My Creative Time: Scrapping The Little Things

Happy Monday!

I hope you all had a fabulous weekend!

Today at the My Creative Time blog, it is Scrapping The Little Things.

This is the day that we create a scrapbook page, smash book page or a project life page. 

I decided to make a layout to have ready to insert some pictures from Thanksgiving onto. 

I had so much fun building this layout! All of my photo mats are from the Stitched Rectangular Frame Dies & More. I used the medium size frame for my mats which will allow me to use the smaller frame to cut out my picture and layer on top. (The measurements you see above will be what my photo will cut out at using the smallest rectangle frame). That way my pictures will also have that cool stitched border. I love that! I added a fun little tab using the Stitched Tab Die and I will add the date to that. The leaves were all cut from the A Thankful Heart set. I stamped my title using a sentiment from the A Thankful Heart set onto a frame from the Stitched Rectangular Frame Dies & More. My title is adhered with foam tape only in the middle so that I can easily attach my photos by sliding them under that frame. For my pumpkins, I used the Stitched Oval Die for my tall pumpkin and the oval from the Seasonal Greetings for my shorter pumpkin. The pumpkin stems and leaves all came from the Seasonal Greetings set as well. I finished it off with just a couple of enamel dots and some wink of stella on my leaves for a little shimmer.

Happy Monday!

I hope you all had a fabulous weekend and enjoyed the hop!!

Today at the My Creative Time blog, it is Scrapping The Little Things.

This is the day that we create a scrapbook page, smash book page or a project life page. 

Today we are showing you layouts based on the following sketch:

With Thanksgiving quickly approaching here in the States, I decided to make a few cards for a Project Life layout. 

I made 2 PL cards that are 4x6. I based each card off of the above sketch. For the card on the left, I left the sketch as is and for the card on the right, I flipped it sideways. Since I don't have the pictures yet, I figured this might be the easiest since I don't know which card will work for my particular picture yet. For my bases, I used the Stitched 4x6 Journal Die and for the photo area, I used the Stitched 3x4 Journal Die. My leaves were cut from the A Thankful Heart set. I stamped the Give Thanks from the A Thankful Heart set onto a banner from the Trio Stitched Banners set. The Grateful also came from the A Thankful Heart set and I stamped it onto one of the banners from the Stitched Decorative Banners. My leaves and my banners are glued down only on one end so that I can easily slip a photo underneath the elements that hang over onto the photo mat. 

I decided that I would also make two smaller cards by using the Stitched 3x4 Journal Die. For my journal card, I used one of the stamps from the Journal It! set as well as another leaf from the A Thankful Heart set. For my plaid card, I cut a circle out of the middle by using a circle from the Bunch Of Fun Circles dies and placed a pumpkin, made from the Seasonal Greetings set, into the center. 

Here is a look of all 4 cards together:

Now all I need is some pictures from Thanksgiving Day :)

For my layout, I decided to create a fun layout based on an afternoon that my daughter and I had not too long ago. We went to our outdoor mall, walked around and did a little shopping and then stopped by the Starbucks inside our Barnes & Noble and had some delicious coffee and split a brownie. 

For my layout, I stamped the date using some of the numbers from the Alpha Pack onto the Stitched Tab Die. I heat embossed the date with some white embossing powder. For my title, I used the Uppercase Fun Dies as well as the Lowercase Fun Dies. For my flowers, I used the Stitched Pretty Flowers & Leaves Dies. Once the flowers were assembled, I popped them up with a tiny bit of foam adhesive for just a bit of dimension.

I am just getting into Project Life (PL) and as soon as I saw the above sketch, a insert for my PL album came to mind.

For my PL card, I used the Stitched 4x6 Journal die for my base. Then I started building the top portion of my card. I cut out a square from black cardstock and another from the yellow patterned paper and layered them on top of each other. I then used one of the circles from the Bunch of Fun Circle Dies for my floral circle. I stamped my title onto some white cardstock using a stamp from the Way To Go set and just cut the ends to resemble a banner. I layered that onto a piece of  patterned paper and then very carefully, hand cut it out so that it lined up with the white cardstock.  For the bottom half of my PL card, I used that adorable little bike from the Way To Go set. I love that little bike!!

