Jacobi Creations

Definitely one of my favourite layouts currently, alot of my green layouts I do like alot to be honest.  This one is for the World's Greatest Dad and perhaps I need to keep this one for myself and put the Dad that is my beautiful partner in it, well, not him, just a picture of him!  I used the pretty chipboard of little hearts from Dusty Attic in this along with one of their stencils.  Anyway, I hope you like it. Wishing you fun in your creative journey, see you again soon, Delia

Flower Power is the theme of the month over at A2Z scrapbooking this month.  Literally, say no more!  I do believe we have already established that I loooove flowers.  Not in my garden though, just in my art!  I prefer non-flowering plants in my garden - strange, I know!! So, using the Hero Arts Digital Download called Pretty Blossoms I coloured the flowers in photoshop and then printed them out on gloss photo paper and fussy cut them out.  I started with some white card and clear gessoed it so that it was prepared for future textures and sprays.  Using a Kaisercraft flower stencil I used white embossing paste and applied that to the background and them mixed some white embossing paste with some "Polka Purple" from Lindy's Magicals and applied that through a Prima stencil.  My favourite Lindy's Magical is "Oom Pah Pah Pink" and so I lightly sprinkled some of that over the embossed background and hit it with the water spray and it certainly worked it...

Recently, I got to do a layout for a friend of a beautiful baby boy in blue.  Really gorgeous little boy too.  Anyhoo, I had lots of fun with this layout, using 3 different stencils, Kaisercraft ephemera and a lovely piece of ScrapFX chipboard. The background paper is from the Kaisercraft Frosted range that has Christmas elements on it, so I just covered those up creatively with ripped paper panels top and bottom.  I had a bit of fun with stencilling on this one, using 3 different stencils all with silver embossing paste.  The butterfly stencil is also from Kaiser, but I must confess that I am a little in love with it.  The ephemera is also from Kaisercraft, but the swirly chippy piece is from Scrap FX, which I embossed using a few different powders.  The lattice panel, I cut out on the Silhouette and painted with some silver watercolour paint.  This is a really pretty layout and once it goes in a white frame, it will look beautifully finished. ...
