TWO FOR ONE WEDNESDAY

Today I have two projects to share with you because I had to work on some web hosting issues yesterday.

The first project features measuring as the key technique – simple I know. My tip is to use your grid paper to map out your layout.

The card also features the Weekend Adventure Scrapbooking Workshop Kit products.

I added a Basic White panel to the Cajun Craze card base.

Then I cut six 1 1/2″x 1 1/2″ Cajun Craze squares and six 1″x 1″ checkered Designer Series Paper squares. After adhering them together I positioned them on the card front.

I added three of the printed and precut elements, from the kit, to the card. They were all popped up using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

The bottom tag had lengths of the White Baker’s Twine looped through the hole and trimmed.

The card insert and back of the envelope had more of the DSP adhered to them.

Finally, I added some black dots from the Neutral Matte Dots to embellish the card front.

The second project today is another simple card using just the products from the kit.

This card features paper tearing as the key technique. The tip for paper tearing is to hold the paper firmly and tear the paper slowly toward you – this will reveal the white centre of the paper or card you are using.

I looped the White Baker’s Twine around my fingers several times before seucirng it to the base of the scalloped element.

Tomorrow I have a 3D card to share with you.

Until then, happy stamping and scrapbooking.

MEMORY KEEPING MONDAY IS ALWAYS FUN

This week I am featuring the Weekend Adventures Scrapbooking Workshop Kit and the coordinating Scrapbooking frmo Scratch products.

This kit has everything needed (excluding adhesives) to make the three two-page layouts (167315 $65AU).

You can also create even more layouts using these supplimentary products, including the Weekend Adventure Designer Series Paper & Sticker Sheet (167314 $29.95AU).

The Weekend Adventure Photopolymer Stamp Set has a fantastic variety of images and greetings for memorykeeping and card making (167318 $35).

You can also add the coordinating Weekend Adventure Two-Tone card to continue your creative endeavours (167324 $21).

I followed the layout instructions to recreate the kit designs.

The three layouts do not have any stamping on them but that is something you can add if you want to.

I love the brickwork look on the top page and all the layered elements on both pages.

This page also has many overlapping layers.

Then I created my own single page design using the more of the products on my desk.

This simple layout includes stamping across the central Old Olive strip. I would love to have the boot print as a stamp.

Tomorrow I have a technique card, and some tips, to share with you.

Until then, happy stamping and scrapbooking.

MEMORYKEEPING MONDAY IS NOW MY THING!

I’m back from my week away and looking forward to sharing some projects using the Birthday Fancy Kit ($44 166211).

The kit comes with everything you need to make these 12 individual cards.

My projects this week will use these kit items to make completely different projects.

I made a two page scrapbooking layout using some of the kit items but also added some other bits and pieces from my stash.

I started by adhering some strips of Cloud Cover and Lost Lagoon card on each of the pages.

The next step was to add a 6″x 4″ Basic White photo placecard onto a 1 1/2″x 4 1/2″ Cloud Cover matte.

The titles for each page were made by adding Adhesive Sheet to the back of the Lost Lagoon card and cutting the letters with the Playful Alphabet Dies.

The journalling panels were made using the notebook Just a Note dies. I used the coordinating stamp set to add the Lost Lagoon lines on the notebook die cut. The notebook pages were then adhered to another Cloud Cover panel.

I used the tab and paperclip dies to cut these shapes and add them to the notebook page.

Then I decorated both pages using the decorative elements from the kit.

I think these pages would be great for photos from a birthday gathering or a high tea. What photos would you add to these pages?

Tomorrow I have a card to share with you.

Until then, happy stamping and scrapbboking.
