Glitz Designs - Finnley - The Scrapbook Store

Hello and happy Monday ☺ I have another share for The Scrapbook Store - using Glitz - the Finnley collection. I'm really enjoying these papers and the other bits from this collection - very easy to work with and super fun.

This is a very recent photo of our road trip that we made during the past school holidays. And I've used the really cool 12x12 pattern paper Drip as my background. It has a mixed media feel about it with the design of dripping paint - I've added in some white paint mixed with water, also using the dripping effect. Love how it's turned out. All the products on this page are from the collection - I've also added in a WOW wood veneer word and a Green Tara flower stem.
Here are some close-up's:

Sometimes I like to make my own embellishments. This is a simple flower using a scallop punch - using different pattern papers from the 6x6 paper pad, punch out five scallops. Layer together, distressing them as you go along. Adhere together with a pin and then add one of the rhinestones from this collection. I've also free-cut a leaf to add behind the flower.

The 'today' word is from WOW wood veneers - there are three different words in the pack and they are a lovely font. I've used sticker letters from this collection to make my title.

I keep going back to 'banner style pages' ☺ Here I've made an arrow with a long 'kebab stick'. Using the pattern papers I've free cut an arrow and some feather style leaves for the end. I've attached some mini pegs and also added in the Green Tara flower.
I've also used the super cute feather roller stamp from this collection on the black paper which mats the photo - I love using white ink on black paper to give a 'chalk board' effect.

This collection is selling very well, but there are still some papers and embellishments left - please check the online store.

The Scrapbook Store - Finnley - Glitz Designs.

Hello everyone - it's been a little while. School holidays have now passed and we are back into the swing of things. I've started creating with my Design Team kit from The Scrapbook Store - this month I'm working with 'Finnley' by Glitz Designs.
Woodland animals… Feathers… Trendy colors… Triangles… Full of Whimsy… The Finnley collection is full of love, & will be perfect for babies, relationships, & everything else in between! (as quoted on the Glitz Design website)
Here is my first page:

This photo was perfect for this collection - my nephews and niece enjoying a special moment with their new sister - totally adorable ♥
I've put together this page using the pattern papers in this collection, as well as some stickers, the feather stamp roller, Green Tara flower stems and some WOW wood veneer shapes.
Here are some close-up's of the details:

I love pegs and creating bunting style pages. This is one of the stickers from the collection which I've matted onto white cardstock.

And here is another sticker , also matted onto white cardstock. I've also used a Green Tara flower stem as part of the banner, along with cotton thread.

The title is little words from the alphabet sticker sheet - the stickers are just so cute and can easily be added to your photo's for extra details. I've also used a wood veneer word 'love' by WOW.
