Hey fellow paper lovers, Nicole back with this 12x12 scrapbook layout based on the inspiration photo posted over in Inspiration Station Blog. Here is the inspiration photo: I started this page by paper piecing and I'm using pages from my Limited Edition Kit from My Creative Scrapbook. I took a steelish blue colored page for the top and a red patterened paper for the bottom. I used some texture paste through a snowflake stencil that I got at {Not} Just for Boys Kit Club on the blue to bring in that element from the inspo photo, and used some black ink through a buffalo plaid stencil on to the red paper to bring in the blanket element. I used some elements from the 49 And Market laser cuts, ephemera, and flowers from my LE kit to add some pretty elements to the left and right of my photo, which is my brand new mug I got for Christmas that is filled with delicious tea! I finished my page with some journaling at the bottom, some burlap hearts that I got from Redefined Kreative, and some little sparkly bits I got from my local craft store.
I have a video of this process over on YouTube, you can find it here: Cat Mom YouTube Video Thanks so much for stopping by to read about my layout.

Hello scrappers! I'm bringing you this traveler's notebook layout as a brand new design team member for Inspiration Station. Here is the inspiration for this weeks challenge! A woman in a flowy red dress with greenery wrapped around her. She is sitting in a snowy forest. I bet she's cold! I started with the white snow flake paper to match the snow in the inspo photo. Then I tried to bring in as much red and green as possible with out going crazy! I used this red trim to copy the flowiness of her dress into my layout. I also added some brown paper burlap behind my photo to bring in the forest aspect of the inspo. I added my title along with journaling and my layout was ready for my traveler's notebook!
Thanks for popping in here to read about my layout and I hope you can check out Inspiration Station to be inspired in your next project! Til next time, Nicole |
Shaker ElementHello all! I am currently working on a mini album of a snow play trip we took in January. I wanted to put all kinds of different elements into it so I thought it would be a perfect time to add a shaker box. So first off I decided to use a snowflake cut file from The Cut Shoppe for this element and the first thing I did was cut some of the inside elements out to make the visible area bigger. Then I glued a piece of scrap page cover to the snowflake. I glued a bigger piece and once it was dry I then cut it down to just my shaker area. I then cut my foam dots in half to box it in.
So my snowflake is ready for my dodads! First I placed my snowflake on top of where I wanted it and took a mental note of where the shaker part would be. Then I placed a little pile of sequins and confetti where it will go.
I then pulled all those little backings off my foam dots and placed my snowflake where is supposed to go and viola, I had a beautiful little shaker snowflake! I hope you enjoyed this tutorial, please let me know in the comments if there is something you would like to learn for scrapbooking!
