Memories - Laura Gilhuly

 Hi everyone!
I am back to share another layout I created for my husbands childhood album!

2Crafty Products used:

Fine Word Set 3
Mini Lattice Bits
Ariels Spray
Decorative Circle Accents

I love this flourish - it is so beautiful!  I prepped all the chipboard with gesso then used an orange and green gelato.  I spritzed with water then rubbed with my finger.

I tucked the decorative circle under the photo and embossed the title in white so it would stand out a bit.

I added the mini lattice bits with the flower clusters adding texture to the cluster.

Tthanks for stopping by

Giggle - Laura Gilhuly

 Hello everyone!
Laura here to share a layout a created for my husbands childhood album!

2Crafty Products used:

6x6 Summertime Sheets
ATC Tiny Hearts & Stars
Mini Buttons
Decorative Circle Accents

I prepped the chipboard with white gesso then painted each piece coordinating with the beautiful baby boy paper.

I painted the stars in a pale yellow and added them amongst the fussy cut images.

The Decorative Circle Accent piece has been altered in dark blue and the cute little Buttons altered in pale blue and I've scattered these around the top cluster.

I have also added some Tiny Hearts from the ATC Tiny Hearts/Stars Pack, these I've altered in an off-white/cream as I did for the title.

I also added some pieces to clusters of elements

We are Family - Laura Gilhuly

 Hi everyone!

I am back to share my next layout for my husbands album!

The old photos are such a wonderful trip down memory lane and I feel fortunate to 
be able to create with them.

2Crafty Products used:

We are Family Title
Decorative Circle Accents
Delicate Lace Border
Mini Chunky Funky Bits

After prepping the pieces with white gesso I decided to paint them in bright colours matching the colourful paper I chose.

Although I normally work with darker or muted tones working with bright and cheerful
 colours is always fun!

As a finishing touch when the paint was still wet I randomly added a little bit of glitter to some
of the pieces.

I like continuity and used the same chipboard pieces per set of pages

The next few pages I have used lots of Flourish style pieces and some foliage as well as a

couple of titles.

The next set of pages are of my husband as a child then of us as a family

For this set of pages, I used more masculine pieces and loved cutting up pieces from Decorative Panels, like the Square Collage Panel and the Bright Dot Panel

Now I've added some Mini Lattice Pieces, Circle Lace and Decorative Circle Accents

and finally, the last set of pages are of the youngest as a kid and then with his family

For these pages, I've added some Mini Funky Chunky Bits, with some more flourish pieces
