Hi everyone. Jacquie Hay here with my very first DT post for Craft on the Run.
We all love Mintay Papers but often they are so stunning that sometimes we don't know what to do with them, so the Craft on the Run Design Team is here to help with how you approach these collections so you have the confidence to use these papers.
As an added bonus and to encourage you to play along and give these tutorials a go we are doing a Mintay Giveaway...
Create a project based on any of the tutorials and share in the group/album telling us which tutorial you used and you go in the draw to win some stunning Mintay Papers.
Your creations must be based on the Design Team tutorials. And you must use any Mintay Collections
What do you think?
Want to give it a go?
If you are ready to share follow the link below and add your creation in the album.
I've been using the Mintay Lady Collection to make a scrapbook layout.
The first thing I like to do with a new collection is fussy-cut the cover sheet of the collection.
The next step is to choose papers for my layout. I chose a couple of background papers. I gutted the centre of the first one.
The next paper I chose, I trimmed to 11.5 inches square and stitched with pink embroidery thread around the edge.
The next step is to attach it to some pale pink cardstock, which I trimmed to 11.75 inches square. I then attached the 3 layers together.
The next step was to make a mat for my photo: I cut a piece of pale pink cardstock and used a border punch to create a decorative edge.
I then attached my photo to the centre of the layout.
The next step is to add some embellishments - luckily, I had fussy-cut the cover sheet previously 😀
The next step was to add them to the layout using foam tape.
I also added a chipboard title and frame from Uniquely Creative's Tranquility Laser Cut Collection, and Uniquely Creative's White Flowers.
This photo below is my finished layout.
Here are some close-ups so you can get a better idea of the textures and layers.

Stay tuned for more tutorials throughout the month, and don't forget to try a tutorial and share with us to have a chance to win some Mintay goodies for yourself!
Till next time, have a creative day - Jacquie.
Just gorgeous. You have done a great job and Welcome to the Team!!
