Hi everyone, welcome to another round of Scrapbooking Global Blog Hop! This is my second time joining and I got confused with the challenge 😅 I thought the challenge is to create a layout using the sketch (below) with the theme Celebrate. I realised after finishing the layout that the challenge was just to create any layout as long as the theme is Celebrate! Since my layout is completed (and I don't have time to make another), i'm just going to roll with it!
Ok, here's the sketch (that I didn't need to follow 😅):
And here's my take on the sketch:
This was perfect opportunity to scrap the photos I took from our most recent celebration - Father's Day!
As this was a Father's Day layout, I used our more masculine range of paper called the World of Good DSP. I love this paper range, especially the gold foil. So I added my title using gold foil sheets too, and it matches the paper perfectly! 😍
I love this sketch because it challenged me to try a new technique - adding journaling by printing it out! It is a lot nicer and neater than my hand writing 😂
Thanks for stopping by! Please continue and hop to our next blog by the talented Cheryl Taylor!
Hi everyone welcome to Stampers Anonymous Team Blog Hop!
If you're following this blog hop, you would've just came from the lovely Meighan Wheller's page.
This month we have a Sketch Challenge.
My Dad's birthday is just around the corner, so I thought this is perfect opportunity to tick two things off my to do list!
This is what I came up with.
Ok, let me share my thought process with you. I started with every intention to follow the sketch as closely as possible. So that explains the matting and the circle placement. For the strip behind the circle, I decided to use leaves instead, however, two leaves weren't enough 😆! So I placed a few more leaves around the circle. Some were stamped and die-cut, some were die-cut directly from gold foil sheets (see my listing of materials/tools used below).
When it was time to put the sentiment on, I initially had it on the angle, just like the sketch, but then knowing my Dad who's a very neat and orderly man, I was worried that having the sentiment on an angle might annoy him a bit? LOL! Anyway, so I decided to just stick it down horizontally.
In the end, my card felt quite different to the sketch, but it's still lovely though, isn't it? 😊
Thanks for stopping by and please continue on the Blog Hop! Next we have the very talented Marelle Taylor, can't wait to see what she's came up with!
Here's a list of all the participants for this month's bloghop:
Have you ever experienced being in your Craft Zone? For me, it normally happens after I've made a card or a layout, and suddenly the creativity juice keeps on flowing. It's the total opposite of a creativity block where I spend a while day and struggle to create anything!
Anyway, I'm going to make the most out of my craft mojo right now. I made the following card for a very generous lady that I know. Not only is she generous, she has also been so supporting and encouraging in my craft journey.
The inspiration for this card actually came after I made these butterflies.
Aren't they just so pretty? I stamped them using the Butterfly Gala stamp set and punched them out using the Butterfly Duet punch (more detailed listing of products used below).
After I had butterflies 😆, everything else just kind of fell in place......and here's the end result.
I didn't go too over the top with embellishment because I wanted to keep this card simple, yet elegant.
After that I couldn't put down my duet butterfly punch, and I have another special person in my life that I needed to make a card for. This time it's for a very dear friend who is always there for me. Who listens to all my problems (bless her!) and shares laughter with me too.
Her favourite colour is blue, and she has expensive taste, hahaha! So I added some silver foil to the card 🤣
I also added some stamped leaves to make the silver foil pop more and to add more dimensions to the card.
Pearls are perfect for the butterflies, don't you think? 😊
Thank you for stopping by, I hope you've enjoyed reading this post and I also hope it'll inspire you to create something too!
Yeah my third video is up! Sorry this was a week late (I was aiming fortnightly), life got in the way!
This is a scrapbook layout of my little one when she turned 3 last year. The photo doesn't really have any particular colours that pop, making it great for any patterned paper of my choice. I decided to go with the Forever Greenery Designer Series Paper as the base and two of the circles. The paper for the brown circle is from In Good Taste Designer Series Paper. I cut these circles out using Layering circles dies.
I trimmed a white cardstock to 10" by 10", and stamped on it using Tasteful Touches Cling Stamp Set, around the corners and strategically stamping some images beside the photo.
Next, I used the Forever Fern bundle to create all the different leaves - some are stamped on off-cuts from the white cardstock using different green inkpads, and then die-cut out, and some are simply die-cut from different green cardstocks.
Hi all, welcome to this month's Scrapbooking Global Blog Hop! I hope you are having fun visiting all the blogs in the hop!
Our challenge this month is the Sketch below:
Here's my take on the sketch. This is my first time joining a Blog Hop, so I'm very excited and I think I didn't do too bad 😂 What do you think?
The photos I used for this layout was a New Year celebration dinner last year. I had to cover the photos because there were so many people it's too hard to get permission from all of them 😝
Here are the materials I used for this layout (clicking on the link will take you to my shop 😀):
