Challenge: Fun Moment 12 x 12 Scrapbook Page

When I first saw Serendipity May 2014 Sketch challenge, I HAD to make something with this WONDERFUL & TRENDY design - thanks, Miyuki-san!!!! BONUS: I saw 2Peas National Scrapbook Day Challenge's Gold Color Trends with Jen Gallacher so it's in that gallery too. CLICK ON IMAGES to make it larger :)

Yup, the person next to me is SUPER SWEET & TALENTED Teresa Collins who is an AMAZING designer! I am lucky to have her as a friend in the industry for over 8 years and it's been five years since we took a picture together! LOL! Thanks Teresa and Creative Cards & Crafts (Villa Park IL) where she taught a couple of weeks ago!!

私はmiyuchiさんのサイト、Serendipity 5月のスケッチで作ってみました (めっちゃカッコイイデザイン!)。 ご紹介させて頂きます。Teresa Collins Design Urban Market Collection, Spellbinders, Scrapbook Adhesive by 3L等 使いました。ゴールドとTrendyな三角形のデザインが大好きで~!miyuchiさん、素敵なスケッチありがとうございます :) Teresa Collins Designは日本にも購入できますよ!

 スケッチはこちら↓ (拡大するには、Imageをクリクしてね )


Here's what I created from the sketch! 私の作品です~!


I used Teresa Collins' Hello My Name Is Collection (Photo Overlays) for just the right amount of accent for the photo. To secure them together, I used Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L® gold photo corners - the color is beautiful and has a matte tone.


To continue on my gold accents, I inked the edges of the patterned papers and die cuts for a subtle highlight.


Next I layered and adhered all the pieces with Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L E-Z Runner Permanent Tape Adhesives.


The ribbon tails, I bent them for dimension and adhered them with Dodz™ medium glue rounds.


Then I layered all the triangles from Spellbinders® Nested Pennants die templates and added 3D Foam Squares to some of them for extra dimension.


Here's a second look at the finished page...

JustRite: Bicycle Built For Two

Today, I am introducing JustRite® PaperCraft’s May 2014 ReleaseBicycle Built For Two Cling Stamps and Iron Swirls Cling Background Stamp with SVG Bicycle Built For Two Digital Download Cut File and using Spellbinders® M-Bossabilities™ Venetian Folder to create a card.





JustRiteの5月リリースの最終日です。今日はBicycle Built For Two Cling StampsIron Swirls Cling Background StampSVG Bicycle Built For Two Digital Download Cut File を使い、楽しいカードを作ってみました。電動カッター機 (Silhouette) & SVGファイルをつかい、とっても簡単に作りました!色をDistress Inkを使い、春らしい感じにしました。


After I stamped the Iron Swirls Cling Background Stamp, I trimmed and colored with a combination of Faded Blue Jeans, Pine Needles and Mustard Seed inks. Then I hand cut the ribbon tails and edged with Faded Jeans ink. Using my Silhouette machine, I cut SVG Bicycle Built For Two Digital Download Cut File and stamped its matching bicycle image from Bicycle Built For Two Cling Stamps.


The sentiment was stamped, then cut/embossed with Vintage Labels Two Dies and embellished with bling. I assembled all the pieces together on the card panel and tied Bakers Twine with a button to finish. I used M-Bossabilities Venetian Folder to create texture to the card base.


Here's a second look at the finished card...

JustRite: Large Birthday Party Sentiments Clear Stamps

Today, I am introducing JustRite® PaperCraft’s May 2014 ReleaseLarge Birthday Party Sentiments Clear Stamps, using Spellbinders® Romantic Rectangles Two die template to create a shaped card.


今日のJustRite5月のリリースは誕生日テーマです(Large Birthday Party Sentiments Clear Stamps)。とっても明るいデザインなのでカードも明るい色に作ってみました(笑)。スペルバインダーズのRomantic Rectangles Twoダイを使い、Shaped カードにしました。


I create my shaped card by cutting and embossing two of Romantic Rectangles Two Die #3 (the smallest size is #1). I flipped the paper and cut/embossed Die #2.


After I adhere the card base together, I layered Die Cut #2 on the card front. Next I tied Bakers Twine and placed a pink crystal flower for embellishment.


I stamped the sentiment from Large Birthday Party Sentiments Clear Stamps and placed Romantic Rectangles Two Die #1 over it to cut/emboss.


Last I added bling to the bottom of the sentiment and it's ready to be sent out!
