Another scrapbook page inspired by the Campbell River Scrap and Chat sketch for this week.

This time I used up my off cuts from my last page and used the idea of banners with 2 photos to complete this page.  I made use of my stamps and punches this time.

Campbell River Scrap and Chat Feb challenge

I really enjoyed this sketch.  It was simple and quick and used polaroids which I love to use! There is still a lot of space left for journalling our spring adventures.

Blender pens and markers are fun

Made these cards very quickly for a B-Day party.  The grass is super easy and fun to do using a "blender pen" and olive green marker.

The cost will be $15 for 5 cards.
Everyone who attends the card class will receive free shipping on Stampin 'Up purchases made that day.

An additional class will be held Sunday March 1 (1pm-5pm) if there is enough interest.

Next Stampin'Up goal...

I had a Stampin'Up party yesterday.  I met a lot of great people and had a lot of fun sharing my card designs.  I look forward to sharing some new ideas very soon!  I hope I can inspire you to keep on crafting.

Layout created using Campbell River Scrap n'Chat sketch

I choose to do a one page layout instead of a two page layout because I just do not create two page layouts very often.  I generally combine a one page layout with a project life page when I have multiple photos of an event.  I have been printing off 3x2 photo's lately, and all the boxes in this sketch brought to mind the idea of a photo strip.  So my layout was composed to hold eight 2x3 photos.

The layout was created using Stampin 'Up card stock and designer paper.  Embellishments are from The Bow punch from Stampin'Up and the paper arrow and buttons all come from one Stampin'Up die and even the brown photo strip is from a Stampin'Up die.  I cut the title using my Slice machine.

Thanks for the inspiration Scrap n' Chat.

Cards customers will be making on Monday.

I am excited to share these cards with my customers on Monday.  Sorry for the poor photography on my site right now…my tripod broke and I don't have the most steady hand.





Quick Cards with some of my new StampinUp Stamps

Here are some very quick cards I made with my newest StampinUp Stamp sets.  Two of the StampSets were FREE FREE FREE from the Sale-A-Bration promotion.  Others you can earn just by hosting a party.








Cute gift cards with one sheet of StampinUp Cardstock

I used one sheet of StampinUp Cardstock, StampinUp "Something to Say" Stamp Set, and the free Sale-A-Bration"You Brighten my Day" stamp set, and the some washi tape from my stash.

Something you do with a StampinUp paper pack and Cardstock

I was impressed how easy it was to make use of all 12 sheets of paper from my StampinUp paper pack when I combined it with Cardstock, a StampinUp sticker pack, StampinUp Stamps and punches, my Slice machine for titles, and some odds and ends buttons and flairs from my stash.

Here are the starting points for 15 layouts.  I can't wait to get together with my girlfriends to add pictures and final touches!
