WEEK 21 - DADDY SNUGGLES

Hi everyone!  In June, we celebrate Father's Day!  I wanted to take this opportunity to scrap some pictures of my husband with our daughters.  I found these pictures of my husband snuggling in bed with my girls when they were babies and my heart just instantly melted!  I love making pages about my girls with the same type of picture from when they were around the same age.  Just seeing the difference in their looks and personality is so cool to witness!  My girls are about 3.5 years apart, so seeing them at the same age is so interesting for me.  I challenge you to find two pictures that were taken at different times and put them together on a page.  Please check out my video to see the process.  Enjoy!






Supplies:


  • Patterned Paper: Glitz (background), Bo Bunny (blue dots), Crate Paper (font), Echo Park (cut apart)
  • Stickers: Crate Paper Notes & Things
  • Alphas: Thickers - Bree, Teresa Collins
  • Glassine bag


Thanks so much for stopping by today.  I'd love for you to head over to my blog as well: www.thescrapangel.blogspot.com

Have a great week!

WEEK 10 - CARD INSPIRATION

Recently I taught a card class and did a very simple design and one of the girls in the class suggested it would work lovely for a layout...So thanks Kat, I did just that !!
Always start in the centre, I cut 5 2" strips and made banners from 4 of them and left one full length.
Then with the bits you cut off, snip a few chevron shapes out of them
And adhere on the page leaving a gap between each one.
Next, I painted up a few stars and punched out three black circles from my Big Bite, to make a 'Mickey' logo on one of the stars, seeing as it was a holiday to Florida and the land of Mickey mouse.

Then I simply tied some twine around the photo and added some tickets to finish it off.
And there you have a very simple but effective layout.

Thanks for looking

GOING GREEN....

Green is a colour I love working with, especially if it's TEAL green LOL !!!! but this time I've really pushed myself and used sage green.
Start by painting and when I say painting I mean pop a bit of paint on a baby wipe and rub onto the cardstock.
Next spritz a bit of a water based spray onto your resist mat and using the lid, make some circles on the cardstock.

With the ink still wet, sprinkle on some Embossing powder, shake off and heat set

Next, using a piece of watercolour card, spritz with a lighter ink, then lay a stencil over and spritz with a darker ink. Dry with a heat tool.


Whilst I had the embossing powder out, I inked up a few flowers and a polaroid frame and embossed those.

Added a few splatters with the ink before sticking it all down.
Thanks for looking

The Daily Scrapbook Page - Layout 4


Yay! Day 4 of the Daily Scrapbook Page is here. This is a simple one to do with scraps -- all you need is a little bit of paper and some leftovers from another project! It wouldn't be July if we didn't throw a little Christmas in the mix, right? I still have not scrapped last Christmas--yikes, I know?! Well, if you are like me, then this is a great and easy layout to make, especially when Christmas themed paper might be scarce in your local scrapbook store at this time of year.



Here's how I made it:


Supplies:
  • Paper, Chipboard Stickers, Pom Trim, Stickers by Crate Paper
  • Label DieCut by Silhouette
  • Epoxies by Epiphany Crafts
  • Stickers by Bella Blvd
  • Twine by The Twinery
  • Punches by Fiskars
  • ColorBox Fluid Chalk Cat's Eye Ink pad
  • Background paper by Basic Grey
Please join us for another layout tomorrow!! Hope this inspires you to think of your scraps in a different way. No 12 x12 paper was harmed during the making of this layout....
