June 2024 Monthly Recap Layout

As soon as I looked over the photos I chose for this Monthly Recap Layout and the sketch I had picked for Wednesday's Scrapbook with me event I knew I wanted to work with the papers from the Painted Petals July 2024 Paper Pumpkin kit! I had looked at the papers and embellishments when I received the kit and had se it aside to work with in a scrapbook layout instead of cards.

The inspiration for this layout came from this sketch from the Create e-Magazine from Scrapbook Generation. 

I converted the sketch from 12" x 12" to 8 1/2" x 11" and changed the photo sizes to work with the new layout size. I also changed up the number of squares of patterned paper on each page but kept the sizing the same. The title was cut with my Cricut. 

I used some of the die cut pieces from the Paper Pumpkin kit to embellish the layout and add dimension. Each floral piece was originally inside a frame which I fussy-cut it away from and then used Dimensionals to place it directly over the matching printed square.

I love how this whole layout came out!

May 2024 Monthly Recap Layout

Finally getting caught up this week on some of my Monthly Recap Layout series. I completed this layout during Monday's Scrapbook with me event and used up some retired Stampin' Up double-sided patterned paper. I loved working with the patterns from this collection.

The inspiration for this layout came from this sketch from Even More Scrapping. You can see this sketch along with others here.

I converted the sketch from 12" x 12" to 8 1/2" x 11".  I resized the photos to work with the new layout size. The title was cut using my Cricut and I added an offset to add some more dimension to it. I added some pearls from my stash to finish the layout.

2024-2026 In Color 4 Sheet Wonder Cardmaking Workshop

Excited to share with you my next 4 Sheet Wonder Cardmaking Workshop featuring Stampin' Up products. I had a lot of fun creating this workshop using the 2024-2026 In Color 6"x6" double-sided patterned paper. I was inspired by some of the monochromatic cards I have seen on Pinterest recently and wanted to try my hand at creating a workshop with this feel to it.

The In Color 6"x6" double-sided paper comes with 4 patterns for each color from the suite so I chose to use 1 sheet featuring each pattern. The workshop creates 10 cards from the 4 6"x6" sheets plus 12 sheets of cardstock (includes using cardstock for the card bases). As always I am sharing the cutting diagram for the patterned paper here with you. The cardstock cutting diagrams and card sketches are available with purchase of the workshop digital files.

These are the cutting diagram for the patterned paper. I followed the same cutting diagram for each of the 4 sheets.

These are the 10 card designs you will be able to create with this workshop.

If you are interested in creating this workshop for yourself or with your customers, there are 4 ways to get the files:

Cheers Layout

 Had a great time at my 40th (well actually 41st) high school reunion recently. It was great to get together with my friends and classmates. I finished this layout during a recent Scrapbook with me using up some retired Close To My Heart patterned paper. .

The inspiration for this layout came from this sketch from Scrap Much. You can see this sketch along with others here.

I converted the sketch from 12" x 12" to 8 1/2" x 11". I changed the size of the photos along with the number of photos to work with the new layout size. The chevrons were cut using a punch from my stash. The title was cut on my Cricut. I added some glitter "x"s from my stash to embellish the layout.

Love Being A Mom Layout

I had a wonderful Mother's Day this year! Mike and the girls made me breakfast in bed, I got to enjoy a relaxing day with them, plus I had a delicious dinner. I had fun creating this layout using up some of my stash of the retired Forever Greenery Stampin' Up DSP. I love the colors and patterns in this paper and how well they worked with the layout.

The inspiration for this layout came from this sketch from Brenda Ragsdale. You can see this sketch along with others here.

I converted the sketch from 12" x 12" to 8 1/2" x 11". I changed the photo size along with the number of photos to work with the new layout size. The title is a combination of die cut letters and some small block letter stickers from my stash. I also added some clear sparkles from my stash to complete the layout.
