Scrapbooking Global December Holiday Theme Blog Hop





 Welcome to Scrapbooking Global December Blog Hop.
I cannot believe that we are so close to the end of the year....
Which can only mean one thing...Holidays and Christmas.

You may have just hopped from Sara Levin's Blog to my blog.
This month it's Sara Levin turn to choose a theme for our Blog Hop.
Sara choose Holiday Theme...It's my FAVOURITE time of the year.
So to be able to create a Scrapbooking layout about Christmas,
I am sooo excited to see all the lil children's faces when they see Santa AND 
when they open all those presents under the tree it is just MAGIC!!!

Thank you for everything you do behind the scenes Sara
in regards to the running of  Scrapbooking Global Blog Hops 
every month... Thanks again <3


 

 I have been doing a bit of colouring with our Blends, so I decided to create a layout
that uses some of the stamped images that I have coloured.
The layout started with Santa from Holly Jolly Christmas...
AND then I had the Stockings from the dies...


Another stamp set and punch that I used was the Christmas Gleaming set
I stamped out the detailed baubles and coloured them in some of the 
colours that I had used on Santa and his presents.



I rounded the corners of a piece of Poppy Parade to make a
border around my corner rounded photos of my Cousin's 2 Daughters
Ella and Hannah that I look after throughout the year.
 This layout is relatively easy...just some colouring <3

We are so lucky that Stampin' Up! create so many GORGEOUS products
to keep us creating with NEW products throughout the year.
If you want some of these products you will need to place an order
BEFORE Dec 31 via my online store.
 

That's it from me, I hope that you liked what I created.
Up NEXT is Sherry Roth, Sherry always creates a Mini Album for Christmas....
Sooo I am wondering if that is what she will share with use today.
We will have to just wait and see <3
WHATEVER it is It will be Beautiful <3

Ink & Share Scrapbook Blog Hop - Fall Theme

Welcome to Ink & Share Scrapbook Blog Hop - Fall Theme
I have been away from this hop for a while and I am glad to be back...
You may have just hopped from Sue McDonald's Blog.

Fall is not something we celebrate here in Australia,
so I decided to scrap some photos of my Cousin's Beautiful Family.

I have kept it pretty simple Ink and Paper and some Die Cut shapes.

I grabbed the Come to Gather Suite products and Rooted In Nature Suite products
then I grabbed the matching inks to Come to Gather DSP.
Merry Merlot, Early Espresso, Cajun Craze, Mint Macaron, Pear Pizzazz, Pretty Peacock.

I have so much Very Vanilla 12x12 Cardstock so I decided to use it as my background.
I stamped various leaves and background stamps on the RHS of my layout...
Not really thinking about where I was putting my DSP... I have covered a fair bit of it up.
Then I kept adding stamps until I was happy with the background
Then it was deciding which piece of DSP, I couldn't resist this gorgeous Pretty Peacock DSP
Next I started by stamping some leaves from both the stamp sets onto Very Vanilla cardstock then cutting them out with the dies that match the suites.

Some of the leaves I tried a new technique to me - Stamping with the Dies.
Have you tried this? This die is an embossing die...
So you have to fussy cut them out! Which I love doing so it was fun...
Stampin' Up! brought out some Embossing Mats that allowed us to emboss with our dies,
these have since been retired BUT I love them so I thought I would use them today.
So I used this to get the embossed look seen here.
Below this photo I will show you the Sandwich layers to achieve this..
Now I have done it upside down to the way that this designer shows us,
Just so you can see the layers.
 
Here is what it looks like after you run it through the bigshot,
look at that embossed texture.




Next I cut all my mats and then layered the leaves in and around them.
I cut out the word Happy from Merry Christmas dies 147912


I had the layout finished BUT I knew I was running out of ink, 
URGH I hate that when it runs out!!!

So I tried to print all the photos and all BUT one is good!!
Sorry this happened...

So here is the FULL Colour photo of the layout...
I am not sure if I want to add a large photo on the left or leave it!!



Up next is Angelique with her wonderful creation.

Here is a full list of the participants of the Fall Blog Hop


Thank you for joining me on this Blog Hop,
I look forward to hopping around the rest of the group.

What an AWESOME Theme - Seeing Double Delys Cram

Ideas for Seeing Double - Double Layout Scrapbook Page
  maybe Mirror Imaged Double Layout Scrapbook Page,
use the same photo twice - 1 big and 1 smaller...
Blurry photo and InFocus photo on the same layout.
Twins, Repetive pattern, Mirror Image Stamping, Stamped images doubled up!!

So it was a bit of brain storming or straining this morning to get this layout done.
So I decided on a Double Layout with Double almost the same photos..
Luckily for me my Niece just put up her Wedding photos on FB in the last couple of days.
So I fussy cut out some flowers from Pressed Petals Speciality Designer Series Paper.
AND Pressed Petals Specialty Washi Tape
And then grabbed some of the co-ordinating cardstock and off I went.
It is a very easy layout...No STAMPING whatsoever!!!
