3 Layouts with 1 Free Cut File

Happy Easter! This is a very non-Easter related post. I have created THREE layouts from ONE fabulous cut file (that I only cut one time woohoo). Paper Issues has released a new Sketchy Saturday which always makes me giddy! I have also combined the sketch with my use of last week's free cut file. Double whammy!

LAYOUT NUMBER 1

Here is the fabulous sketch my layout was based from...

And here's the cut file that I only had to cut one time to get three very different layouts...

I had already cut the free cut file, which I of course used as a stencil! I misted through my 'stencil' using a variety of pink and gold Color Shines onto white cardstock. I cut a large circle from the white cardstock and used the negative for this layout.

You can see the misted stars throughout the white cardstock. I also had countless stars that came from the cut file, so I added a variety of sizes diagonally across the page.

The layout has photos of me, Lynn Kopas, and Jenn Shurkus at the Crop on the Cape! I had so much fun that weekend and have enjoyed scrapping our fun photos.

Supplies for Layout 1:

Silhouette Cameo Cutting Machine

My Mind's Eye - Collectable 12x12 paper

My Mind's Eye - Fancy That Mixed Bag Embellishments

Gossamer Glue - On my Desk

Heidi Swapp Color Shine - Gold, Coral, Blush, Mint, Mustard.

FujiFilm Instax Camera 

DCWV - Chick Chat stack (Michael's Stores exclusive)

LAYOUT NUMBER 2

For the second layout I also use both the Paper Issues sketch and the free cut file. I used the circle that was cut from layout number 1. 

I used a lot of distress ink on the circle to make the paper pink/purple to match the fun polka dot background. I also used more of the purple stars from my original cut file.

Yes, I scrapped another photo from Crop on the Cape! This time with Kathy Skou, myself, and Lynn Kopas (my roomies!). 

My favorite technique with my Dear Lizzy watercolor words... I painted the die cut 'smile' with my Peerless Watercolors in yellows and oranges. Once it is completely dry I added clear Wink of Stella. Once that's dry I apply a pretty thick coat of Glossy Accents. Annnnd once THAT completely dries... it looks awesome! Happy dance

LAYOUT NUMBER 3

I didn't think this layout would happen... I was planning on throwing away my original cut/stencil, since it was covered in failures of modeling paste and crackle paste, and a variety of ink sprays. But after a day of it drying and sitting... it kinda looked fantastic...

By the way, this is the patterned side of the page... I now have endless purple stars!

I turned my dirty stenciled page into this shiny gold gold and GOLD layout. Oh, and some gold stitching :)

You can kinda see some of the crackle paste on the stencil. And a variety of Color Shine mists.

If we're pals on Facebook this photo might look very familiar! This picture is of my dad, mom, hubby, myself, and the puppies in Maine.
