Do the Things with Guest Designer Laura

Good morning!

Hey Everyone, it's Laura, and I am excited and sad about sharing my next project with you!  Excited because I absolutely loved working with these papers and sad because it is my final projects as guest designer for White Rose Crafts!

I chose a photo that I love but is hard to scrap because of the bright green trees and he is wearing blue and I did not want to make the photo black and white

On the back of the title card on the paper pack is another design perfect for those accent pieces (its the flowered one).  One of the reasons I love this paper!

I fussy cut the flowers from one of the papers and used pop dots to add dimension

 I added a few flowers to the fussy cut piece and to the cluster - the lilies and the white rose are from White Rose crafts the rest are from my stash

 I covered the chipboard in clear gesso and then used my grey gelato and a little bit of water!

Thanks for stopping by and thank you to the team at White Rose!  I have really enjoyed guest designing for you!

Have a great day!

Laura

Cherish with Guest Designer Laura

Good morning!

Laura here and I am back to share a another layout I created for my Guest Design  Team spot for White Rose Crafts LLC.

This months theme that the guest designers were asked to create with is fall/Halloween so I created a fall layout!

I used the awesome Graphic 45 Love notes collection pack!

I know that these papers are really loved themed but I really enjoy using themed papers for something other than their original theme!

I used some flowers from my stash and these wonderful metal roses from White Rose.  I altered them a bit with some orange paint 

I painted and misted the title piece from my stash and tied a piece of orange cord around the photo also from my stash!

Thanks for stopping by!

October Sketch Challenge with Guest Designer Laura

Good morning!

Laura here again with another project for White Rose!

This time I created a layout for the October sketch challenge 

Here is the sketch

It was fun creating a layout with a card sketch!

I used the beautiful Craft O'Clock 'My Precious Boy' paper pack

I tucked in some chipboard hearts into my clusters that I simply inked blue

The white roses are from White Rose LLC and the rest are from my stash.

There is still some of time to join in on the fun with this month's sketch.  Make sure you pop over to the WRC Facebook Gallery to submit your project.

Magical Wee Books By Kim

Good morning and happy October! I have some fun and magical wee books to share with you today, using some amazing products from White Rose Crafts.

I started off using some black cardstock from my stash and created my own wee little book using a chipboard base. I glued the chipboard to the cardstock on both sides and this formed the base of the books.

I used the American Crafts "Haunted Hollow" paper for the top of the books. This paper had different book covers on it, so it was perfect for this project.  I also used some Frayed Burlap Distress Ink to each of the books to make them look old and grungy.

I also used the Dress it up Halloween set, and used three of the little embellishments to decorate the covers of the tiny books.

I used old book pages inside the books to make them feel authentic and sewed in the signatures to each of the books. So, now they are real tiny books that can be open and read!

I added some of the ScrapBerry Witch Hat charms to the spines of each of the books so everyone knows just who they belong to!

I decided the books were not spooky enough so I added some "cobwebs" made with hot glue to each of the books, now they look old and like they have been sitting on someone's shelf for a very long time.

The finishing touch was some Imagine Crafts Sheer Shimmer Spray, this gave my books the magical sparkle they needed.

I hope you have enjoyed my wee magical books today, thanks for stopping by!

Esther

We just love how Esther paired stamped leaves from the Stampendous Glasswork Leaves stamp set and the Bo Bunny paper pack to create this fall inspired card.

Annie

Annie's card is spook-tacular with the combination of the Stampendous Fall Season stamp set and Lawn Fawn Knit Picky Fall Petitie paper pad.

EK's challenge card is so simple, yet so sweet with the use of the Carta Bella Fall Break paper pad, Waffle Flower Boo stamp set, and Doodle's Paper Playground Pumpkin Spice Sparkle Blend Sequin pack.
