Scraplift a Scrap Page - Scrapbooking Global Blog Hop November 2021

 

Welcome to this months hop - I got to pick this one and I have been looking forward to it. I don't know about you but I love looking at other scrappers work and recreating it myself. The circle of scrapping friends I hang with call it Scraplifting so I thought it would be a great theme for us to do. So here is my page.

If you are coming from Maï Chapelains blog, you are already in the loop but you can otherwise follow the links below and you will eventually get to see all the pages we have to share.

I have scrap-lifted a friends page - a little history I have been scrapping with this friend for probably 15 years or more and I have always been in awe of her pages. I chose this page because we have so many different ribbons and fibers and if you are anything like me you will have just as many. So this is the page I scrap lifted.

The flowers and ribbons on my page are all Stampin Up! some are retired but I wanted some variety so I pulled out as many as I could find and if I didn't have one the right colour well I coloured it.

Kim used a doily for added texture in the center of her page - I didn't have one to use so I cut some velum using the Artistic Dies from the current Annual Catalogue for a similar effect.

I also had a big box of gems of all varieties so I became very heavy handed with popping those babies everywhere. 

Heads up - the ribbon is all stapled to a cardstock circle to make it go around nice and evenly. Under the photo there is a journal card that slips in and out from under the photo.

There is inspiration all around us be it the print on someone's, clothes a nice bag we see or even  something we feel like the warmth of the sun on our faces. Think about where you get your inspiration from.

Hooray It's Thursday - Stampin' Up! Eden's Garden Suite

No video to share this week due to - well let's say user error - I didn't press record on the video when I was making the card. I still want to share it but will need to do another with a video for you at a later date.

Eden's Garden is an early release stamp set and Die bundle from the upcoming January - June catalogue. The stamp set and die set will be in that catalogue but the other releases to go with the suite will not - they are for this promotion and available while stocks last or until the 2nd January 2022.

Love this SUITE? Why not get it as part of a joining kit? Add a trimmer, some adhesives, cardstock and some ink to make up a great kit with this beautiful suite.
