Echo Park – The Crafty Maven Getaway

Hello everyone it is Crystal with Pineapple Papers and I am up on the Crafty Maven Getaway with some fun way to use your stash. First I am starting with this “Beautiful” cut file. I believe that it is from COAPA. I think it was a free one on the Facebook group.

I used the Jack and Jill 6×6 paper pad to back the cut file. This is a great way to use your 6×6 paper pads or even your scraps. Which if you are like me you have a ton of.

After that the layout came together pretty fast. I just used a sticker sheet from Echo Park to embellish. To create some dimension I popped some of the sticker up with some foam squares.

To finish off the page I used the sequin mix Gum Drops from Spiegelmom Scraps.

I hope you head over to the YouTube Channel and check out the process.

Remember to wear your Crown!

Bye

Hey crafty friends! I’m so very excited to be joining you for my first project. It’s totally not how I planned since my video footage was lost during file transfer, but I wanted to share the layout with you anyway.

I used a sketch from Scrapbook Generation one page sketch book volume one, but my layout came out NOTHING like the sketch. The biggest difference between my layout and the sketch is that the sketch called for four photo, but as you can see I used two. There was also nothing on the right hand side, but I felt it was to white and added he strips and stickers.
.
I also used the mood board for the month as inspiration for my photo. I know you’re thinking how in the world does this tie into the elegant board we have for the month. Well…see that cupcake in the lower right hand corner. There you go! The tie in is that I’m posting on Michael’s 8th birthday.

I also used the lined paper as inspiration and used the notebook looking green paper from my kit. This is an old Echo Park Kit called That’s my Boy. I’m really trying to kill some of the stuff I have so I can’t say how much new product you’ll see in my future projects.

Ok, I better run. I have things to do before our little family birthday gathering tonight. Thanks for checking my creation out!
