May 2014 scrapbook pages

 

 

 

Hello, welcome to my blog.  My share today is my May scrapbook pages for my monthly class.  I had really been wanting to do a sunburst on scrapbook pages ever since I saw it on a card.  I am really pleased with how my pages turned out.  To make the sunburst, I cut my dsp into strips that are 1 1/2" by 6" and then I cut them diagonally the long ways.  My points did not match in the middle or at the end on the single page so I made some flowers to cover it up.  Simple but fun pages.

Team Challenge Inchie Frame

Hello welcome to my blog.  My share today is our Team Challenge for April.  We did inchie squares and then swapped them. We each made 20 of the same square and we got 20 different ones in return.  Our color combo that we had to stay in was so saffron, pink pirouette, pool party, pear pizzaz and whisper white and the theme was spring.  I can hardly wait for the next one we do.  My frame is 10 x 10.  My first layer is pool party and then I mounted all of my inchies on basic black.  Love how it turned out.

TSSC305 Petal Parade

 

I love sketches and happened upon this sketch from Technostamper

For my take on the sketch I started out with basic black for my base.  I used the largest square framelit to cut off a strip along the bottom.  Then on the inside of the card a put a strip of Sweet Sorbet dsp from Sale A Bration.  I chose a different pattern from the same pack and added a 2" strip to the front of the card.  My banner was cut using the 3rd Banner Framelit (counting from the largest to smallest).  My stamp set is Petal Parade, also from Sale A Bration.  I stamped the chevrons right on the banner and then stamped 3 of the flowers and hand cut them.  The ink I used are Pool Party and Crisp Cantaloupe.  My Hello greeting came from the A Dozen Thoughts stamped in stazon.  A strip of Summer Starfruit cut with the Adorning Accents Edgelits and then embossed with the Adorning Accents matching folder.  Some Crisp Cantaloupe ribbon and large pearls finish off my card.

Thanks for stopping by, I appreciate it.

 

February Pages 2014

 

These are the pages I did for my February class.  I tried to keep with the Valentine theme and really like how they turned out.  I especially like my little love bug.  My background pages are Rose Red.  I then used Smoky Slate and black for my photo mounting placements.  I added a strip of silver velum across the top and thought the little hearts went perfect with the theme. 

 

Here are all of the items used to build the little bug.

Minion Card

 

My grandson, Tanner, turned three on the 10th and this is the card I made him.  His party theme was Minions so I thought I would stay with the theme.  The cardstock colors that I used are Pacific Point, Whisper White, Daffodil Delight, Basic Black, Soft Suede.  The greeting is from Sassy Salutations.  I started with the Minion's body in daffodil delight and just cut a rectangle.  I rounded the corners and then cut another rectangle in pacific point.  I used a circle punch to curve around his neck and then I used the ticket builder punch to cut the arm holes.  From the daffodil delight, I cut out his mouth so that I could add teeth and tongue to the back side.  I made his eyes and glasses with the circle punches and a hand held punch for the blacks of the eyes.  Some scrap black cardstock added as hair finishes off this cute little guy.

Valentine Mailbox

 

Hello, my share today is a cute little mailbox made with the mini milk carton die.  I don't remember where I saw this but my husband is a mailman so I just had to make one of these for him.  All you do is cut out your milk carton and assemble like normal except you do not glue the entire top closed.  You will want to cut a little flap that can be opened and closed and with it open, glue the rest of the top closed.  For my handle I just used some of the silver ribbon and attached it to the flap with mini brads.  To make the milk carton look like a mailbox, I just put a strip of Night of Navy around the sides.  To make the legs I used the mini curly label punch.  I used the stamp sets Tape It and Love you to the Moon.

 

Thanks for stopping by.

Valentine

 

I gave this card to my husband on Valentine's Day.  I wasn't sure I would use the new Hardwood stamp that much, but I really love what it adds to cards.  My base is crumb cake with the second layer being cherry cobbler.  The hardwood was stamped on crumb cake with early espresso ink.  I used the Hearts framelits to cut out the heart.  I stamped a smaller piece of crumb cake with the hardwood as well so that I could pop up the top layer and still have my "wood" underneath.  A little sponging around the heart on both layers just makes it really pop.  I used a template cut with the smallest heart from the hearts framelits to color the little heart with cherry cobbler.  I then added a few lines with the white gel pen.  My greeting came from Love you to the Moon found in the Celebrate the Everyday catalog and is stamped in versamark and embossed with white powder.  A little of the Natural Chevron Ribbon finishes this card off.
