Layout # 11 2011 Challenge

This is the layout my hostess club did last month and although it looks fairly simple, there was a lot of stamping on this! We stamped the peacock from CTMH My Acrylix "Circle of Love" with Versamark, embossed it with CTMH White Daisy embossing powder, then inked around it using sponge daubers. The embossing resisted the ink so the beautiful peacock was highlighted. We added some Glitz glitter gel and some sparkles to finish her off. This layout has tons of room for pictures and journalling and will utilize our large 6 x 12 flip flaps attached to a 12 x 12 page protector. The title goes along the bottom on the strip of vineyard berry cardstock - I left it blank until I decide what photos I want to use on this. I adapted the "Abracadabra" layout from the Magic book to create this.

All materials used are Close To My Heart. Ink colours used: Vineyard Berry, Heavenly Blue, and Pacifica. Magnifiqe Level 2 paper pack, "Unity' and "Circle of Love" stamp sets, flip flaps, Sparkles blue/green assortment, Foam tape, Glitz glitter gel, sanding block to distress papers, sponge daubers, White daisy embossing powder, heat tool.

Layout 67-72 2010 Layout Challenge

This is one of the layouts we did at Convention this year, and I am teaching it as a workshop because I love the concept so much. It is actually 6 pages (2 are back to back) but because of the way it is displayed using our new, larger Flip Flaps it only requires the use of two page protectors in your album. Ingenious! It's perfect for scrapbooking an event that you have a lot of pictures for! All products used are CTMH: Magnifique Level 2 paper pack, My Acrylix "Circle of Love", Flip Flaps (3 sizes), Foundry Flourishes, Mocha Opaques, inks in Chocolate, Pear, and Lagoon.
