Magic of Oz Layouts From Around the Globe.
Hello Beautiful Crafters!
Happy Wednesday and thank you for taking some time out of your day to pay us a visit! We have more glorious crafts from our design team to share with you today. We're featuring three phenomenal layouts that highlight our new Magic of Oz collection. All three of these layouts were created by some of our international design team members: Hilde Janbroers, Jane Tregenza and Melanie Forbes. You are going to love these wonderfully whimsical creations! This first lovely LO is called "Family" and was made by Hilde Janbroers. Get ready to be captivated by craftiness!
"I love to work with white cardstock so the Magic of Oz images will pop out of the page. I used a piece of the paper 'Journey to Oz' to place in the middle of the page. On top of that I added 2 pieces of another sheet. After adding the photo I started to add all the embellishments like flowers and chipboard. I cut out some images to add to the page as well. Some sprays of glimmermist as a final touch. " -Hilde Janbroers

This next marvlous LO was made by the amazing Jane Tregenza. Jane's stunning crafting style is in full bloom in this wickedly clever LO. Here is what she had to say about her inspiring creation!
"I used a clock from Imaginarium Deigns and a mini steampunk clock along with clock hands. I layered everything over the top. I love the Metal Flowers and Metal Buttons from Graphic 45 staples range. I love using them as a feature on my layouts. They always look so amazing on anything. I never have a photo in mind, but with five kids I always have the perfect photo. But this time, as soon as I saw the paper I knew exactly which photo I was going use. Although the photo is not the best. It is one of my daughter taken at her 18 birthday which was a fancy dress. She made her costume including the wings! The title is another one from Imaginarium deigns. I added a number disk from Maya road to finish it off. Thanks for looking" -Jane Tregenza
Next we have a super sweet and fun LO by Melanie Forbes. This LO is so enchanting and shows some amazing uses for out Metal Staples! Look at those wonderful Metal Flowers, Metal Buttons and Ornate Metal Door Plate and Knob Staples! They look absolutely spectacular in this gorgeous LO. Plus, you've got to love that adorable central photo. So cute!
We hope you all enjoyed today's crafts! Huge thanks to Hilde Janbroers, Jane Tregenza and Melanie Fobes for their brilliant work today. We are so lucky to have their amazing talents on our design team! We hope you will all join us tomorrow. We have a super special blog planned so we hope you will stop by and see us!
