Crafty Collaborations - Scrapbook Sunday - A Perfect Day

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 Donna's 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 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

don't you agree with the AMAZING layouts here.

This month I was still on holidays BUT had some photos from Eloise's 2nd Birthday.
Sooo I quickly whipped up this Birthday layout with Wildflower Birthday suite before heading off to Perth for a 3 day weekend of car drives, boat rides, bus rides and more car drives PLUS 2 full days on our feet.

BUT Rottnest Island and Perth Zoo were well worth the tired feet.
I am sure that I will be scrapbooking that at some later stage.

So I just designed this very simple layout.
Using off cuts of DSP I created my border edges.

I created 2 photo mounts, 1 4" x 6" and a cropped 3" x 4" photo.
Using the elements from the Wildflower Birthday 12" x 12" DSP pack you will find 
so many AMAZING Birthday diecuts.  Already pre diecut for you, you just need to pop them out and store them safely in the Stamp Cases.

The large photo has also a hidden journalling spot...
Show you how I hide my journalling in a layout.

Using Dimensionals I add to the back of the photo mat and that gives me the space to put the journalling block and then I add another piece of Cardstock over the top and add adhesive 
and stick it to the page, this allows me to be be able to pull out and put back in the journalling.  The journalling block came from the Diecut page.



The rest of the layout was simply adding Diecuts from the punch out sheets.

I stamped DAY from the FREE Sale-A Bration set that I earnt
when I pre-ordered all of this suite.  For every $100 you spend you receive a FREE item.

 The Make A Wish is from the co-ordinating stamp set - Birthday Celebrations

I hope you enjoyed how I created this layout...

Basic White Scrap - Memorable Blooms Flower
Basic White Scrap - Love and Thanks
Basic White Layer - 5 1/4" x 3 7/8" - Card Insert stamped with matching Flowers

Love and Thanks

To start creating this card you will need a Stamp Cut and Emboss Machine, so that you can 
Emboss and cut out the Die cut pieces used on this card.

Firstly I used my FREE Embossing Folder to add the Starstruck design from the embossing folder to the Basic White Layer
Then I added a piece of the Fresh Freesia Crinkled Seam Binding Ribbon at the back and around the front adhering it only at the back.

Next I cut out 3 Rounded edge shapes from the Nested Essentials Dies and adhered them to the Embossed layer behind the FREE ribbon... Stuck them down securely.

Next I used my Stamp Cut and Emboss machine to Diecut the Flower and the Leaf design
from the Basic White Scrap of Cardstock.
To colour the flower I used a Dauber and some Wink of Stella and
Soft SeaFoam Ink for the leaves.
Next I adhered the leaf over the ribbon and then I adhere Stampin' Dimensionals to the back
of the Flower Design and added that over the top of the leaf and the ribbon.

Next I tied another bow from the  Fresh Freesia Crinkled Seam Binding Ribbon and adhered it over the ribbon to make it look like it was 1 complete piece of ribbon.

Stamped my sentiment on the scrap of Basic White Cardstock stuck this directly to the DSP layers.

Lastly I stamped a flower on the insert layer of Basic White Cardstock and
coloured the same way that I have done on the front.  Then stamped You are Awesome.
