Hi, welcome back to the second video in this layout series for St. Yucalico in July. And this time I'm working with what I have left from the main kit plus the first add-on. So this is capture the flag and I'm just going to start adding to my stack. So I've got more lettering and all these papers. And then of course plenty of fun embellishments to mix with the main kit too. So I've got buttons and stamps, little tabs, pins and tags and envelopes and all goodies there. So I'm going to pull out some pictures and get started on this layout using the main kit plus add-on one that's captured the flag. To make a start on this page I'm going to be using the Lawn Fawn craft chevron print that was in the main kit. And then I'm going to use at least three of the pattern papers in the add-on. So these three October afternoon, two of them are at 9.5 and one is cakewalk. And so I want those three colors together on the craft. And I have two 4x6 landscape photos which I'm going to use as a 4x12 strip. And that's pretty much where I'm starting with this. But I want to do a little bit of misting on the background first. So I'm just trying to work out where things will be so that I get the mist in the right place. I've put the tags in the little glassine bags and I'm thinking that they will hold my journaling below the photos. So I want to make sure that I'm going to have enough room so that they can sit there and come just to the edge of the photo. So this is where everything is going to go. So those aren't adhered. They're just placed and I'm going to mark with a pencil where they go so that then I can do a little misting and I can get it all in the right place with a little bit of luck. I'm going to choose between three mist colors and I'm not quite sure which one's going to be best. So in between those marks where I know it's going to be covered up, I'm just going to add a few drops so that I can see what the colors look like. I apologize if I'm just making a huge mess with dried mist. Some of my mist I use in workshops a lot so they end up opening closed even more than they would at home and I don't always realize that the bottles are quite so messy. So I'm choosing between a green and orange and a brown. So I have leaf green and sunset for the orange and then I have an older brown that's pony which I don't think is available anymore but that's the only brown Mr. Huey I have. So I'm going to let these dry and see which color I like best for the misting. Having a look at the different shades I think I'm going to go with the dark brown because I'm going to use all those lighter colors and I like the idea of something that will anchor it with a little bit of a darker shade. And I know I want to go at the diagonal of the photos. The photos are going to be across here. There's going to be all the journaling pockets here. So I want a little bit of mist to show here and a little bit up here. So I'm not using a mask or anything just going to spray straight onto the page like that and I think so that I don't spray all over the kit. I'll just turn it around here. Oh okay. So from there I can carry on adding everything else. Going to cut some strips of these three pattern papers and start layering those up with the photographs. Cut a variety of strips of the three patterns that I wanted to use and start to look at how long I would need these strips to be. So the orange is the widest strip so it's going to go on the background and I've cut it a bit too long for where I wanted to go. So just line it up and let the extra go off the edge of the page and then I can trim that later. And then I want these two to go not quite straight, just a really small angle. Nothing big and dramatic. And then I can turn the page over and trim all those extra bits that go over the side and then just come back into that edge. And then I want to look at what's going to go in this corner because I think I'll want to and repeat those patterns but I'm not quite sure how because I want to use these glassing and bags with the tags in them. So thinking perhaps the best thing to do, well okay. My option here so that you're seeing what I'm thinking is that one option is to repeat this group with the orange than the red and the green on top and layer it over the top of the tags. But I have something else in mind with a bit more texture over the top of the tags so I'm thinking maybe then the better idea is to come in with make this a much narrower strip and add a small border that goes all the way across to 12 inches. Now I'm going to start here with the circle border stamp but I don't want my circles to end up on top of that orange. I want it to look like it went behind but I didn't think of it in time to do it before I put the paper down. So I'm just going to cover that orange paper with a post-it note and then using that same brown, Jenny, Boland, ink. And I know this stamp doesn't really fit on my block because I just always use the same size block but I can fit just enough of it so it should be okay. And then I'm going to repeat that same thing down here. I'm just taking a normal circle punch that's quite a small one that will go inside there and I'm just going to punch a little bit of the red because I want to bring in a bit more of the red to make it all match. And I'm not going to put one in every single dot just a few of them. Maybe add some brown around the edges of those. So I'll just add a few here and there and then I'm going to add a little stitch over the top and then that will be the embellishment done and I'll come back in to finish my journaling on those tags. But I just wanted to point out I really love the alphabet from the main kit, the little round alphabet from October afternoon, with that border stamp because it's a nice match in terms of size and proportion. So even once you're done with this kit and you are scrapping with other things, keep that border stamp in mind for other times that you're using round letter stickers because they look quite nice together. I think I'll do one more just tucked underneath there. And then I'm just going to pierce a few little holes to stitch through. So just one either side of the red circles. So for each little paper circle I'm punching four holes so that it will look like they are stitched onto the border. Here's this one all finished. So I've stitched in those little circles, I've added all my journaling to these tags and the journaling will still be easy to get out of the page protector because there's nothing or need on top. All of this detail, if I had to reach over that to get something out from the top of the page protector, it would probably come loose. So everything above here is purposely quite flat and secure. Those are stitched down, these are stuck fast and we're all good to go. So that is my layout with the main kit and the first add-on. So I have a few more left to go and we'll see how I get on. I will see you soon. Thanks for watching.
