Birdie Happy Days Scrapbook Layout

This is another 2-page layout for a class...
It was inspired by a layout from Workshops on the Go® La Belle Vie:

But using papers and dimensional elements from the Chantilly collection.


I still have some photos and embellishments to add...I'll post the finished layout, once I find the right photos! =)

Happiness is...Scrapbook Layout

A scrapbook layout for a class...inspired by the layout from Workshops on Go® Clementine (from CTMH), but using papers and dimensional elements from the Chantilly collection.


The photo is not very good...I tried to take it before my toddler woke up from his nap...meaning...I didn't have enough time! =)
You can scrap a 4x6 photo on the left page and five 2x2 on the right page (or one 2x4 and one 2x6, if preferred).

I'll add journaling and some other stamped designs...will post again when ready!

Have a nice weekend!

Buzz and Bumble Blog Hop - Damask Divas

Hello,

Happy Easter!!!

This is the Damask Divas Blog Hop featuring the Buzz and Bumble Paper Packet (X7164B).
If you came from Stephanie's Blog, you are in the right place.



If you have jumped here and just discovered our Blog Hop, fell free to check the list at Damask Divas Blog to find the complete list of Blog Hop participants.
And don't forget to enter the Damask Divas GIVEAWAY! This month's sponsor is Traci Williams. Enter to win a Close To My Heart stamp set and Cards/Envelopes set.

Here are some Easter gifts for my family (we are getting together this coming weekend, so "shhh"...don't tell them I have made these!) =)
The base is a piece of scrap mat board. I got them from a friend that works in a frame shop. 
These were inspired by the Workshops on the Go® Buzz and Bumble Scrapbooking Kit (G1054) projects.

This one is for my niece:

Detail of the flowers and bee (I used Stardust Glitz™ Glitter Gel - Z1313):

I'll be making variations on this photo of my sons for my mom and sisters-in-law:

They can be displayed on an easel or hung as ornaments (just punch holes and put a pretty ribbon on top!). I haven't decided what to do yet...but I think I might just add the ribbon! What do you think? Ribbon or no ribbon?

The next blog on the list is Carolyn's Blog.
Hope you have a great time on our Blog Hop checking out all the creations using Buzz and Bumble!


And don't forget the April Promotions!

Wonderful Fabulous You Card

Easter is almost here! I cannot believe it!

I made this card for a class that I'll be teaching in April.



I'm also entering this card in the "We're so Egg-cited for Easter!" Challenge at H2H Challenge Blog.
OK, so the card doesn't have eggs nor does it say "Happy Easter" (at least, not that you can see), but still...doesn't it look Easter-ish? =)
Birds always remind me of Easter...but where is spring??? Why is it still so cold???

Anyway...
Easel cards are awesome! And this one has the emboss resist technique.

Supplies used:
C1533 Fabulous You (CTMH)
B1418 Love Doily (CTMH)
Brilliance ink pads in four different colors

Have a good "Good Friday"!

I have a few techniques I want to try out (eventually)...and one of them is the easel card! 
So, I did a mini one just to get the hang of it! The card base is only 3 x 4.25 inches. 

And I am also entering this card in the "Mustache" Challenge at Heart 2 Heart CTMH Challenge Blog...so, I added a mustache to the bunny...quite charming, don't you think? =)




Supplies used:
X7167B Later Sk8r Paper Packet (CTMH)
B1416 Keyboard Uppercase Stamp Set (CTMH)
Sensational Season Stamp Set (CTMH) - retired

Thanks for stopping by!
