 Hei, allan, yw Simon McStrupp. Thank you for watching my tutorial today. This week's scrapbook layout is one of me and my grandfather. This is me about two or three years old. It had been a family barbecue. Apparently I'd been running around like a lunatic and I'd fallen over and grazed my nose. So I think granddad was giving me some some attention there and sharing his beer as you do when you're that age. So it was a lovely picture and I just knew I had to scrapbook it. So rwy'n gweithio ac yn ddweud o'r pêpa o Rosie studio. Rwy'n gweithio'n iawn gwych, bwysig, gyda gwych gwydig fflexol o'r llwyll. Mae'n bwysig yn gwych. Dyma'r plan yn ymdweud yw'r pêpa o'r hart. Yn wahanol, rhyw ystod, rhaid. Rhaid o'r pêpa o'r rhaid. Ac rhyw un i'n gweithio. Rhaid o'r pêpa o'r pêpa, rhaid o'r pêpa. Rhaid o'n gweithio 10 x 10. Rhaid o'r pêpa o'r 12. ac rhan o'r rhaedd iawn i'r rhaedd. Rhaedd rhaedd yna'r ystafell sydd wedi ymballod o'r rhaedd. O'ch rhaedd arall, mae'n gallu gweld o'r rhaedd. Rhaedd yr hyn, rhaedd yn cael myfyrdd ymlaen i rhaedd ac rhaedd o'r rhaedd, a rhaedd eu gwneud ychydig i'r bwysig ac rhaedd i'r bwysig i'r bwysig. Rhaedd o'r rhaedd o'r hyffordd o'r ddweud o'r hyffordd. ac y gallwn yn cyfeirio'r dda wedi bod yn gallu'n go i ddweud ar y gwaith yma. Ond rydych chi'n gweithio'n ddweud i'r ddweud ac rwy'n go i ddweud eich copa ar y boson. Felly gallwn i'n gweithio yw copa. Rwy'n gallu'n gweithio bod cwpio. Rwy'n gweithio bod cwpio, ac yna'n golygu'n golygu'n golygu'n golygu'n golygu, ond yn ddweud yn gweithiodd, ond rydyn ni'n dwygynnu'n dweud hynny. Felly, fel rydyn ni'n gael, mae'n gael eich porffodd iawn yn ynnud bod yn ystod. Rydyn ni'n ddych chi'n gallu'n ddwych i'r ddweud o'r byd. Felly, rydyn ni'n ddweud o'r byd o'r byd. Ond rydyn ni'n ddweud i'r ddweud i'r ddweud i'r ffiyllwch ac rydyn ni'n ddweud hynny'n gwybod hynny i'r ffordd. Gwyddon yw'r hyffordd. Felly yw wych chi'n cael ei gael, nol o'r rhan sy'n cael cofri beth mae'r gwrdd yn ei ffordd. Mae'r rhan sy'n cael rhan sy'n cael rhan. Dwi'n meddwl, mae'r ffordd yw'r ysgol gyd, mae'r eich môn ar y pad a'r ddysgu'r llai dw i'r ysgol. Dwi ddim yn ddod o'r gyflwyffol ac ddim yn ddod o'r dyfodd. Mae'r rhain yn gwneud eich bod hynny'n ddiddordeb is very similar to the pages in my scrapbook it's craft card in my scrapbook and it would just look lost against it so by doing this frame it just helps lift it from that paper so I'm just brushing off some excess I've gone over a little bit further there you can just see I'm just going to go along there and just kind of even it out a little bit there and then get that all heat set make sure you do the front and the back so you can see here I'm just setting the back just so you don't get any kind of loose bits on the back of your page and there you can see I've got this nice nice pattern coming along so there's that strip for the middle I'm just folding over the edges and it's it was it was kind of like a graduated kind of paper so it was light on one side and then dark on the other so this darker strip actually does show up better once it's laid over the top there so I'm just trimming off a little bit of that picture you can see the idea for the the colour palette actually came from the picture the background I think must have been very hot summer because the grass had all dried out so I'm just going to mat this one on white cardstock as I always do and then I will be distressing that because I don't want any kind of real kind of blunt edges raw edges sorry and any crisp white I don't want that look in this layout I'm also using craft card to mat on top again and then I'm going to bring in my vintage photo distressed photo vintage photo oxide ink and I'm just going to go around here and you can see that I'm just kind of just roughing them up a bit making them look a bit dirty a bit aged a bit vintage a bit antique anything you want to call it I'm distressing the edges there and I do this for everything so I'm doing my craft card frame there and then I'm going to go and do every single heart so I painstakingly go through them all and I'm starting off with this doily heart which is kind of the main the main one I would say and it does make quite a difference I mean you can see now the kind of colour against the craft card and just going around all the edges there as well and by doing this it just lifted it it just looked quite flat if you just put a plain craft of playing the craft card on top of craft card it doesn't look very good so by doing this it just gives them a little bit of a silhouette a little bit of a shadow and it really does make a difference so you can see there how different they all look and then I just get all those tiny ones at a minute and I just pile them all together on that card and just dab over with my doorbell much much quicker so I'm also distressing the edges of this strip although you don't see it too well in the video it does really come out and it just gets rid of that white edge so now I'm running that strip through the middle and I'm going to start layering everything up now I never stick anything down okay so even at this point nothing is stuck down I just want to start positioning things again I spend ages deciding where my photo is going to go but I do opt for that kind of slightly down towards the left but everything is going to kind of sit within that central strip and then I'm just starting to layer up where I want all these hearts to go so I'm putting some of the paper over the craft card the larger ones on top of the the smaller ones on top of the large ones and so on so you can see I've got it all kind of where I think I'm just taking