Family Scrapbook Layout

Hey crafty friends!  Welcome back to another Scrap Our Stash blend the sketch challenge reveal.  If you’re new to this challenge we take two sketches and pull inspiration from both and then add a twist.  This month our twist was adding banners or pennants.  I completed this challenge with my family scrapbook layout.

Let me start by sharing the challenge sketches so you can see where my inspiration came from:

From the first sketch I used the doily as my inspiration for the large floral cluster coming from the upper left of my photo. I also used the strip idea from the first photo except I put them down the left side instead of right on the photo. From the second sketch I used the square photo shape and single word title. Also, from the second sketch instead of a tag coming from the right side I used a single banner and a floral cluster.  If gave the same size feel, but I was able to use what came in the Felicity Jane kit I was using instead of adding other product. You can also see that some of my puffy stickers are pennant shaped to meet that part of the challenge.

The photo is my brother and his beautiful family.  My nephew is six in this photo and my niece was just six months.  It’s hard to believe she turned one already!

Father Son Simple Scrapbook Layout

Hey crafty friends!  Welcome back for another Scrap Our Stash project reveal. For this go around I created a father son simple scrapbook layout.  I wanted to show that you can create a cute project is very little time without having to have a large stash or the latest products.

If you’ve been following me on my scrap our stash team journey you won’t be surprised that I hadn’t seen/ didn’t know what the movie we were challenged with this month was.  We were to use A Star Is Born as well as using star paper and/or embellishments, and a certain quote.

I went with just the star theme since I didn’t know anything about the movie.  The photo is of my hubby and our son when he was learning how to ice skate a few years ago.  I believe my hubby started teaching him to skate at four!  This weekend he will start his first ice hockey team practice.  Our little star is born…see how I tied that in…lol

Come create a father son simple scrapbook layout with me. Layout can be created in less than 30 minutes using whatever papers you have on hand.

For the quote portion of the challenge I wrote it on the little fish tail embellishment on the lower right hand side of the photo.  This layout is so clean and simple I felt like it looked out of place anywhere else. I’ll actually do my journalling on the back of the page too to keep the simple look.

I hope you have enjoyed my take on the challenge, and seeing how a simple layout can be lovely too.  I’d love to see what you come up with based on this challenge, or even my layout.  If you play along please be sure to leave me a link so that I can check it out too.  Until next time….stay crafty!

Kids Beach Scrapbook Layout

Hey crafty friends!  I’m back here today with my first reveal of the month for Scrap Our Stash. This month’s movie was Transparent.  I must be striking out because this is another one I’ve never heard of, and after reading the synopsis it’s one I’d never put in my play list.  It does have the concept of family so I created a kids beach scrapbook layout from a recent trip with took with my parents.

Use a grid design to create a kids beach scrapbook layout. Grid designs make for a quick and easy way to use scraps and get your photos done.

In addition to using the movie concept we were also challenged to use a grid design and use either a transparency or vellum.  The grid can be seen in my overall shot easily, but the above photo shows better how I used vellum as a layer under parts of my photo.  I used vellum over a transparency because I actually don’t own any transparencies, or acetate even.  I like the look the vellum gave though as it was another layer, but it’s soft and a different texture than paper. What do you like to add to your layouts to give extra texture?

The paper collection is an old one from Carta bella called soak up the sun that I had been trying to to get finished up.  I am happy to report that it’s done and the scraps donated!  I have been getting so much used up  by being part of these challenges.  I think I have killed ten kits so far this year.

Well, I think that’s all I have for now.  I hope you find it inspiring and come over and participate in our stash busting challenge.  Until next time….stay crafty!

Hi everyone and welcome to the last Scrapping Our Stash blog hop for the year.  I’m your last stop, but you should have arrived here from Majken’s blog.
I’m the only one who didn’t do Christmas for the hop 🙂  I wanted to get the papers in this layout used  up!  It’s a very old Scrapbook Generation kit that I couldn’t use the way they intended so I challenged myself to use it up.I used it, but still mange to have most of it left…lol
The background and title were cut from my cameo and designed by my friend Stacia.  I them took my cheap watercolor set from Michael’s and colored the hearts a pale pink.  The papers from the background and heart fillings are Pink Paislee Bella Rouge. Oh, and the washi tape…hate it on the photo above, but like it in real life…strange!
Thanks for hoping with us today…and all year long!  Can’t wait to see what January brings for our hop community.
