Scrap Lift Yourself! | These Days Collection | Rachel Lowe

Hello CVS crafty friends! Have you ever scrap lifted yourself? I have done it in the past when I am in a mojo rut, it’s a great way to get your creating going again, or perhaps its just a layout that you designed and loved so why not, do it again! Today I am sharing a layout created using These Days collection, which is a scrap lift of a layout I created using Sunkisssed collection.

Here is the original layout:

And here is my second take! I love the fact that no two layouts ever look the same when you scrap lift, they still look original. I chose a family theme for this layout. So my patterned papers stood out I used the Pretty Posies paper using the wood grain side. I gave a light splatter of white paint. I then used Take Flight, Home Grown and Family Ties papers to create my horizontal torn strips.

I chose a butterfly cut file for this layout to replace the origami heart. I cut it three time and only glued the centre to give it a 3D effect. I used Neighbourhood and The Good Life papers. I then added my 6×4 inch landscape photo matting it and adding with foam tape to add dimension.

My next step was to add flowers and florals like I did in my original layout. I used the Floral Ephemera pack and added to each side of my photo. I layered some on top of each other so they didn’t appear ‘flat’. I created an embellishment cluster to the right of my photo using the Die Cut Ephemera, Puffy Stickers and Wood Epoxy Buttons.

I created my title using phrases from the die cut pack and finished off with another wood epoxy button.

Lastly I added word stickers from the Accessory Stickers to create a sub title around the wing of the butterfly.

I love how my scrap lift layout turned out, I hope it inspires you to give it a try too!

Thank you for stopping by today and see you again later in the month!
