June Blog Hop Colour theme: Sapphire, Glacier & Whisper

Hi,

Welcome to the winter with June Blog Hop.  If you have come here from Kerry's great blog page, then you are on our fabulous Blog Hop for this month. Our theme is to use the colours Sapphire, Glacier and Whisper and create!!

I started with 2 blank pages and began to play. First I found a great background pattern that could be cut out on my circuit machine. Oh what fun, with the simple push of a few buttons.


 Background patter is in Glacier and the strip of dots with Sapphire. I used our Bonding Memories Pen to stick it down. This is the left side of the double page spread. 


On the right side I decided to do something different but connected to the left side. Used a smaller version of the background arrow and the strip of dots vertical rather than horizontal!  



Now for one of the fun parts adding the photos. I used the Whisper card stock to mount them on.



To help the photos stand out I used the sanding kit to bring a white edge to each of the photos! Photos are dated and waiting for my husband to journal! It is great to achieve another double page spread for our 2015 Family album. Did you know that our albums are on special this month? Buy one and get the second one for half price. What a wonderful bargin!




Now it is time to add a couple of titles. 


"capture the details" was cut on my circuit and I used the bonding memories to stick it down.


This title I used July Stamp Of the Month for the beginning letters and then wrote the rest of the title with a black pen. Oh how wonderful it is to be a consultant as you have the treat of seeing, and using some of our products before anyone else! If you want a job that is like Christmas every day then let me know! If you want to see the other Stamp of the Months feel free to take a look at our latest ideas book!



Now to add a few embellishments to make the pages pop! I used some of the No Worries embellishments and some of the pieces from my base cut outs.



 And now for the final double page spread. I do hope you like them.





Feel free to visit my website if you would like to have a look at or purchase any of the new products now available!  Now click on over to Alison's page and see what she has come up with for these colours!

Happy Scrapping,

Cindy

Hello and Happy New Year. I do hope you all had a lovely Christmas and New Year! Mine was very busy but great to see some of our family. Have you seen the special for January? Well there was a rather wet day so I spent it in the Studio creating my letter! It is not a note kind of letter but an alphabet letter. They are only available for January and while stocks last! I choose the letter "C" and I had lots of fun with it! First step is to workout which letters I need to punch out. So as I looked at the one pictured in the instructions I marked off the appropriate flowers. Now the fun is beginning as I punched the flowers out and put them together with liquid glass. When they had dried I then shaped them with my fingers and with the quilling tool. Next I attached the white and bronze sheet to the cardboard. Placed the flowers where I thought they would go and stuck them down with liquid glass. It was so easy to put it all together following the pictu

July Stamp Of The Month

Welcome to our Blog Hop for July, with this months Stamp Of The Month as the theme. If you have come here from Kerry's Page then you are on the right Blog Hop. Here is the Stamp of the Month for July: Storybook Alphabet It is an amazing little alphabet, that can be used in many different ways.  Last month I showed it in my heading, using it for the first letters of the words! This time I have used it in my title, but have used it for all of the letters of the title. As I am notorious at stamping with out checking what ink is still on my block, I used a 1" square block for each of the letters, except for the letter "R" as it needed a 2" square block!  This really added a quick reference to my pages.  I did the apostrophe by hand and just added dots to it to make it match the rest of the letters.  Did you know that you can only purchase the Stamp Of The Month in the month that it is available for?  So this Storybook Alphabet is

August Blog Hop: Annual Inspirations Project Welcome to August Blog Hop, where we have all chosen projects for our new Annual Inspirations book to replicate for you to see! If you have arrived here from Kerry's page then you are on the right track! Wow have you had a chance to see our new Annual Inspirations Book? Ohh so many lovely items, it was hard to choose which project to do! I do gravitate towards the Enchantment colours. So I decided to try the Enchantment Fundamental layout on page 43.  The projects in the Annual Inspirations are a great idea to bounce off from. You can put your own spin on them and take it where your photos go! So to keep it simple I cut the peacock dots at 6" and the peacock arrows at 3". Ruby and Fern I cut at 3/8". This means I have enough to do the second page at a later time! I used EZ Dots (soon to be gone, if you love them then stock up on them) for larger pieces of card stock, and Bonding Memories for the thin pieces.
