Storytime - School photo layout

Hello Everyone,

I have been scrapbooking again!

I have used the lovely papers from the 'Storytime' paper pack.  This pack is so lovely its a good job there are two sheets of each paper or I would never of been able to cut into it!

One of the sheets has this great report card on it.

I kept the embellishments very simple just using these cute 'vowels' and 'numbers' cards from the same sheet as the report card.

I used Always Artichoke ink to ink all the edges and curled them for a bit of dimension.

Sunshine and Sprinkles LO 2 - Oh, Hello Buttons

Hi Everyone

I have another simple scrapbook page to share today.  These a photos taken this week of my little girl having her first taste of milky bar buttons, she is not quite sure what to make of them :)

I used Rose Red Cardstock and teamed it up with the lovely spotty paper from the Sunshine and Sprinkles designer paper pack.

The photos fill up most of the page but I used the Oh, Hello stamp set for some accents and a bit of Pretty in pink stitched crossgrain ribbon.

Thank you for visiting today

Sunshine and Sprinkles Layout

Hi Everyone

I am not a very expert scrapbooker but I do a few layouts from time to time.

Last weekend my Daughter went to her friend's Birthday party, it was a lovely spring day with snow and gale force winds so I couldn't resist taking picture of her walking home, she looked so funny in her party dress, glittery face paints and wellies.  As for the balloon it was a miracle it made it home at all.

 

 My Layout is done on SU So Saffron Cardstock and I used papers from the Sunshine and Sprinkles designer series.

 

 I gave my Sizzlits Pinwheel die its first outing to embellish the page but otherwise left it fairly simple with just a small amount of journaling

Getting Inky, Very Inky

Hi Everyone

I have been busy decorating the cover of my new mixed media album.  The covers are canvas which is great to stamp on.

I stamped the 'delicate doilies' stamps in Crumb cake, pool party and island indigo ink to create a background on all the covers.

I also inked the edges and any spaces with crumb cake ink.

 Above is the inside and below shows the back cover.

 These are all the different stamps I used on this project, I love being able to combine different sets on one project.

 Materials Used:

First Edition Paper Pack

Stamps: Mixed Bunch, Swallowtail, Hearts a Flutter, Delicate Doilies and Postage Due

Punches: Postage Stamp, Blossom, Circle

Ribbon, buttons and Trinket

Some close ups of the details

Blossom Bunch from the Blossom Punch

 Hello Everyone

I was lucky to get a bit of craft time this morning and this is what I made.

I saw a similar thing on pintrest but it was smaller and was to hang, I wanted mine to look more like a bucket of spring flowers.

I used a polystyrene ball (bought from hobycraft for speed) and superglued this into the metal bucket.  I punched lots of flowers and pinned them to the ball filling any small gaps with the 'leaves' and small lengths of ribbon. Finished it off by decorating the bucket with two ribbons.

Products Used:

Stampin Up Blossom punch

Stampin Up Cardstock in Lucky Limeade

Stampin Up Papers from First Edition and Tea for Two

Stampin Up Ribbon Taffeta in So Saffon

Stampin Up Ribbon Crossgrain Stitched in Daffodil Delight

lots of pins

I hope you are enjoying my projects

Super Speedy Swallowtail note cards

Hi everyone

Last night I made a few very quick note cards using the lovely Swallowtail stamp from the Stampin Up seasonal catalogue.

I cut pieces of paper from the First edition paper series to fit the front of my card blanks and then stamped the Swallowtail onto them in the beautiful Pool Party Ink.

Very quick and simple but quite effective.

Thank you for looking
