Ink & Share Scrapbook May Blog Hop

Sneak Peak

Welcome to Ink and Share Scrapbook May Blog Hop - Personal Choice.
Hello Everyone, I cannot believe that we are at the end of May
So this can only mean one thing June is just around the corner..
June means a Brand New Catalogue...
For me that means I need to add ink to some of the stamp sets that I have brought
throughout 2019-2020 Annual Catalogue and have NEVER seen ink!!

The stamp set and dies that I chose to use today is Love You To Pieces
and the co-ordinating dies Puzzle Pieces...PLUS other un-inked stamps

This is a set that I kept telling myself that I didn't need, BUT I kept seeing so many
inspiring layouts using this set that in May of this year I decided to buy it!!!

So inspiration is where I started this layout... I blatantly CASED Linda Dalke <3
BUT I added something that I had seen in the soon to be RELEASED Annual catalogue
PG 75, until June 3 we cannot show you the inside of the catalogue.

 
Firstly I gathered some similar colours to Linda, all the Greys and Blues.
Gray Granite, Smoky Slate, Basic Gray, Sahara Sand, Seaside Spray and Pacific Point.

First I stamped the stitched heart from Photopolymer Stamp Set Heartfelt across
the middle of my layout in 2 rows with Pacific Point.
I added some ink in places over the background stamp Handwritten
and just touched it lightly in varying places over the backgound
Next I started to add all the splotches of colour similar to Linda's

I just kept adding until I was happy with how it looked...
The splotches come from the stamp set Geared Up Garage
So Happy that it is carrying over into 2020-2021 Annual Catalogue
RELEASED June 3, cannot wait!!!

Next I added some hearts from Love You To Pieces Cling Stamp Set
using Smoky Slate and Pacific Point Inks.
Then I added the puzzle piece from Love You to Pieces stamp set stamped

in Pacific Point over the whole of the splotches, writing and hearts.
I do LOVE this whole grungy type look to a layout <3

I chose a photo of my Brother and I at my Daughter's Wedding...
I absolutely LOVE my Brother with all of my heart and
he keeps me calms my nerves and helps me hold it all together <3
Hearts had to feature in this layout,  so I had use Heartfelt Stamp Set too

The very next thing I did was added some of these splotches to a scrap piece

of Whisper White cardstock and then added the hearts again and
stamped the words Thanks for Keeping Me Together from Love You To Pieces set
then I ran it through the die cutting machine to cut it into small puzzle pieces
Then I rang a piece of Smoky Slate with the same die to create the background.

I cut a Heart from the Be Mine Stitched Dies and added it over the top.

Then I stamped Pacific Point ink on Pacific Point Cardstock to stamp Love You
and then I diecut it out and used dimensionals to pop it up.

I do LOVE how it turned out...Hope you enjoyed my process too <3
This photo is not the best, I have so much trouble with lighting...
will upload a new one in the morning

Up next is Kristie, who is an avid scrapbooker so I cannot wait to see what she
creates with this theme...

Scrapbooking Global-Stampin' Up! May Blog Hop - Interactive Pages

Welcome to Scrapbooking Global Blog Hop for May,
Creative Design Team Member Sharni Haines month.
She chose - Interactive Pages as her theme. 

We hop every month on the 3rd Thurs of the month, 2pm AEST.
Many of the Scrapbooking Global Members participate in the hop plus all the design team.

We want you to create a layout with some kind of interactive element...
IE A Wheel that you turn to reveal more photos, Flip up photos to reveal another photo almost like a waterfall card...Tabs that you can pull in and out...A moving feature like a shaker dome or a pull tab that allows the element to move on the page. Even a Mini Album with pockets and inserts.

 

Pretty cool theme, I chose to create a Mini Album with the Magnolia Lane
Large Specialty Memories and More Cards and Envelopes and Memories and More Cards.

Using photos of our 29th Wedding Anniversary, I have included lots of pockets
and pull out photos and spaces for journalling and tourist guides pamplets.

Firstly I stuck together 2 Cards back to back then I inserted 2 envelopes inside eachother
then created a small spine that the 2 cards could sit on inside the envelope...
Then I started to decorate... The beauty of this pack of cards and envelopes
is that it has envelope liners so I lined the inside of the envelopes.

Decorating with the Magnolia Lane Memories and More Card Pack
allows you to use the cards and embellishments to add extra elements to your photos
and pages.

Lots and lots of photos...Very shitty photos today as it is rainy and overcast...
I hope you Liked my take on interactive pages inside my mini album.
When the weather is better I will take better photos.
Thank you for stopping by, please head over to Cynthia's Blog now
and see what she created...

Kre8tors Blog Hop May - Floral

Welcome to Kre8tors May Blog Hop with the theme being Floral.
Such a broad theme, You can use any current stamp sets that contain a floral image,
or you can use any current DSP that contains florals,
or you can make some flowers from scratch!
Anything that has to do with flowers is acceptable
Scrapbooking is my passion <3 I just love that I can create something beautiful for me
to add photos to later on...So I got to fussy cutting floral images <3
This paper had me always thinking that I would cut it up.
I am using the Peaceful Poppies DSP, the one with the Poppies in a row...
Don't you agree that this DSP needs to be cut up...
I just didn't want to cover any of these poppies... So I chopped it!!!
I cannot wait to show you what I did with them...

You may have joined me from Nicole Mahler blog 
Or you are starting the hop with me - Shaz - CreativeMe68

Stampin' Up! create such beautiful papers that sometimes
you just don't need to stamp anything!!!
This is the case for this layout today....As I didn't know which photos I was
adding to this layout yet, BUT I woke this morning and remembered that
I STILL had my CentreStage photos to scrap...
I used a CENTRESTAGE piece from our present label to use in the black label spot
and I used a die to cut out 1st for the circle embellishment.


 
So after fussy cutting all my poppies I just kept using more of this beautiful DSP.
I kept layering it until I was happy with all the DSP that I used.
I even cut some Poppies so that I could pop them up with dimensionals.
So hard to see the dimension on a flat page...

Well I do hope that by me creating this layout it will inspire you to create
your very own scrapbook layout or card with this DSP...
I am sure that you will see plenty of inspiration if you follow the Blog Hop
all the way round, by clicking on the NEXT button and so on and so on!
There are 31 of us Hopping today....Lots of inspiration!!!
