Sorry for the crappy photo…having camera issues today. I’m not sure I should admit that I have had this layout sitting around for <gasp> years! I’ve cleaned my scrapbook room this week and found it has made it’s way to the next step of having pictures with it. Really, all I needed to do is add the photos… At least it was an easy one for today when I am short on time! I will use flip flaps for to include all the individual family photos under the one on the right page of everyone. I used 3D Foam Tape to pop up the photos as needed around the dimensional element pieces. The Posterboard Alphabet stamp set that I used is great for many different techniques. I stamped it on my patterned paper, then cut out the letters for my title.
This stamp set had so many possibilities for winter projects! I used the snowflakes as embellishments and to create the white snowflake paper. I love layering stamped images to create 3D embellishments like the snowflake in the upper left corner. The title is stamped with the Pennant alphabet stamp set and attached with 3D foam tape. The Color-Ready ribbon is dyed with Crystal Blue ink using a sponge dauber.
Oh, I love-love-love how this layout turned out! I used this sketch from Sketch Support. All products are Close to My Heart. I used the retired Sweetheart papers with a Cotton Candy cardstock background. For the border I cut 2″ scalloped borders with the Art Philosophy cartridge, cut them in half and lined them up along the striped paper. The title is from The Perfect Title and also cut from the Art Philosophy cartridge. It took a little extra time to cut all the hearts from the Affection stamp set (stamped with first- and second-generation Cotton Candy ink) and attach with 3D foam tape, but it was well worth it! Grey sparkles were the finishing touch.
