Scrapbooking Global Blog Hop - Mar 21st, 2024 - Celebrating Hobbies

 


Sneak Peak, these cute Stampin' Up! stamped products can be found in the
Stamp set - Crafting With You and they have matching dies as well

 

 

 

Welcome to Scrapbooking Global Blog Hop - Mar 21st - Celebrating Hobbies.
This month we have Guest Designer Lisa Stucker showing us the variety of crafts
that Lisa dabbles in, in her spare time.  She is so talented!
 Lisa has created 5 layouts for this challenge, what an AMAZING effort.
In Lisa's PDF she has included all 5 layouts which will be uploaded into the files section of
Scrapbooking Global - Stampin' Up! Group after 2pm
 


 

We are trying to encourage EVERYONE to join in the HOP's every month.
We prefer that you do have a Blog so that you can join the hop every month.
BUT you don't have to have a blog to participate in these monthly challenges
by submitting a photo to the Album of the Month after 2pm AEDT.



Celebrating Hobbies for me is all about Stamps, Ink and Paper.
My layout is very bold and I am trying the CTMH style of page with Colour Blocking
I have used the Earthen Elegance DSP and Masterfully Made DSP.


The Frames and the Heart is from the Radiating Stitches Dies
The Circles are from the Stylish Shapes Dies
AND the stamped images are from the Crafting With You Bundle.
The title is made with Alphabet Al A Mode - CRAFT - is an acronym for
Creating Really Amazing Fun Things (which can be found in the NEW Catty pg 102)
It is spelt out in the smaller title and is stamped with Alphabest Stamp set.
Which I haven't finished completely SORRY, I still need to add Stamps, Ink and Paper yet



I used Pretty Peacock Ink on this layout.


Up next... Julia Quinn with her Celebrating Hobbies layout.

Crafty Collaborations - Scrapbook Sunday - Notes of Nature



Sneak Peak

 



 


 

 

 

Welcome to the Crafty Collaborations Scrapbook Sunday Blog Hop,
Crafty Collaborations is a group of Stampin' Up! Demonstrators from throughout
the world collaborating together and sharing their creative flair.
You may have joined me from
Rochelle Laird Smith blog or you may be 
starting here with me... Thank you for joining us this month.


I LOVE not having any theme or challenge for our Crafty Collaborations Blog Hop.
It allows me to choose EXACTLY what I want to create with, not having any boundries.
I have been playing with Notes of Nature all this month, it is such a FUN set of stamps that allows you to create a collage type of background simply by using 1st, 2nd
and third generations of ink on your stamp.
I used Pebbled Path, Boho Blue and Misty Moonlight Classic Stampin' Pad to layer
all the stamped elements on top of each colour. 
I totally forgot to take a photo before I started adding all the layers.



That was all I needed to create this layout of our Son's Wedding in Oct last year.
The Cake actually isn't blue it was a purply colour BUT when I printed the photos out
this is the colour it came out.... So I decided to go with the Boho Blue 12"  x 12" Cardstock.

This long leaf die has so much detail on all the leaves, I didn't want to hide them.
 So I chose to use Scalloped Contours Dies to cut Vellum cardstock as the frame to layer the photos on over the leaves.  Laura's dress had such gorgeous leaves all over the sleeves so I thought it was very appropriate to add these leaf dies behind the frames.




It is a very simple layout BUT it has my signature layers with the leaves and flowers.
The flowers that were on a couple of leaves these are fussy cut from the DSP.

The sentiments came from the stamp set Cake Fancy in the Jan-Apr Mini Catalogue.
I also added Celebrate from Wanted To Say Dies this morning and the photos are so different in the daylight hours than when I photographed yesterday afternoon under stormy skies.
Just perfect for this layout.



Up next is the super talented Marga Bultena, with her layout.

I hope that you have enjoyed all the layouts that we shared with you today.
We have so many talented scrapbookers among us Stampin' Up! Demos