a picture of it just so I can kind of then you know revert back to that now I realise that that strip is actually too thick so I decided to go down about one and a quarter inch again I'm just going to distress the edge there it was kind of you were losing some of those embossed hearts that I've done although you don't see a lot of them it's just meant to be little kind of areas of interest that will just kind of little bit shine you know show through so the intention isn't for you to see all of it just parts of it so now I'm going to stick that one down right through the middle of that page and the reason really is just so I don't have any waste I like to especially when I'm doing 10 by 10 layout if I'm always cutting down the paper then it's good to use that paper back in your layout so I'm just sticking this photo down there with some foam adhesive again I always like to lift my photos up again I'm not sticking it yet because the photo is going to be the last thing to be stuck down so what I'm doing now is I'm going to stick down all those hearts and some of them go directly on to the paper and some are on foam some are again stuck then directly down so there's lots of different levels lots of dimension to this which again you'll see in the photos at the end it's probably harder for you to see at the minute but you know yeah some are on the foam and some aren't so it's very erratic there's no kind of flow or what's the word I'm looking for nothing's kind of equal it's just really random so you can see there I'm just finishing up and get the last couple of bits down there and I do one little rogue one over towards the left hand side there and it just starts to really come together now I'm really pleased with it because these kind of things are just in my head and then I I never know how they're going to turn out so um I remembered I had this stamp set from one of my UK magazine subscriptions and it's the apple blossom is the brand and they've got these two pints of beer kind of clinking together and I just saw I know it's me as a baby but I'm there with having a beer with my granddad as you do so I thought I'm going to bring in these little beers so I'm just inking them with the same vintage photo oxide ink just again I don't want the black kind of frame and then I'm just bringing in my watercolour pencils there although I don't use the water I just use the the plain pencil just to colour them in um I'm using more of a mustardy kind of yellow and do a little bit of blending there just so that I can get them just looking as real as possible these ones come with a matching dye as well which is great and uh so I'm just going to get that run through but obviously these give you a white border so again in a minute you'll see that I end up distressing that because it was two whites and obviously I've started to kind of dirty everything up and try and keep it all within those browns so now I'll just bring in again and just go around those edges just to keep everything kind of matching these are great really really fun it's the first time I've used them like I said I've been recently sorting out all my stamps and I found a lot that I forgot about so I'm trying to use them now so I'm just playing around see where I want to position that and then I need to do my title so for this one I'm using these craft card letters and I'm going to do happy hour again it's a really fun play on words it is a happy hour you know that was a nice moment mum said like you know it was a it was a family barbecue it was a good day and it's just nice and I just thought that it's a good play on words um I want to say these are from hobby craft but I think they might have been from the range I could be wrong but there you go you can see there so I've just done happy hour so now I'm bringing in some of my rosie studio words these match the papers so I'm using cherish at the top there on the photo then I've got that one there is happy little moments and they're just uh going to go over them with glue because they do peel off especially that one that's going on that photo and then the one at the top there is smile so just nice appropriate words I thought they worked really really well and then I bring in this gold one which says remember and I just thought that was really nice it's one of my favorite pictures of my grandad who is no longer with me so it's just a nice one that I've been wanting to scrapbook for a long time so I'm bringing in the glossy accents now and I actually go over the whole of the happy hour and also the foam on the beer and it really transformed it it made those letters pop and it just they really lifted and I just thought it looked brilliant next I'm doing a little cheers so I've just got my stamping up alphabet letters and just on the left there I'm just going to stamp cheers again just near the beer I just thought that was quite good and then because I've got that yellow all on its own in the beer I've brought in this mustard nuvo drops and it just worked really well to just kind of complement it just those little pockets little bursts of yellow and it really did finish off the layout perfectly and this has become one of my favorite layouts I've thoroughly enjoyed this one and it has come together so well by just sticking with you know very very few colours and you can see there it just looks brilliant and that this the happy hour and with the new with the glossy accent sorry I think it's just turned out so so well and I'm super pleased that this photo has been given such a lovely layout so there you go I hope I've inspired you with a more masculine layout this week it was really