For my layout, I wanted to create a page that I could put into a frame to display in my home.

One year, my hubby and I took a trip back to our honeymoon spot and spent a weekend there while my mom kept our kids for the weekend. This is the only picture where we are both in the picture, thanks to a random person walking by who graciously took it for us :) 

For the layout, I used my Cameo to cut out that big pink circle. I used the Lowercase Fun Dies to cut out the word ADORE for my title. I cut out a strip of the blue cardstock and added a fun scallop edge to it by using the Fun Stitched Edges Dies. The "You And Me" is from the Circle Tab Sentiments stamp set. After it was stamped I punched it out with a 1" circle punch and then layered it on top of one of the circles from the Bunch Of Fun Circles Dies and then layered that on top of the Scallop Circle from the Scallop & Stitched Circle Die set. The tiny little yellow heart by the "You and Me" came from the 4x4 Journal Die + More set. I added some faux stitching with my white gel pen as well as a few enamel dots. I put my finished layout into a white 8x10 frame and it is now proudly displayed in my home :)

My daughter is graduating is just a few weeks, so I decided to make a little layout for some of the many pictures that I am sure to be taking that day :)

I based my layout on a sketch found at Sketch Support. You can see the sketch HERE.

I am normally a 12x12 double page scrapbooker, but for this layout I decided to change it up a little bit. I made a 8 x 10 layout. I made it this size so that I could put it into a shadow box and display it. Her school colors are red, white and blue and her gown is black so I stayed with those colors. I kept it pretty simple since the pictures haven't been taken yet. Once the pictures are adhered, I may embellish it just a little more. Honestly, I'm kinda liking the simplicity of it so I may just keep it as is. The banner hanging across the top of my layout came from the Stitched Party Dies. I used the Lowercase Fun Dies for my title and then stamped a grad hat from the Here's Looking At You set and just fussy cut it out and adhered it to the "G".  Isn't that flower cute?? It is from one of Emma's newest dies called Stitched Pretty Flowers & Leaves Dies. My white scallop was made using one of the edges from the Fun Stitched Edges die.  For my little hanging banners at the bottom, I used the banner die from the Vintage Stitched Label Dies. I added a little faux stitching with a black sharpie and doodled just a little bit on the title with a white gel pen. I also added some bling to the scallop, the flower center and the banner at the top. I am so behind on my scrapbooking, but at least I already have a current layout ready to go once the pics are taken and printed :)

Happy Monday!

I hope you all had a fabulous weekend!!

Today at the My Creative Time blog, it is Scrapping The Little Things.

This is the day that we create a scrapbook page, smash book page or a project life page. 

This is perfect for me cause I am sooooo behind on my layouts!! 

I based my layout on this sketch from PageMaps June 2011

Here is the layout that I created:

This is a 12x12 double layout from when we picked up our yellow lab puppy. We had to drive through 2 states to get to him but he was just what we wanted and oh so perfect!!  I wanted to incorporate some of his features on my layout so I used green for his eyes and brown for his nose and of course, since he is a boy, some blue. He is now 7 years old (I told you I was behind on my layouts haha!) and is spoiled rotten. He is so much a part of our family that I just couldn't imagine life without him. 

For the left side, I used the Stitched Tab Die, so that I had a place to write the month/year. I also used the Fun Stitched Edges for the fun little border. My hearts came from the Stitched Sweetheart & XOXO die set. 

For the right side, I used the Fun Stitched Edges not only for the fun top white border but for the green scallop as well. I used the Lowercase Fun Dies for my title and I used the hearts from the Stitched Sweetheart & XOXO dies for my hearts as well as my little pawprint. I simply turned the medium heart upside down and the used the middles of the P's to make it. 

I am so happy that I finally got a layout for my album completed.
