The new Our House collection is just beautiful, with so many lovely elements to create a gardening layout!
I gave my grandchildren a tray of Marigolds and asked them to plant the seedlings for me. They were so excited and focussed at the same time. Big sis, of course, knowing everything about gardening and taking the lead here. They enjoyed this outdoor activity so much and so did I, with my camera.
I used white cardstock as the base for my layout.
For this layout, I cut strips from the Crafter’s Paradise (b-side), Wallpaper (a and b-sides), Garden Delight (b-side) and Flutters (b-side) and glued them to the base paper. I glued a sheet of Garden Delight (a-side) on top of the strips.
I then fussy cut elements and quotes from the Crafter’s Paradise and Cosy Room papers suitable for my layout.
I inked the two Holy Chip! chipboard titles with Versa Magic in Cloud White to make them stand out more.
I inked the one butterfly chipboard and the boot chipboard with Versa Magic in Night Sky, dry brushed with white gesso and rubbed with distress stickles.
The rest of the chipboard elements were all inked with Brilliance Ink in Rocket Red, Sky Blue, Sunflower Yellow and also dry brushed with white gesso and rubbed with distress stickles.
I splattered the chippies and flowers with diluted white gesso before adhering them to the layout.
We LOVE Adri’s ‘Our House’ gardening layout. What a fabulous way to keep the young ones busy – finding magic in the ordinary – while taking beautiful photos to scrap with!
