash.

I added a bit of mixed media on the background using my gesso first and then a few Shimerz – Inklings products.

I really like the texture the “i love you” embellishment gave the layout along with the tissue paper and doily.

I topped it all off with some die-cuts, enamel stickers and a few washi elements.

Thanks for stopping by. Make sure you check out the process video as well as join us on our Facebook page. Happy scrapping. Kelly

I am so excited to be sharing this Stash it Monday layout with you all because it uses one of my absolute favorite collections which is the Wild at Heart collection by Coco Vanilla. I only have a few pices of this paper left but i have been hoarding it becuase it is so pretty and I really need to put it to use already.

I am also determined to finish the baby album this year, I know I said this last year but this year I mean it! I took some random photos from the baby’s first year and laid them out in a grid format which is always my go to when I want to scrap but I am unsure of what I want to do. I then added some embellishments that have been in my stash forever and I called this layout done. It literally only took me 20 minutes and I am so happy with it.

The collection choice came from the blue/teal that is in the inspiration piece from this month and I am thinking that at some point I can recreate this watercolor paper myself!

I hope you were inspired go stash hunting and be sure to join us in the Facebook group for tons of fun!
