For this weeks memory keeping Monday post I’m sharing 2 fun fully flowering ephemera layouts. I had mentioned in Fridays live that Stampin’ Up!’s ephemera packs make for quick & easy crafting and I shared these three cards. However, they don’t just make for quick & easy cards but scrapbook layouts as well.
I’ve got two to share with you today. In addition to the Fully Flowering ephemera pack, I also used the labels & layers and saying something ephemera packs. The labels & layers are perfect layering pieces on your layouts. You’ll see lots of the different label shapes tucked in behind the photos to create interest. And the Saying Something pack is perfect for titles on layouts!
Hip Hip Hooray Layout
This first layout features a mix of the black & white florals and some of the coloured images, some labels and two of the larger words from the Saying Something ephemera pack. I started by doing the packaging technique to the background of the white and once dry added some black splatters. Then I layered a few strips of pattern paper and card stock to ground my photos.
After that it was just a matter of choosing some embellishments and layering them. It came together so quickly!
Hello, Hey, Howdy Layout
For the second layout I decided to add some colour to the black & white floral images that I chose. I used my Stampin’ Blends to colour them in. The words were all different colours and didn’t really work with my layout so I used my blends to make them work. ‘Hello’ was coloured using Granny Apple Green blends to create an ombre look and the word ‘Howdy’ was colored using the Bronze blend.
After positioning everything it still felt like it needed a little something so I took one of my circle dies and just traced around it with a black marker then added some gems. It’s amazing how something so small like this can really impact a layout.
I love how these two layouts came together and can’t wait to create a few with the Something for Everything ephemera pack which has lots of random images in it.
