Hey Crafty Friends,

Today I'm sharing a scrapbook layout, I'm not a scrapbooker by a long shot however we all have to start somewhere right? I for sure have many memories I'd like to get in a scrapbook and I'm starting with one of my most favourite memories to date when I got to attend a FriendsFest which is basically all things celebrating the TV Show Friends and a tour round some of the most iconic parts of the set!

Scrapbook Page Recipe:

1. Take 2 pieces of white card stock. I've taken some that I just had in my stash and cut them down to square pieces to fit your scrapbook page. I've cut mine so that it leaves a black border around the edge with the original scrapbook pages

2. On one sheet take the Krafty Alphabet and a large stamping platform, using the letter to spell out FRIENDS. Stamp them randomly over the page. Take some colour markers in a orange, yellow and blue to create the dots between the lettering

3. Place your first photos in desired place

4. Stamp images on alcohol marker friendly card stock and colour in your favourite medium. I'm using copics. Use images that match your theme on your pages.

5. Take your 2nd piece of white card stock for the other side of your double spread page and stencil the musical notes in the top left hand corner with dried marigold

6. Create a corner tab for the bottom left hand corner, this is to hold photo's without having to stick them down, it will also hold more than one in case you want to keep more pictures in one place!

7. Roughly place your other photos' on the page, I've got a small gap in the middle and the bottom of my page so I've taken the perfect postage stencil and used the same dried marigold ink to give the middle some colour and extra interest

8. Die cut some speech bubbles to stamp various sentiments that you feel fit your theme. Look through your stamp sets and see what you have that will work!

9. Add a juke box image to work with the musical theme on this page too.

I hope I have inspired you to give memory keeping a go, I for sure will be doing more scrapbook pages soon, I can only get better right?!

Until next time, happy crafting!

Starting with 2 large panels from the  Big Shadow Box Die cut from  Wintergreen  card stock. I then lay on top of the new  Winter Forest Backdrop Die TIP: As the backdrop die cuts a whole panel you need to line up and lay on top after cutting the 2 shadow box panels and partially die-cut each panel so we don't cut off our attachment tabs. I've

April Challenge - MyBesties

Hey Crafty Friends, It's a new month so that means the start of a new challenge over on the Colour it, Create it, Show it off challenge blog, as always our challenge is anything goes, that's any image, any project. Why not grab you favourite set and join us  here. If you would like to treat yourself to a new image you can find all the MyBesties images  here. This will be a shorter post again today, it's a very simple card. I coloured the image in Spectrum Noir alcohol markers and fussy cut around her. Taking a card blank and used Kitsch flamingo distress ink to bring down some colour to about a quarter down the panel and fade out into the white to give a very soft look and feel. Using some trees branches, flowers and leaves from a couple sets in my stash and a birthday sentiment to top this off and bring it all together.  I cant wait to see what you come up with for the challenge! This card was sent to a fellow crafter on Instagram in a birthday swap, it gave me joy to have

Swan Galaxy - Interactive card!

Image
Hey Crafty Friends, Welcome back, I'm sharing my usual design team post for Crafty Purple Frog a few days early because I am so impatient and love this card so much that I wanted to share with you all at the earliest opportunity!  Today's card is very fitting, I usually make a card with someone in mind or themed around something I've seen. My idea for this came as soon as I saw the set 'Spread your wings' This beautiful swan has big regal wings that meant it deserved the opportunity to fly! To start up I took a scalloped slimline frame die and inked up a galaxy type background, now the thing to remember with creating a galaxy background is it might look like a hot mess to start with! A galaxy background can use any colours you feel are fitting, I'm using Wilted Violet, Mermaid Lagoon and Candied Apple. You can put some greens and pinks in too if you would like.  Take a blending tool, I'm using a blending brush and bring in random sections of colour using you
