Seven Days of Scrapbooking--Day 7!!

/

Hey I did it! I shared 7 scrapbook pages in a row! YAY! I hope you have enjoyed following along and seeing what everyone has created using the #sevendaysofscrapbooking!

My last page features two of my kids (my younger two who are 19 months apart) back in the good ole days I like to say. When they were besties! Now they are at the age of constant disagreeing and competition with each other (which is great when it comes to besting each other with their school marks).

I created this page to celebrate that moment in time when they truly were besties. I really hope it comes back around again—someone reassure me this tween thing is a stage!

The base of this page is my current fav In Color—Starry Sky! I used the stamp set Framed Occasions and Butterfly Kisses to bring this page to life. I used 3 of the fun patterns from the DSP and used the color palette to dictate the colors in my sentiments and the flowers. And my Paper Snips definitely got a workout this month!

 

I stamped some of the dotted circles on the left side of the page for a little texture that is tone on tone.

And I brought in the Beautiful Shapes Dies as this stamp set was designed to coordinate with these dies. I love when SU gives us another reason to use something!

I also used the Fun Flower Resin Shapes as an accent to this page as they work with my hand cut flowers as well. And really, they are just super cute!

I love everything about this page and how easy it was to create with this stamp set! I hope you don’t over look it in the Annual Catalogue!

A Card a Day in May-Day 14!!

/

Hello my friends! I hope you have been enjoying all of my card shares so far this month! This is a personal challenge for me to share A Card a Day in May! I have had an exciting month as I recently earned the Baltic Incentive Trip. I am a goal orientated person so now that I can check that off my list I can focus on fun creative things like this month long card sharing adventure!

One of my monthly card groups decided on a Wedding Swap theme so this is the card I have created to swap with them! My schedule is so tight that everything I make must serve a dual purpose!

I love the softness of this card as the color palette feels wedding like to me! My own wedding was a combo of 5 pastel colors so this is a little reminiscent of that!

Blushing Bride is my base and layer and I used the Beautiful Shapes dies to cut out a hexagon from the front panel. I then layed this back so that I could stamp the greenery shape from the Framed Occasions stamp set in Blushing Bride ink and flick my light Calypso Coral Stampin’ Blend. You can then discard this piece.

 

The sentiment is stamped inside this space on Basic White in Pale Papaya. The dotted ring around is a separate stamp in So Saffron ink.

I stamped the 3 larger flowers in Pale Papaya, Calypso Coral and Blushing Bride and hand trimmed them out.

The leaves and stem are stamped in Soft Succulent.

I really liked the idea of framing the sentiment with some florals and greenery. Adding a few our new Iridescent Pearls was the finishing touch! I hope you don’t overlook this stamp set in the new catalogue. I think it has tons of potential!
