Let's Strip - Scrapbooking Global Blog Hop August 2021

Welcome to my blog! Today is you guessed it Thursday! It is also the Scrapbooking Global August 2021 Blog Hop day. The design team and our guests are sharing our layouts created with the theme 'Let's Strip" this month. Our interpretations are all different so this hop is sure to be exciting but essentially it's purpose is to use strips to create our layouts or backgrounds. 

This page not only uses the beautiful Pattern Party DSP that is part of the Host rewards section of the catalogue but it is heavily dependent on Dies for the decorative edges of the paper. To see the list of supplies and tools click on any of the photos.

So I have included a bit of a walk around of the page not a 'making it' video with some tips and tricks for sewing with a sewing machine on cardstock.

Four Seasons in the Month - Scrapbooking Global Blog Hop July 2021

Hi! I’m Courtenay an independent Stampin’ Up! demonstrator from Australia. Welcome to my blog! Today is the Scrapbooking Global July 2021 Blog Hop. The design team and our guests are sharing our layouts created with the theme Four Seasons in mind. Our interpretations are all different so this hop is sure to be exciting and I am stoked as it fits perfectly into my Four Seasons in one month plans. So welcome to Winter in Australia with my wintery based page with a photo from our trip to Rovaniemi the Official home of Santa Claus.

Sharni is the creative owner of this theme and her page is beautiful - I hope she likes mine lol. So to create my page I have pulled out some retired goodies for this one because I don't have any current 'snow' stuff. I had been saving the Snowflake Sequins 'just in case' and I created myself a cut file like you see on Pinterest and this is the result.

I love Snow Globes and shaking them so thought yep a snow globe it is. Walking around Rovaniemi was like walking around in our own personal snow globe and an experience I can recommend it. 

     

Things to note - the DSP I used is Beauty of The Earth and teamed it with the Basic White Globe (cut on a cutting machine) I also used the In Color Shimmer Vellum and retired silver foil. 

The trees and background white is acrylic paint - if you are putting it on your stamps and stamping with it get it off the stamp before it dries and a fingernail brush is a great help to get it off. 

Now lets pop on over to see what Jill has to share with us - I wonder if she has picked a season or doing all 4? Guess you need to go have a sticky.

Grab 5 - Grab 5 items from your Stampin' Up! Stash for the Scrapbooking Global Blog Hop June 2021

 

Welcome to this months theme - and I am the owner of this months one. I picked this because I love the inspiration of the internet and converting other brand dominant themes or pages to Stampin' Up! with my twist. I love Inky Quill and her videos on YouTube - she is who I think of when I say Grab 5.

We all have a stash - leftovers purchased for another project, or things we couldn't resist when we saw them. The idea behind this theme was to grab the goodies from your stash not go shopping for what was on the list.

So this is my page - I will admit I purchased the new Expressions in Ink Suite for another project - actually a class i have coming up - well I love love love the DSP it is perfect for scrap pages. Who said school photos can't be pretty and not really 'schooly' looking? I am so far behind on school scrapping, I guess because they are the same old same old green and gold pages with those being the school colours for all 13 years! and I have to triple it with 3 kids going through the same schools.

I took some progress shots as a video was not on the cards for this one. The Lined Alphabet stamp - well it has retired but it is great for school pages so I used it with my Stamparatus for some added depth to the already fab background.

     

I made some of my own Die Cut Embellishments with the Artistically Inked Stamp & Die bundle to make it pretty. Heads up I didn't like the colour I stamped of the leaves so I just stamped over them in Shaded Spruce for a more dark green colour. I also stamped a heap of flowers then I could pick and choose what I wanted to use.

     

The title was cut in chipboard that comes with our specialty DSP as support - it is great I use it for heaps of things and titles is one. I coated the title with Versa Mark dipped it in heat & Stick powder then Gold Gilded it - let me say never again! On a card it is beautiful and easy - this was not easy it was not fun lol. But it looks great!

     

Some close up shots for you - I have also used the Expressions in Ink Ephemera pack from the Suite - note the little gold lines under the phots they are the waste bit from a frame. The gems I have used are the Genial Gems I had leftover from last months class.

    

Thank you for hopping with me now please pop on over to see what Sharni has to share with us.
