Welcome to the Everything ABC's Blog Hop!
For this hop we will be featuring the letter 'G". This may be the name of a paper, a stamp set or an embellishment. Whatever the crafter has chosen as their # element will be featured in their post.
If you have just hopped onto my blog, please start at the beginning at Linda's blog ~ Scrappy Therapy.
If you came from Cary Magnani - My Heart's Design then you're on the right track!
The letter "G" represents "Giggles & Grins" which is the title of my scrapbook layout.
This is a picture of my daughters during Christmas 2006. There were a lot of grins and giggles taking place during this photo shoot.
I used Laughing Lola paper as I thought it complimented the black and white picture well. The design concept came from the Make It From Your Heart Vol. 2. This is a great way to get your creativity going with the beautiful patterns this book is comprised of. If you take a look at page 11 you will see some similarities
on this page even though I made it my own.
I used the Artbooking cricut cart for the title and the heart border. I used the inside hearts from the border to embellish the page. You can find these cuts on page 80. Set your dial to 11 and cut!! So eazy peazy!! I like to say "set it and forget it"...(remember that food informercial...it applies here lol). I added some Teal Shimmer Trim, Lagoon Houndstooth washi tape and Aqua Dots. I stamped the year using Lagoon ink and the Keyboard Uppercase stamp. The "Picture Perfect" sentiment comes from Instant Memories stamp set and was stamped in black ink. I did a little faux stitching across the top and bottom of the page. I love how this turned out.

I really like this layout... the letters looked 3D when I first looked at it (I thought that they were chipboard).
ReplyDeleteThank you!! The letters are double layered. I cut the title in black and lagoon and slightly offset the title which gives it that look.
DeleteWow, I love the teal and purple together!~
ReplyDeleteThank you Lauren :-) I like the color combo as well.
