Creative Warriors Inspiration # 43

My second Inspiration Post this month for Michelle's Creative Warriors, I have created a layout using one of the black and white images from this month's April Wishes Challenge pack by Michelle Grant.


For my background, I printed off a background paper on tissue from Michelle's Believe July 2022 Challenge pack.
Next I added some stencilling. I then added my image and also fussy cut some of the flower mushroom groups added them as well. I used Distress Crayons to give a diluted colour on my images.
I then used some foam stamps to stamp my quote and a black pen to outline my words, as well as giving my layout a border. 

I hope I have inspired you just a little bit.

Until next time, keep chasing white unicorns!

Magical Memories Collection Scrapbook Layout 4

Sharing another Scrapbook Layout using Magical Memories Collection from Scrapbook Fantasies.


I have used Magical Memories Paper #3 for the frame and base page as well as both photo matts.
My rectangle focal mat under photo matts is from Paper #6.
I fussy cut Ephemera Elements from Paper #5 and adhered with glue and foam tape to lift the frog and the smaller mushrooms off the page.
My Chippie Cut word Adventurous is coloured with a combination of Distress Oxide Broken China and Faded Jeans.
I added some Paint splatters with Distress Oxide Scorched Timber, Broken China and Faded Jeans to give it a more boys feel.

I am quite happy with how it has turned out.

Until next time, keep chasing white unicorns!

Magical Memories Collection Scrapbook Layout 3

Sharing another Scrapbook Layout using Magical Memories Collection from Scrapbook Fantasies.


I have used Magical Memories Paper #2 as my main page.
I have also used Paper #6 (purple timber & leaves) as my card matt & side strip with a hint of Paper #1 Blue Bricks.
Next I fussy cut leave branches from Paper #6, and a Butterfly from Paper #2 to adhere to the right of my photo on top of a piece of muslin.
On the bottom left, I used a Cup, Envelope and red wax seal  from the Vintage Writing Desk Colour Cuts - saved me some fussy cutting right there!
I used the Mason Jar Chippie Cut and coloured with Distress Oxide Picked Raspberry and Wilted Violet and then gave it a light spray of water.
Lastly, I used the Chippie Cut "Believe" with Distress Oxide Speckled Egg rubbed over the top. 

Until next time, keep chasing white unicorns!

Magical Memories Collection Cards 2

Sharing another couple of cards I made using the Magical Memories Collection from Scrapbook Fantasies.




Card 1 is an Easel Card using a Kraft shaped Card base with additional Kraft cardstock for top of easel card and white cardstock for inside matt.
I used Magical Memories Paper #5 for Card matt front and base of easel card as well as Vintage Writing Desk Colour Cuts.

Card 2 is a mixed media card. Using a plain white card base, I used Light Modeling Paste through the Blotchy Spots Stencil. When dry, I used Archival Inks Fossilized Amber and Crackling Campfire with Blending Foams to create a nice warm background and adding texture.
I then used Magical Memories Paper #5 for Fox, mushrooms and flowers from it's ephemera elements side. I also used a Scrapbook Fantasies "Just for You" Flair. I also used some Plumbers Dry Wall Tape to ground my fox.

I have to say that the Fox card is just so cute!

Until next time, keep chasing white unicorns!

Magical Memories Collection Scrapbook Layout 2

Sharing another Scrapbook Layout using Magical Memories Collection from Scrapbook Fantasies.


I have cut Paper #1 into two pieces. I reversed one side and trimmed 1/2 inch off. I then adhered this to Paper #4 so a thin border was showing.
I created my photo cluster using Paper #4 as my main focal frame. I also used half of the book page on another sheet of Paper #1 and cut a matt from the Brick side of Paper #1 for my focal photo matt.
To frame my photo, I have used some Leaves from Paper #6 ephemera elements, Flowers from Magical Memories A4 Colour Fussy-Cut Essentials, White Cosmos Flowers, Clock from Magical Memories Colour-Cuts - Vintage Writing Desk and NoteBook from Paper #2 ephemera elements.
I set this aside and used a texture colour paste as well as an Archival Ink through the Springs stencil to link all my pages and give some texture.
Once dry I adhered my photo cluster.

I have a few more projects to show you in the coming days.

Until next time, keep chasing white unicorns!
