Navy Seals project using Creative Embellishments Accents and Paper House Nautical Collection


Hi everyone. Hope your having a great day. I am sharing a page today that showcases the Navy Seal Museum we visit in Florida while there. Creative Embellishments Chipboards were the perfect accents. Paper House paper collection Nautical was perfect paper for these photos. 

Supply List:
Chipboard: Creative Embellishments Chunky Alphabet Set, Patriotic Stars. Distressed Chicken Wire
Paper:Paper House Nautical Collection KTSP - 1029


I started with my basic paper layers and pulled accents to showcase the photos.


I start by removing everything and then gluing from the bottom up to front.


In the next close ups I share the details better for your viewing. I left the chipboards in their natural colour for this page. I used lots of accent stickers too from the paper collection.


The stars were amazing on this page.


 

Thanks for stopping by... hope to see you soon.

Amazing Tags layout using Creative Embellishments products


Today I am sharing a waterfront page project for Creative Embellishments and showcasing these great tag accents along with many more.
When we are in Florida I have a great time taking photos of the area, the water, the beaches and many places we visit and spend time at. For this page we go and walk the getty to see birds, fish, beach and sail surfers. They even have benches along the walk to sit and enjoy the sun. 

Supply List:
Chipboards: Creative Embellishments Tag Album, Wave border 2, Chunky alphabet set
Stencil: Creative Embellishments Paint
Paper: Blue Fern Studio Products: Paper Happy Accident collection
Embossing Powder: Blue Fern Studios Imagine Ink 
Sequins: 28 Lilac Lane Sunflower Sky
Markers: copic
Pen: signo white gel
Ink: Tim Holtz ranger
Glue:  Beacon 3-in-1 glue, ScraPerfect Best Ever Glue
Other: Liquitex Modeling Paste, ribbon, ScraPerfect Best Cleaner Ever. Heat Gun


For this page I started the background with stenciling the paint stencil using modeling paste and let it dry.


I then added embossing powder and to add some random colour.


For the chipboard I used my copic markers


I first used a very dark navy for the wave, added a few darker blue line in the wave and then added more dimension using a signo white gel pen. It is perfect.


The tags I left plain this time and added cut down photos of the great beach front and getty. I tied them off with a ribbon.


In this close up you can see the unfinished title letters and the amazing fun shiny sequins, buttons mixed with beads. The perfect sparkle for being around the water when the sun shines on it.


The photos were sized to fit the best they could without losing the photo details.


The rustic, textured stenciling is a great mix for this page. The background was done with white base and smaller central piece of print paper . 


 



Thanks for stopping by today... Hope to see you again soon,

Creative Embellishments has posted the July 1st Challenge.... Use at least 1 thing from the mood board and the twist is to add stars and stripes. Isn't that fun.

Chipboards: Creative Embellishments  star doodle frame  chunky alphabet set wavy filmstrip 
Other: Sew Easy ink roller, metal star brads, Paper House Sculpted Accent Pack DCA -0006

so my  page starts with the basic sketch creating the layered background. I then picked my chipboards and some accents.


In the close ups you can see the details and accents better.


More accents.... and the sew easy ink roller stars.


Great accents including the Chunky Alphabet Set to make the title 'Canada' and some metal star brads.
