ME captured {MERLY IMPRESSIONS & KAISERCRAFT}

hello KAISERCRAFT fans! 

it is a new year and there are a lot of news to share and a lot of new craft goodies to work with!
i'm so excited that CHRISSY, the owner of MERLY IMPRESSIONS, invited me to stay in the team for another year! i really enjoy working with amazing ladies of this team!

this month i have the pleasure of designing with one of the newest KAISERCRAFT collections “CLOSE UP”. i really love this paper line – it has all the right images and embellishments for the perfect “in the spotlight” layout! so, i decided to begin this year with a page about me and one of the things i love best – travelling and taking pictures.

"ME CAPTURED"




for my background i used KAISERCARD coconut weave cardstock. i stamped the edge of the cardstock using TIM HOLTZ mini distress ink pad kit 11 – tea dye and KAISERCRAFT film edges clear stamp. then i trimmed 0.5cm from each side of the LENS pattern paper, ruffled its edges with paper distresser and adhered it with KAISERCRAFT 12mm double-sided tape onto the white cardstock.


 to create the pattern on the background paper i used clear stamp diamonds with mini distress ink pad kit 3 – black soot. for the white dimensional pattern i used modelling paste and TIM HOLTZ bubble layering stencil.


i layered my pictures on an orange paper from the 6.5″ paper pad and embellished them with different die cuts from the COLLECTABLES pack.


i also used 12" pattern papers from the “CLOSE UP” collection to fussy cut some more pretty images, like the vintage camera {FOCUS pattern paper} on the picture below… 


...and the film strip {FILM pattern paper}. i added two quotes from the 6.5″ paper pad in two of the “windows” of the orange film strip and i stamped the word DREAM in the third one {KAISERCRAFT clear stamps life sentiments}.


to finish off my design i added two stamped phrases using KAISERCRAFT captured moments document clear stamps and PEARLS lush.


i hope you enjoyed today’s post!

have a happy scrappy weekend!

hugs 'n smiles,

What an awesome layout Emmy. Love the film strip with the incorporated quotes. The color scheme works really well with your photos too. Really pretty.
