Projects Using... First Edition Grand Plans!

Hi all,


Here are 5 projects using the First Edition 'Grand Plans' papers from Trimcraft. There are instructions on how to make them below each picture.

On this first layout, the picture is of Nathan and I with our lovely friend Sam who paid us a visit. Sadly I was feeling bad that day, I had heatstroke! Doh! You can see I look a bit peaky. Didn't help that they had dragged me into the local gaming store...

1. Print your photo and mount several times onto patterned paper. Add some 3D foam to the back.
2. Fussy cut paper planes and arrange around the photo on a 12x12" sheet of kraft cardstock.
3. When you are happy with the arrangement, draw trails from each plane. Make sure you can see the lines.
4. Stitch through the lines. 
5. Stick the planes down, along with your photo and other embellishments.

1. Print your photo at 3x4" and stick to a piece of blue cardstock. 
2. Die cut a large tag and stick the photo to it, adding a piece of washi tape above it. Add a small piece of twine through the hole in the tag. 
3. Cut four 3" squares of patterned paper, distress the edges and add a doodled border to each one. Arrange on an 8x8" page and stick down.
4. Add a title.
5. Add the large tag to the page and finish with a die cut shape.

1. Cut a 14x7cm piece of patterned paper and a 13x7cm piece. Arrange onto a 6x6" card blank.
2. Cut a strip of blue cardstock and place between the two pieces of paper. Stick everything down.
3. Fussy cut three bottles and stick on the bottom right of the card.
4. Die cut a sentiment from blue cardstock and stick to a die cut doily. Stick to the card.

1. Cut two diagonal pieces from patterned paper by measuring 5cm up one side of a 12x12 piece and 10cm up the other and then join the points together. 
2. Cut two strips from blue cardstock and stick under the diagonal pieces.
3. Stick both pieces to a 12x12" sheet of patterned paper. 
4. Print your photo at 3x4" and layer. Stick on the page at the same angle as the diagonals. 
5. Add the title at the same angle.
6. Journal onto a tag and fold a piece of blue cardstock around it to create a little pocket. 
7. Add a piece of ribbon to the tag.
8. Cover the front of the pocket with patterned paper and stick down.
9. Finish with a doily.

Thanks for stopping by!
