Kylie Powell

Hi everyone , it's Kylie here .. I am a nurse , a lover of papercrafts and I along with my husband own Shop and Crop Scrapbooking . My love for papercrafts started in 2000 .. in 2011 we saw the opportunity to buy Shop and Crop , initially a brick and mortar store with an online presence , in 2015 we closed our bricks and mortar store , and relocated the business back to our residence to concentrate on the kit side and our online store .

Allowing us to offer great deals on all the popular Scrapbooking supplies , making this hobby more affordable. I love nothing better than to share my love with others through classes , our Crop days , retreats and Papercraft events !!

1 Sketch 2 ways, His and Hers

Hi Guys, its Tanya here!

Today I'm going to share a couple layouts from a single sketch i created (could work great for a double layout). A his and Hers layout, simple to do if you switch the colors of your layout.

The products i used are 

White Watercolor Cardstock (this is my FAVORITE card to use for mixed media)

Oxide inks in Salty Ocean and Abandoned Corral

Random leftovers papers and titles from past kits

Washi Tape

To get started spritz page with water and then smoosh your ink pad onto a non-stick craft mat then smoosh your page into ink

flick with water and dry completely, then stamp randomly using the same color oxide ink

Next grab your sewing machine and add some stitching horizontally in black thread to add contrast and tear thin strips of Washi tape and stick horizontally randomly on page

Thats the background done!!

Now grab some paper scraps and build some layers, cut a tiny bit larger then your photo, 

Once that's all done stick the photo stack to page and add your title.

Repeat this but in the other color for the next page

Here is the sketch i created for this layout

That's all from me for now,

 Thanks for stopping by!

Roxie and Friends

Hi there! I hope you all enjoyed your long weekend!

Today I'm here to share a layout using the papers from PhotoPlay, Roxie and Friends, It such a cute range, I couldn't wait to use it as i have soooo many photos of my cats (they are much more agreeable to be photographed then my kids! haha)

I  have done 3 types of layouts with these papers. A mixed media page, a traditional paper based layout and a project life page, showing just how versatile these papers are!!!

Here is the traditional paper based layout.... there is so many great papers perfect to create lots of layers on your page, i added stitching as well for a little bit more texture.

Then my next page i used the off-cuts from my first layout, and splashed some paint around for a fun messy mixed media background

And my last project with Roxie and Friends, a quick project life page.

This paper range can be purchased at Shop and Crop

That's all from me today, thanks for stopping by!
