Hi friends! Noreen here from OrganizedandCreativeMom.com to share an idea for using your scrapbook supplies to create a simple but lovely “Farmhouse Chic” décor piece! When I saw the new Homestead Collection from Creative Memories, I immediately noticed how much it reflects the ongoing “Farmhouse Chic” trend in home design and started to think about ways I could incorporate some parts of the collection into décor pieces for my own home. The Homestead Paper Pack is full of lovely botanical, plaid and textured papers that seem right at home in a cozy farmhouse, the coordinating Variety Mat Pack is full of wonderful sayings and quotes, and the intricate Laser-Cut Embellishments are thick and sturdy, and perfect for using on crafting projects! I have a little shelf in our powder room that I like to display seasonal and holiday décor on, so I wanted to create a homey little accent piece that would work there. I dug out a rustic picture frame picked up from a craft store on clearance a while back and sorted through the Variety Mat Cards and papers to find a combination that would work well in my space. From there it was a quick and easy task to cut a piece of patterned paper that would fit behind the opening of the mat included with the frame and adhere a Variety Mat Card to it. I created two embellishment clusters on opposite corners on the outside of the frame with the sturdy Laser-Cut Embellishments and adhered them with the Precision Point Adhesive Pen for a little extra security. Tip: You could also use Foam Squares for added dimension when layering your embellishments. Then I simply placed the frame on my shelf and changed out my floral arrangement for something a little more rustic and spring-like. The result is a cute and quick project that I can enjoy looking at every day! I hope you take a look at your scrappy supplies to see how you could use them in a homey décor piece to compliment your home! Enjoy!
