Hello Magpies, Helen here! I have a second layout using the 49 & Market Kaleidoscope page kit for you. I’ve taken the elements from the 2nd suggested page and made my own layout with a few wax seals added in. The wax seals I’ve used are a mix of exclusive ones designed by Sarah for Hey Little Magpie and the lovely open rose. As always, I have a process video for you which you can find here. Until next time.

Hello everyone, Here’s my latest layout using the ‘Wherever’ collection from 49 & Market. I think I’m running out of words to describe this collection, it’s perfect for all your outdoor photos & has an amazing array of ephemera! EXCURSION   I started this layout by cutting a brick shaped pattern from cardstock & painting it using Nuvo Drops Metallic Copper Penny.  I deliberately left the colour to dry unevenly to match the collection’s style.   Using cardstock pieces from the collection to layer behind the photo, I placed the brick pattern  on the left.   ..read more

Hello Magpies, I’m back today sharing a layout using the newest Pinkfresh collection Picture Perfect. It’s full of Pinkfresh’s signature colours & beautiful florals & fabulous embellishments. I chose all the blue & yellow tones, out the collection & set about making a grid page. I love a grid & all the possibilities & directions it can take your page. I used Cherish Today patterned paper as my background & added a white cardstock 9×9″ centre piece to add all my elements onto. I added some Salvaged Patina oxide ink to peek out behind the embellishments. I played ar ..read more

Hi Magpies. Amy here. Today I’m sharing a layout using one of my all time favourite and reliable designs, the classic 3*2 grid layout. I’m using the new travel collection by Simple Stories that is called Pack Your Bags. To add a twist to this classic layout design I used Hey Little Magpies stamp die set. I cut patterned papers using a medium sized die to make stamp edged shapes. I love that the die sets add some embossing details too. To two of the patterned papers I added my photos. I made them smaller than the stamp shaped patterned papers so that the paper frames the photos. On another ..read more

Hey Everyone, happy Sunday I hope everyone is ok, and are finding time to craft! I’m back on the blog and YouTube with another video showcasing a 15mm wax seal and Sarah’s fabulous fern dies. I used the 49 & Market Kaleidoscope collection to complete a layout of Dexter. I wasn’t going to buy this collection until I saw Helen’s layout, then I just couldn’t resist. I finished my layout, then decided that Sarah’s dies would really complement the layout. I also used the 15mm Open Rose Wax Seal, which I love. To see my video, please click here Thanks for watching! Until next time. The post 49 ..read more

If you’re considering what collection to use with bright sunny photos then Simple Stories Just Beachy is the perfect Collection. The colours are really bright and colourful, almost tropical. I am sharing my second layout using it for some photos from Australia last year, the bright yellow I thought may be a problem in my photo, but it works perfectly with this collection. As usual I had multiple photos to scrap so I chose to make them 3 ” square to fit them all in. I used the remainder of my 12×12 Take is Easy paper and ripped both edges and used it as a start point at the top of the layout ..read more

Hi everyone, I have another layout to share using  ‘Wherever’ from 49 & Market, it’s a great collection for outdoor photos, so hopefully we’ll have some warmer weather & get outside with our cameras. SCENIC ROUTE   I began by applying some pale green ink in the centre, using a blending brush, then added the rub-on sun rays at the top. (These were from my own stash.) You could draw them or make them using Washi tape to get a similar effect.   I made 3 tags to go behind the photo, distressed the edges & embellished them with various bits of ephemera from the Chipboar ..read more

Hello Magpies, Can you believe it’s April already!! I, for one, am looking forward to some brighter & longer days & that said have been enjoying using some bright, fun collections. This one, Whatevs, really caught my eye with the vibrant colours & fun sayings & paper good & groovy was just perfect for my photo. While on holiday we visited this street called Spice Alley & it had stripes on the floor which were the exact colours in that paper!!! I first cut out the section of paper I needed & laid onto some black cardstock, marking where it would go. Then using some ..read more

Hey everyone! Well what an Easter week that was! Both myself and hubby have both been down with a nasty stomach bug, so it was lovely to get back to my craft room. This time I’m finishing a layout using the Simple Stories Winter Wonder Collection, and a few wax seals. I’ve used a pre-made camera seal, and 2 snowflake wax seals, one of which I added glitter too. I didn’t think I would be completing winter layouts in April, but that’s what happens when your Son goes to Austria with work! To watch my process video, please click here!
