World Spectacular !!!!!!!

Well not quite … but I did make these two layouts using the NEW fantastically lush, World Spectacular designer papers that are in the Annual Catalogue …

I also used the stamp set Affection Collection.  I like to get my moneys worth out of the stamps that I buy, and I always try and think of scrapbooking projects AND card projects that they can be used for, before committing to the purchase.  I like to get value for money, and in this day and age – who doesn’t !!  The same goes for the papers, I have to be able to use them for ALL projects, and thats the great thing about Stampin Up! papers – they’re double-sided, so you get all the benefits of double the papers !

These layouts are based on a couple of the classes from the UKS CYBERCROP that is currently running, and will be running until next week – so if you haven’t signed up yet – you MUST do – the classes and challenges are truly stunning, and there’s lots more to come !  Click on the link HERE and sign up ……

Patchwork Layout and Instructions

Instructions:-

This layout was made using lots of different patterned paper cut into  2.5” x 2.5” squares and then cut diagonally into triangles. 

I then found the centre point of the layout, and measured a 5”x5” square in the middle. 

I then lay out all the triangles around the square until I was happy.

I adhered the photograph into the middle blank square, and then adhered four triangles OVER the photograph using foam pads/dimensionals.  This adds dimension to the layout.

NOTE:  I inked all the triangles, and faux stitched some of them before adhering to the layout

I then distressed the edges of the layout MY way

Add embellishments as you want

Voila !

The photograph is hidden under the patchwork triangles by using dimensionals to add some depth to the layout.
