SOME SCRAPPING!!!

Jenny Hayward

I realised I had a few scrap pages that I hadn’t shown you.  So in between projects I thought I would pop some of these on.  These pages are ones I have done at workshops over the last few months (or more!).  I am not a scrapper and I have a lot to learn.  So, they are very simple pages but show how Stampin’ Up! products can be used on your pages.  I won’t go into detail with all these pages.

This one is going back a while ago.  This is a 12×12 page using ‘Always’.

It is a bit hard to see so here is a close up.

This is another old one  using ‘Great Friend’.  (Had to throw that one in Lynda! – It’s been a while since I have used this set).

This is a 6″x6″ page. It’s a bit hard to see but the base is Chocolate Chip.  I just realised this has lost it’s butterfly.  Mmmm, do I dust that set off to stamp another one?????

I have a few more pages to show you but  that will be for another day.  I must run now.  I have new toys to play with!!!!!  Oh, What fun! 

Happy Stamping 🙂

A BOY PAGE!

Jenny Hayward

Two posts in one day!  It’s not very often that happens.  While we were on the topic of scrapbooking I thought I would show you this page.  This is a 6×6 page I have been showing at my workshops lately.  I was inspired by a cover on a scrapbooking magazine I read a while ago.  Not sure which one now!

I have sponged around the edge of Baja Breeze cardstock in Whisper White ink.  I have cut a strip of paper from the SU Urban Garden DSP and adhered this onto a strip of Night of Navy card.  I added a mat of Kiwi Kiss and then punched out some stars using the small and large star punch.  I raised the small stars with dimensionals.  I used the Schoolbook Serif Alphabet stamps inked up in Night of Navy to stamp ‘boys’.  When you stamp the word  it run up on to the Kiwi Kiss mat and you get a little gap, so I filled it in with my Night of Navy marker.  It is a very simple page but I was pleased with how it turned out.  It is a quick page to show at a workshop. 

Do you need any of these supplies or any other products from Stampin’ Up!.  Let me know.  I can have them shipped anywhere in Australia.  Check out my VIS club page to see how you can benefit from purchases over $50.  Check back again soon as I will show you some other projects I have been working on.

A PAGE WITH STYLE – PART 2!

Jenny Hayward

Well, it’s taken me a few days to get back here.  Life is busy some times!  I have got lots to show you though.  Last post I showed you pages I created with a Heritage style and a Classic style.  The other 2 styles we looked at in my Scrapbooking 101 class were the Pop style and Shabby Chic.  Now, I have a lot to learn about scrapbooking and I have limited supplies, but these might give you some ideas.

First, to the Pop Style.  Just ignore the photo won’t you!  It was taken at my DH’s 40th birthday party 2 years ago.  Yes, it was a 50’s party.  The  Pop style of scrapbooking is fun and bright, generally following the trend.  It consists of simple text and simple words, fun shapes and symbols.

Cardstock: YoYo Yellow, Brilliant Blue, Only Orange.

Inks: Only Orange, Brilliant Blue markers.

Stamps: Simple Serif Mini Alphabet and Numbers.

Other: Large Star Punch, Small star punch, dimensionals

 

I love how the stars punch out using the small and large punch together.

The next page is showing the Shabby Chic style.  This is of my DD taken a few years ago.  This is her favourite Dress Up Dress, and she does look gorgeous!!

Shabby Chic style of scrapbooking is typically with torn and distressed papers, lots of embellishments and usually pastel colours.   I have sponged around the edge of Real Red card with the white ink pad and then used the white gel pen to create faux stitching.  I have torn the edges of the Raspberry Tart paper and the Kiwi Kiss card strip.  You can’t see the heart too well, but I have rock and rolled the heart in regal rose and then Rose Red.  I have added some Dazzling Diamonds with the 2-way glue pen.

Carlie Shabby Chic

Card: Real Red, Kiwi Kiss, Whisper White, Raspberry Tart DSP.

Inks: Regal Rose, Rose Red, Whisper White,

Stamps: Best Wishes and More.

Other: White Gel Pen, 2-way glue pen, Dazzling Diamonds, Dimensionals.

I think this page is beautiful anyway!!!  

I have more to show you later.  Till then – Happy Stamping!!!

A PAGE HAS STYLE!!!

Jenny Hayward

A couple of weeks ago I ran a Scrapbooking 101 class. I talked about
different scrapbooking styles. We looked at 4 styles: Heritage, Classic, Pop and Shabby Chic. I made a 6×6 page for each of the 4 styles. This first one shows the Heritage style. This style generally depicts historical or vintage memorabilia,and uses earthy tones.  Journalling is usually more detailed and personal.  I hadn’t put any journalling on this page because of the size of the page, but I don’t think it needs to say a lot either.

Mum and Dad H

This is my MIL and FIL taken a LITTLE while ago.  My FIL passed away 7 years ago so this is a very special photo.  I have clear embossed the ‘a’, and how can you go wrong with Baroque Motifs?  This set works really well with heritage pages.

Stamps: Baroque Motifs, Always

Inks: Sage Shadow, Choc Chip.    Markers:  Choc Chip, Creamy Caramel.

Card: Sage Shadow, Choc Chip, Very Vanilla.

Others: Clear EP, Heat Tool, Dimensionals. 1 1/4″ and 1 3/8″ circle Punch.

 

The next page shows a Classic Style.  This is typically very simple,  pages are uncluttered and generally with square or rectangular shapes.  Journalling is in a simple font and embellishments are used sparingly.

Classic Carlie

This is my DD taken at California Adventures when we went to the US last year.  I have kept it simple.  I have just realised I haven’t put dates on either of these photos, so I will have to amend that.

Stamps:  Simple Serif Mini Alphabet, Art by Design, short and Sweet.

Inks: Baja Breeze, Close to Cocoa.

Card: Urban Garden DSP, Close to Cocoa and Not Quite Navy, Whisper White, Dimensionals, 2 way glue pen, dazzling diamonds.

In the next couple of days I will show you my 2 other pages showing the other 2 styles – Pop and Shabby Chic.
