Sycamore Street Layout

The Sycamore Street DSP papers by Stampin' Up came in the 2013 Saleabration Catalogue. I have used it a few times and seen some lovely cards made with it. This layout I have made for my next Scrapping workshop.

I didn't design it for a swimming-type layout, but after creating the sample page, went and found these photos that needed scrapping and BINGO - another layout scrapped! I'm not sure that the birdy now suits my page, being a Swimming Carnival layout, but I couldn't push it aside either, he's just too sweet.

Scrap Club # 6

This is the last Scrap Club for this series. I hope everyone is enjoying their Punches and Scrapping Kits and getting plenty of use out of them.

 

For this kit, I have chosen the Elegant Butterfly Punch and mixed it with some Neutrals, First Edition DSP and a couple of Subtle colours. I'm really happy with the layout I created, so I decided to use a different set of colours that came with the kit and came up with a 2nd layout.

 

Hope you like!

Stampin' Up! Colour Refresh!

I'm a little numb, excited and sorry but I have coped in the past when Stampin' Up! have had a colour refresh.

 

Bashful Blue, Certainly Celery and Pretty in Pink all going???? ARGHHH, but when I think about it, I've probably only used Pretty in Pink in recent times, so maybe it's not such a bad thing.

 

I am delighted that Pool Party and Island Indigo are staying. Bermuda Bay and Smoky Slate, I am looking forward to meeting you!

 

Anyway, if there are any retiring colours that you want before they go, they are only available until stocks last OR until the new catalogue comes out. This includes inks, ribbons, embellishments and paper. So, pop me an email if you would like to order any of these retiring colours before they go.

Easter Egg Hunt

If you know my type of scrapping, I love to cram as many photos into my double layouts as I can.  I love my photos to tell the story and this one is no exception. There are 8 photos on this one, all cropped, but I'm sure if I needed too, I probably could have cropped and crammed some more.

 

I have used Stampin' Up's 'Birds of a Feather' DSP: a cute little egg print along the bottom with some cute little chicks cut out and glued inbetween the fence die.

 

Guess what? Easter this year is already scrapped, including photos of their letters to the Easter Bunny, so I didn't have to use valuable space pasting it onto my page! Shame I still have last years to finish off. Must get on to that.

Happy Easter everyone!
