Scrap Around The World - Challenge 14 - Kylie Reed - Australia

My first Scrap Around The World Challenge - June 2014

Below is the mood board for June
I was inspired by the "LOVE" and the combination of the colours Yellow and black.

I used a 5 x 5 photo, the bike is from the Garage Days range from Kaisercraft.


The butterfly (with script) was stamped with grey ink softly for the subtle touch.


Washi tape and chevrons.  There is a flattened black and white straw between the photo and the bike.


Stencil, texture paste and dylusions for the gorgeous yellow background and splatters of black.

Thank you for looking, appreciate any comments you want to make.

Grungy / Messy No. 2

Scrap the Boys is keeping me trying new things, i tend to spread my layout out but this has forced me to gather together instead, i rather love it :) 

Stencils, Dylusions, rub ons, embossed cogs, I used a mixture of embellishments on this one which added to the messy for this layout.  I chose an already grungy paper and just added piece by piece.



Thanks for looking at my work, enjoy and don't be afraid to leave a comment, i love hearing from people :)

On this page i used Kaisercraft Rewind embellishments and stamps, the skull is chipboard dabbed with ink, cork arrow, washi tape, rub ons and Orangegold Ferro (with stencil).  Distressed edges that are inked and a few buttons to bring out the blue in his jeans.  The BOY at the top is a badge that i have glued on with my 450 glue.

Outdoor Adventure

This layout was so fun to do, i would never of put flowers on a boys layout before this challenge.


This photo of my boys is one of my favorites and the paper i have used here was one of my first sets i bought from Kaisercraft.


Not only did i challenge myself with the flowers but i also used the rub on, tags, chipboard and 6" paper pad etc


The edges have been inked with Tim Holtz distressed ink (Walnut)


I am loving being a part of Scrap The Boys..

My flower boy





I did this layout for Scrap the Boy, i love being challenged and adding flowers to a boys layout did this.  The photo i chose is of my eldest son holding a dandelion and is very sweet.  The photo is mounted on cardboard and glued on with 450 glue.  I used wooden hexagons and glued the lovely flowered paper on them and backed it onto a dark blue kiasercraft card stock to help it stand out.  I used my Grand Calibur to cut out the honeycomb and the dark blue hexagons.  Used washi tape to add more colour.  I really like this layout and enjoyed the challenge.

My first Art Journal

After the recent craft show here in Melbourne, i was inspired by Kass Hall and her Art Journal display.  Not knowing much about it as we missed her class (not knowing how awesome this was) i went away with a buzz.  Over the next few days and restless nights i got onto utube and pintrest to see what it was all about.

By now i am still not a full bottle on this but decided i was going to give it a go..  This is my first attempt at Art Journal and Zentangle.

I used a white Kaisercraft paper, acrylic paints, texture paste, gesso, magazine cut outs, washi tape and a sharpie.  The bird is from Kaisercraft and is a wooden embellishment.

I hope you like it :)

My brother and me

I did this page for "Scrap the boy" March Challenge. Using the colours, blue, green and yellow (Dylusions). I used a white Kaisercraft page, a Tim Holtz stencil for the yellow at the top of the page. I used spellbinders for the cogs and circles. The two darker circles and "My brother & me" was chipboard.  I also used texture paste and washi tape. The edges of the page is inked with memento black ink.
