Sherlock III - A New Case... R.R.R.

Hello everyone & welcome,

Leanne here with you today to share a mixed media project that I have created using Sherlock III - A New Case cut & create ephemera pages and corrugated cardboard. Plus lots of bits & pieces from my craft stash.
I have R.R.R...recycled, re-purposed and reuse a coffee jar for my project. I love to recycle and coffee jars are a great way to store lace, ribbons, button & charms. This was lots of fun to create I hope you will give it a try.

Until next time.

Have a wonderful day & happy creating.

Hello everyone.

My latest page is one using Megs garden Sherlocks 111 cut and create. I wanted to create a page

which had a vintage farm feel. My handsome tom turkey is getting very impressive. Not something you see scrapped much. LOL

I love the leaf dies from Megs garden. They gave my page a country feel. Different clour green

cardstock makes more depth to the leaves. Half the page I used corragated paper which I was trying to represent corrigated tin.

Thanks for having a look at my page.

Fill their fields with laughter and scatter the sun on their day ~ Sherlock 111 A New Case

Hello Crafters,
Mary here with another layout using the Sherlock Holmes 111 A New Case Range, I have really enjoyed creating with this range.

Fill their Fields with laughter and scatter the Sun on their Day

This is a photo of my cousins both now in their eighties and nineties respectively . The young girl is also my Godmother.

I love this Die from Megs Store and I think it is perfect to continue the foliage in the photo . Behind my photo I have used the 4 x 12 strips of pp that come with the 12" PP and cut it in strips to mat the photo. I've added Dodo Vine and mesh ribbon beneath the die cuts and added jute twine and a little antique chess key .
For my sentiment "smile" from the cut and create sheet I highlighted the word with distress ink and stapled it along with Gold Skeleton Mesh webbing  to a ticket stub , also fussy cut from the cut and create sheet.
I hope I have inspired you to visit Megs Store and grab supplies to document your memories.
Thank You for calling by and Happy Creating

Sherlock III: a New Case - a seed from which tomorrow's happiness grows

I wanted to share with you a special layout of gorgeous niece, Esther.

I will be meeting this little one for the first time in August, even though we've talked over the internet it'll be much better to talk to her in real life.

When I saw this floral PP from the Sherlock III: a New Case collection, I knew I wanted to use it on something special.

Have a look and tell me what you think...

I backed my photo with a frame of green cardstock and then used a script above to tie in the PP with the photo.  I used cream mesh ribbon from Meg's Garden bundle of goodies across the background.

Using the Branch with Flowers die in a sage green cardstock I have framed the photo over the cream mesh ribbon.

  I have used the sage green rhinestones from the emerald sheet in the centre of some of the flowers from the die and in the corners for a touch of sparkle.

Hope you've enjoyed sharing in my creation with Meg's beautiful products, be sure to pop along to the website to look at her stunning collections.

Sherlock III: a New Case - Spread the word...

Sherlock III: a New Case -

Spread the Word

Hello everyone, popping in to the blog today to show you some cards I created with this beautiful collection!

All the cards are using the A4 pages, cutting out the most beautiful elements on the pages to make the centrepiece of each card.

This card uses the ink pot as the inspiration, I have added the pen nib and the sentiment "Spread the word" to create a writers theme.  The organza ribbon tied in beautifully with the vintage photo ink around the background paper.

This card has such a beautiful background paper that I left it so simple with a mink/taupe organza ribbon and the muted rhinestones from the diamond sheet, available at the website.

This card has such a detailed background paper that all I needed to do was ink the edges with vintage photo ink and add a sentiment.  I used "Time is a storyteller" because the paper looks like a collection of someone's belongings.  I added jute twine to the tag I created.

This card uses the top of one of the A4 collection papers and the postcard is a green text so I used a green backing card, embellishing the card with the green velour flower trim and an organza ribbon bow.  I have added sage green rhinestones from the emerald sheet.

All of these items can be purchased at Meg's Garden store.

Hope you have enjoyed seeing my card creations today and pop back again to see more wonderful creations of the design team here at Meg's Garden blog.

Take care

THE FRUIT PICKER ~ SHERLOCK 111 A NEW CASE

Hello !
Mary here to share another layout using the Sherlock 111 A New Case Range. I have really enjoyed creating with this range. I create this layout for a challenge where the Criteria was "Country" and this is what I created

The Fruit Picker

I enjoyed playing with texture paste and mists , stamps , die cuts , Mesh ribbon and jute with this layout . I've also added a hot air balloon charm and bee charm to the layout

I have also layered the strip filigree over the round filigree and added some Jute Twine and gold colour paste . The PP layered under my photo of one of my Mothers brothers is from the 4 x 12" strip that comes with the 12 x 12 papers. Under the papers I have used staples to adher the mesh and jute ribbons.
The die cut I have used is Megs Store .
Thank You for calling by .

SHERLOCK III - A NEW CASE - SPECIALITY CD CASE

Hello Bloggers,

Liz here with you today, showcasing Meg's Sherlock III - A New Case Collection.

I have created a CD Case to give as a gift.   I have left some spots to insert photos and or journalling.
These CD cases are a lot of fun to create and quite easy to make as well, which is a bonus. :)

 This is the back view.

 On thing to remember is not use to thick embellishments, so it lends itself to doing some fussy cutting from this Collection and there is an array to choose from.

 A bit of stamping on the kraft card to tie it altogether.

Have I mentioned that I do love to fussy cut these days, as I find it very relaxing and gives me time to think where I will place them too.

Well that is all for today and I hope you have enjoyed our little journey and if you would like to see more of this amazing Collection, you can find more HERE.

The Earth without Art is just Eh ~ Sherlock 111 A New Case

Hello fellow scrappers, Mary back to share another layout created with the Sherlock 111 A New Case Range.

The "Earth" without "Art" is just "Eh"

To create this layout I have layered my photo taken at the Sistene Chapel Rome in 2008 on Cardstock and coffee stained canvas and then layered images from the cut and create sheet around the photo.

I placed a little mesh ribbon peeking through under my photo and placed a round Filigree in the corner of the photo and then added raffia and string . I've used staples to adhere the dark brown rafia and also the natural  jute ribbon in the corner.
Thank You for calling by and I hope you take the time to pop over to Megs Store .
Happy Creating
