Cutting the Cake | Artdeco Creations

#kerriegurney #artdecocreations #ultimatecrafts

Hi Everyone  it's Kerrie back with another wedding layout for Artdeco Creations Blog
I created this layout using Ultimate Crafts Rambling Rose Cardmakers Collection Pack
The Cardmakers pack is perfect for creating quick beautiful layouts as it has not only exclusive 12x12 paper designs including quad papers but it also has diecut embellishments and border strips.



to start I cut the center out of this piece of paper to create a decorative border for my layout and this way you you are not wasting your patterned paper and can use the middle section on another project


I cut some of the diecut pieces to tuck into my layers, this is a great way to use up embellishments that you like but the picture on them doesn't go with what you are working on



here is a look at my layers, I have started with a full quad piece and worked up my layers, distressing the edges of all my pieces. The doily peeking out is from the L'Aquarelle Die Cut Doily Set, I just flipped it over to use the white side rather than the blue side.


here is a closer look at my cluster of flowers, these are left overs from my last layout I always colour more than needed then you have them ready for your next project and as I want to do a few layouts from the wedding I know I will use them all up.



a closer look at all the layers, When I can get to my sewing machine I will add a stitched border.
I have kept the layout clean as I really wanted this gorgeous photo of Rachael and Jacob to shine

Moments Together | Celebr8

#kerriegurney #celebr8

Hi Everyone
Kerrie here with a layout I created using Celebr8's Summer Adventure Collection

Although this is a beachy summer collection it works perfectly for family photos and other occasions

I have used the papers along with some of the mattboard embellishments and the organza and tulle flower which i hit with the heat gun to create a flower with more character
The title is from another collection, not sure which one sorry.


I added some texture using the Seamless Borders Mask along with Couture Creations Anna Griffin Texture Paste and a sprinkle of glitter




I decided to leave the mattboard all natural as I liked the look and feel it gave my layout.

Bride + Bridesmaids | Artdeoco Creations

#kerriegurney
#artdecocreations #ultimatecrafts #couturecreationsaus

Hi Everyone
Kerrie here with a layout I created for the Artdeco Creations Blog 

As soon as I saw the photos from Rachael and Jacob's Wedding I knew they would be perfect for the Ultimate Crafts Rambling Rose Collection.
So I asked the beautiful Bride if I could please scrap some of them. I'm so happy she said yes which means yes there will be more wedding layouts coming from me.
I thought I would start with this gorgeous photo of  Rachael and her Bridesmaids first up with the Rambling Rose papers perfectly complimenting the girls  beautiful purple dresses



Firstly I folded the Corned Roses paper in half and drew on a half heart shape making sure my photo fitted inside the heart. I then cut it out


I distressed the edges of the heart and  then gave the heart a spritz with my Purple Shimmer Spray that I made up using the Couture Creations Anna Griffin Pigment. While still wet I scrunched the heart up into a ball and then unflurled it and set aside to dry


I have cut the border off my stencil which gives me more freedom with the stencil.
I don't like to have a solid edge to it


I then added some texture using the Couture Creations Anna Griffin Embossing Paste


While still wet sprinkle on some Couture Creations Anna Griffin Purple Glitter and set aside to dry


I then grabbed some paper flowers, wood shapes, feather sprig and muslin and spritz them all with my Purple Shimmer Spray. I dried them off a little using my heat tool and then set aside to dry off


I cut these three panels from the Reflections patterned paper and distressed the edges
I then layered all my pieces onto the Wood Panel Roses patterned paper. Starting off with these panels, then adding the crumpled heart and then some ephemera pieces from the ephemera pack


I cut some leaves from Cornered Roses patterned paper and then
I added a piece of muslin so it was coming out from under the photo and then layered on the flowers, feather sprig and wood shapes, finishing off with some pearls


to add some dimension I have used foam tape under some layers
