Tag: Scrapbook Pages

Technique Tuesday 2-17-09

Today I thought I would share with you a cute project that we did at a recent workshop.  It you would be interested in doing this fun project at your own workshop give me a call 435-245-5321.

This is a simple technique but I love it.  It’s simply looking at a card or scrapbook page and using the layout for the opposite.  That means use a scrapbook page layout for a card or a card layout for a scrapbook page.  I really love it when I can use the same layout for both. 

sab-friendshipHere is my example.  I used the exact same supplies and lay out to create this fun 3×6 card.

sab-friendship1Then I did it as a 6×6 scrapbook page.  By moving the stamped image and adding the photo it give it a whole new look.  

I really love this concept for a gift because you can make the cute page and them make a matching card.

This is a picture of me with my friend Deborah.  She is one of the demonstrators I met at Leadership last year.  This picture was taken at Convention when we both earned Hawaii.  One of the best parts of becoming a demonstrator has been the friends I’ve made.  Weather they are in my down-line or just our group it so awesome because I never would have met them if it weren’t for Stampin’ Up!®  If you want to find out more about the benefits of becoming a demonstrator click here.

Marvelous Monday 2-16-09

Recently I was able to preview the new Spring Mini Catalog (just one of the many perks of becoming a demonstrator.  Can I just say “So cute”  I can’t wait.  Be watching for a Sneak peek and pre-order items for customers starting March 1st.  Anyway I was looking back through some old projects and remember this scrapbook page that I entered into a contest last year.  Although the paper and many of the accessories are now retired (it was last years spring mini) I thought the idea would inspire you and remind you that our mini catalog items are for a limited time only so start planning today.  April and May are great times to have a Stampin’ Up!® party.

field-trip-pg-1This was my son Mikey on his Kindergarten field trip. I just love how the chipboard elements add depth to the page.  These pages used last year’s In-Colors.  Remember the current In-Colors are only available until the end of June.  Stock up now to make sure you get your favorites.

field-trip-pg-2I really love this page.  The big pictue was my favorite.  I loved that I was able to print the pictuers to just the right size with my pictue printer (HP Photosmart D7360)  I love it.

Swapping Saturday 1-31-09

This was a 6×6 page swap that I did for convention last year.  I really loved how it turned out.  I think the same basic layout could be used on a 12 x 12 page.  I will have to give it a try.  The Flower in the corner is just the large flower cut out and then folded back and under.  I saw it somewhere and thought it looked really cool.
