Christmas One Sheet Wonder 6X6 Scrapbook w/Bells & Boughs

Here is the Christmas version of the One Sheet Wonder scrapbook. Made with the Bells and Boughs set from the current Holiday Mini Catalog. Embossed image with gold embossing powder, and then colored in with aqua painter and ink pads. In person, this has an elegant feel!

6X6 One Sheet Wonder Scrapbook-French Foliage

Last night we had fun making an entire 6X6 scrapbook in one sitting, using the One Sheet Wonder technique. The ladies had a choice between a fall theme or a Christmas theme; below is the fall one. This technique is so quick and easy! Simply stamp ans 8 1/2 X 11 sheet of cardstock, and then cut it up to make many different pages. In this case, we stamped 2 sheets, to give us a total of 15 scrapbook pages.

Stampin' Up! "French Foliage" set was used to stamp the cardstock. It can be found in the current Holiday mini.

Tuesday I will post the Christmas one!

Looking Ahead to Winter

I loooove tools that get a ton of mileage, and the bird punch is definitely one of those! Here's my version of the cardinal.

Faux Embossed Leather

Love this technique, and oh so easy! I wanted to use the "Out West" set for something other than a cowboy theme, and thought it paired up nicely with the leather technique.

Simply run the cardstock through the Sizzix Big Shot with an embossing folder. Brayer with versamark, clear emboss, and voila! Told you it was easy!

Halloween Treat Box

Not super happy with the way this turned out. Think I need to remove the jack-o-lantern?

Made using the Box #2 Die, running it through with the spider web textured impressions embossing folder, and then sponging shimmer paint over it to make the web look like a web. Hole punched out with oval punch, and then acetate put inside the box to give it a window.

Wedding Card

We have a wedding to attend tomorrow, so off to the stamp room to create a card.

The base layer is textured white cardstock. The visible white layer is stamped with the Stampin' Up! background stamp"French Filigree" and embossed using Irridescent Ice. Hearts are from the "Always" set; white heart also embossed with the Irridescent Ice. Mr & Mrs is from "All Holidays". Lovin' the new rhinestones! So quick and easy to use!

Punch Art

If you have never visited Ellen Kemper's blog, you must do so now! The woman is absolutely A-MA-ZING with punches! And pretty funny, to boot.

A while back, Ellen made these o-so-fun ladies. When I saw Stampin' Up!'s "Word play" stamp set, I thought it was a perfect fit! "Remember When"...."Imagine the Possibilities"....."Go Confidently in the Direction of your Dreams"......"Wish Big"......LOTS of possibilities!
