Scrapbook Sketch<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

I’ve been pretty bad about doing the Stamp-A-Holics timed challenges lately – I’m sorry!\u00a0 I love doing these, I just don’t seem to have a lot of the “time” part lately!\u00a0 This week we have a scrapbook sketch challenge (and I came up with it using our MDS!).\u00a0 We are supposed to look at this sketch and then go and make a scrapbook page looking something like this within 30 minutes.<\/p>\n

Okay, ready or not, here I go!\u00a0 I’m ready to stamp!<\/p>\n

Delightful Decorations & Tags til Christmas<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

The first order of business is some stamping.\u00a0 (Do you see the purple ornament – that was an oops!\u00a0 That’s what happens when you leave an uncleaned stamp lying on your desk overnight that was used with red ink and then the next morning you pick it up and ink it with blue ink.)<\/p>\n

I used stamps from the Delightful Decorations stamp set on page 35 of the Idea Book & Catalog and from the Tags til Christmas stamp set found on page 24 of the Occasions Mini Catalog. They are inked in Marina Mist and stamped onto Whisper White cardstock.<\/p>\n

From here on out I forgot to take pictures – I was busy working!\u00a0 I used some clear tinsel, basic pearls, Chocolate Chip, Organza ribbon, a star punch (retired), some Silver Glass Glitter, the Naturally Serif die and lots of dimensionals.<\/p>\n

How did I do on time?<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
Done!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

It looks like I hit it right on the dot – 30 minutes exactly!\u00a0 Whew!\u00a0 Did I mention that my littlest came down while I was stamping to\u00a0 have me put his Spiderman costume on?\u00a0 Mommy stripped that costume on him faster than ever before!<\/p>\n

Thank you for visiting today!\u00a0 I hope you’ll take a minute to leave a comment.\u00a0 Oh, what, you mean you actually want to see the finished project?\u00a0 Oh, well, I guess I can do that!<\/p>\n

Christmas Scrapbook Page<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Here it is!\u00a0 I’m very please with it other than the fact that the tree trunk is a little wide for the tree. . . .\u00a0 What do you think?\u00a0 It has a nice cool, crisp, breezy feel to it I think!<\/p>\n

Ever since I first got the current Stampin’ Up! catalog I have wanted to make a scrapbook page with the same basic idea of the picture they show on page 35.\u00a0 I finally did!<\/p>\n

Naturally Serif decorative strip die<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

I like the word “family” under the photo.\u00a0 I cut the letters out in Marina Mist and adhered them onto the Marina Mist background using Stampin’ Dimensionals.\u00a0 It’s a really neat effect when you want it there but you don’t want a huge contrast in colors distracting from the rest of the page.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
Tags til Christmas<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

And here’s a close up of one of the ornaments.\u00a0 This one is from the Tags til Christmas stamp set.\u00a0 You’ve just gotta love that clear tinsel and those pearls!<\/p>\n

Three pictures later, I’m still very happy you came to visit me today and I still hope you will take a minute to leave a comment!\u00a0 If you have\u00a0 a few extra minutes, you may wish to see what the other Stamp-A-Holic<\/a> design team members did for the challenge – just follow the link I’ve provided!<\/p>\n

PS:\u00a0 this is my second post of the day.\u00a0 Be sure to check out my Northern Flurry Christmas Card<\/a> too!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
