Be Mine LO | Fancy Pants Love Story

Gaby here wishing you a
HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY

Today I am sharing a layout that I created using the left over pieces from the Fancy Pants Love Story Layout Kit that you can find over at the STORE





All I added was a punched butterfly and some twine (not in kit)
Each kit includes 2 single page layouts and 1 two page spread. These kits include easy to follow instructions and extra product for use on other projects.

Here is layout #3 or the two page spread:
...one this layout I changed the position and added a few embellishments created with my cutting machine.

This is layout #1
...on this layout instead of placing pictures as suggested I made it into a pocket layout by stitching around so that my grand daughter can add her Valentine's cards she will be receiving today... and it will be looking something like this:
And finally layout #2
--------





Hope you have a wonderful day today with  your loved ones!  ~Gaby

BasicGrey Kissing Booth Wreath

 Loving this wreath created by BasicGrey designer Amy Friend

You can find all the BasicGrey Kissing Booth Supplies at the Happy N' Scrappin Store 
(Click on the picture and it will take you to the store)

ADDITIONAL SUPPLIES wreath form, ribbon, straight pins.

Amy used a 12″ Styrofoam wreath form and wrapped it in pale pink grosgrain ribbon.  There is no need to glue.  She  just used two straight pins to hold the ribbon on the back and then wrapped and secured it with more pins on the back when Amy came to the end of the spool.  She used the beautiful Kissing Booth double sided card stock to make flowers for the wreath.
Each flower is made up of hearts cut in three sizes.  The inner most ring consists of 4 small hearts, followed by a ring of 5 medium sided hearts and then 5 large hearts.  After cutting the hearts, she poked a small hole in each with the point of my seam ripper.  She then assembled the flower with a brad at the center, followed by a die cut shape, and then by the “petals.”  She folded over the edges of the petals to shape the flower.  Amy also varied the sizes of the flowers by not including the outermost ring on two of them to form medium sized flowers.  The smallest flower is simply made of a ring of small hearts.
Happy wreath making !!!

Fancy Pants Love Story | Layout/Pocket

Happy Tuesday Happy N Scrappin' fans!
Gaby here with the last of the three layouts from the
Fancy Pants Love Story Layout Kit

Instead of adding two pictures like suggested, I converted this layout into a pocket layout so that my grand daughter can keep her Valentine's cards and tags she will be getting at school.
I added some of the cards I have created for display purposes.  Notice that I stitched across the bottom of the argyle pattern so that the cards won't slide all the way down and can be seen when inserted in the layout protector.
This is a closeup of the heart.  In your kit you get a heart pattern so that you can trace and cut your own heart (I used a die).  Additionally it suggests that you create a quilt pattern with the scraps (you have plenty left over).  For my quilt pattern I used a die I have, but you can just cut random squares or use a cutting machine if you have one.
The heart is also a small pocket to keep smaller cards or tags.

Here is a look at the layout without cards... Remember, you can use pictures instead as suggested on your kit.

Reading Christmas Morning LO using FP Winterland

Today I created a layout using Fancy Pants Winterland collection
that you can find at the STORE of my Lauren reading Christmas morning.
~Music to my (librarian) ears!

I "borrowed" the layout from a Basic Grey/Sizzix kit guessing measurements and adding and taking away some elements.
I added some wild (and crazy) machine stitching with brown thread. I additionally added some tin buttons using the collections paper that I created myself.  The title was created using letter included in your collection.



Thanks for stopping by! Soon we will be sharing some new items found at CHA!!

Have a wonderful day!  ~Gaby
