Scrapbook Pages for March

 

Hi stamping friend... I am so glad you have come for a visit.  This is my scrapbook club pages for March.  I used the  Newsprint Designer Series Paper (DSP) from Stampin' Up! as the actual pages.  The background is vanilla, so I used Very Vanilla cardstock for the borders.  I cut Real Red and Basic Black cardstock into 1 1/2" strips (2 red and 2 black).  I ran these strips through the Big Shot using the Tasteful Trims die.  I cut all 4 at one time.  It is really great that the Big Shot cuts so many layers at one time. (In quilting, I can cut 8 layers at once...a real time saver.)  I cut some black and red cardstock for my pictures and layered it on the DSP.  I added a 1/4' Basic Black grosgrain ribbon to the second page and added some of Stampin' Up!'s Basic Pearls.  They look so pretty.  My flower on page 1 is made in Real Red and the new Fun Flowers die for the Big Shot.I used all three flowers in the layer, misted lightly and crumpled up, then allowed to dry. The leaves were cut using the Island Floral die.  I folded the leaves in half lengthwise and ran them through the crimper.  WOW that looks good.  I put a dimensional in between each layer of flower to raise the petals.  The other flowers are made with the Paper Flowers in the current catalog.  I sponged them in Real Red and added buttons tied with linen thread using glue dots.  Happy Birthday is a die purchased online.  I hope you love the pages.  My clubs meet this week and we will be making these pages.  Why not join one of my scrapbook clubs and make some pages with us.  Also, I am having a Open Crop/Scrapbook day on March 18, 2011 in my Stamp Room.  Email me if you are interested and I will give you the details.  Blessings, Martha

 
Greetings from Zebulon, NC.  Thanks for coming to my page.  Today I have entered my scrapbook pages for my clubs this month.  Everyone had a great time making their pages.  I used Real Red card stock as my base.  I used the valentine paper from Stampin' Up!.  This designer paperhas two colors - red and pink.  There are several different designs on the double sided paper.  It is great for anytime of the year.  I had a Sizzlit Decorative Strip for the wording and placed some glitzy hearts  where appropriate.  You know me - I have so much stuff.  I found some doilies in my drawer and thought it would be cute on the pages.  I love hearts and lace.  I cute the hearts with the large heart punch and the embosslits from Stampin' Up!.  My picture taking is not so good and my computer skills are worse.  I hope you like the pages.

I will be starting a scrap/crop day on March 18, 2011.  You can crop from 10 AM to 9 PM.  Lunch and dinner, snacks will be furnished.   Email me to sign up. 

January Scrapbook Club pages

 
This is my scrapbook pages for my scrapbook club in January.  I used Bashful Blue 12 X 12 cardstock as the base.  I layered a 8 1/2 X 11 sheet of Crumb Cake to each page.  I punched out snowflakes with our snowflake punch in White.  The snowman is made  using our new 3" and 3 1/2" circle dies for the Big Shot and the 2 1/2" punch.  He is just adorable.  I cut a nose in pumpkin Pie and punched smaller circle for the eyes and mouth.  The snowman arms are made with the snowflake punch trimmed to make it look like arms.  I used the Whimsey wheel on the 2nd page rolled in Whisper White ink.  I used the Alphabet dies for the Big shot and Schoolbook Serif alphabet stamps for the words.  I hope you will make a page like this for yourself.  Thanks for visiting my blog today.  See you tomorrow.

May Scrapbook Pages

Here are my scrapbook pages for May.  My 12 X 12 background is Close to Cocoa and the mat for the pictures is Sage Shadow.  I used the Big Shot to punch some flowers out.  My border is wheeled with the Friendly Words wheel  and Blue ink. I also stamped  words from the All Holidays set.  All stamps are by Stampin' Up! - my favorite place to shop for stamps and accessories.  Thanks for looking.  Martha 

Spring/Easter Scrapbook Pages

 

Happy Easter...  Here are my scrapbook pages for April.  We will be making these pages in our scrapbook club.  Join us for a great girls night out. On these pages, I used the So Tweet chipboard from Stampin' Up!  I love the birdies in this packet.  I cut out the basket with the Baskets & Blooms die using the Big Shot.  I love using the Big Shot.  The eggs are punched from Tea Party Designer Series Paper.  I made the clouds with a cloud stencil.  On the second page, I used the new stamp set called Awash With Flowers.  It is a preview stamp set that can be purchased this month only.  We have 4 sets on sale this month.  Check out my website at http://stamp4martha.stampinup.net for details.
