silly little things

I used the Scrummy Stash Cafe May Kit (Sassafras Gum Drop Garden, Bazzill ribbon) WRMK gromlets and doodlebug swimming pool flock. I used a Quickutz Frankie font. There is hidden journalling behind the photo(it hinges using the ribbon) about all of the silly little things I want to do.

I didn’t get my gromlets quite lined up, it’s something I will need to work  on.

hello

I used some scraps from the May Kit from Scrummy Stash Cafe and the Autum Leaves stamp provided with the SSC June kit. I stamped and heat embossed with a clear ink and embossing powder.

Message was stamped using Karen Foster mini casual snap stamps.

I fell in love with these Sizzix baby animals dies, the nose was a pearl coloured in with a sharpie.

scrummy summer

Summer Dayz

The challenge on the Scrummy Stash Cafe Blog  this week was simply to do something summery (unlike the weather).

So... I broke out the doodlebug (I love doodlebug), and I love plain cardstock. This page is very me.

I used Hopscotch alphabet in lily white, bazzill in lily white, pajama, bubblegum, pistachio and dragon fly, and a little snippet of flower girl patterned paper. I also used a bubblegum silk flower, bubblegum button and a white journalling pen.

we, myself and you - crop class

At the crop we started a mini book, with papers by Junkitz and a Tinkering Ink Peekaboo 6.5” square album. Now mini books aren’t normally my thing, because you need to be co-ordinated and have a plan, but I do the classes at my crop because they challenge me. By the way the classes are by the very talented Maria.

All I added extra to the class content was some Prima flowers, some buttons by Papermania Doodlebug cardstock stickers and some stamps (a journalling stamp by Studio G and some Doodlebug stamps) and brown Staz-On ink.

At first I wasn’t too sure what to do with the acrylic pages but I think it all worked out in the end.

scrummy classes 004 aka scrummy stripes

Beach Beauty (not really!)

The class on the Scrummy Stash Cafe Blog  this week is by Vanessa.

She wanted us to tear and do all sorts of stuff, like make our own flowers and stamp onto acetate. I did some... I didn’t tare, or rather I did, and didn’t like it so cut a straight line.

I used corrugated card (because if felt beachy) KI Memories and Love Elsie Card, American Crafts ribbon and bling from the Early Learning Centre!

Oh and thickers (which I won! - cucumber sprinkles glitter thickers)

scrummy secrets

Mr Fix It...

The challenge on the Scrummy Stash Cafe Blog  this week was to use hidden journalling.

Here a I used the Scrummy Stash Cafe April Kit (Wild Asparagus Boy Plaid, Steel Metallic Bazzill, Bazzill Just the Edge Blackbird, My Minds Eye Our Son twill ribbon), buttons from stash and my lovely black Jewelry Box Chipboard thickers from American Crafts. Oh and I also dry brushed with Whispers black ink for a distressed look.

I love Thickers...

home

If there is one scrapping essential for me it is white card. I love it, can’t do without it. I know it is boring, but there it is.

I used my fabby Karen Foster snap stamps on this one, with Papermania buttons which I’ve had an age, American Crafts greenhouse felt flowers, and American Crafts light blue eggnog thickers. I also used a small piece of American crafts ribbon, my trusty brown steadler fineliner, brown Staz-on and HOTP flourish stamps.

That’s it. Simple and easy.

scrummy classes 003 aka scrummy mess

 It was Samm’s turn to take the class over on the Scrummy Stash Cafe blog this week. The class was a sketch with the added challenge of using paint on the layout.

The paint is what caused all of the mess.

For some reason I decided painting freehand was the way to go (I know I should have worked out I would make a mess from the begining).

Either way, the sketch...

I used quiet a lot of stuff from the Scrummy Stash Cafe April kit (29th Street Market  Madison/Baby Blue, Collage Press Greyson Hall - Daydream and Malta, and Collage Press Journalling Tape in Ledger and some Bazzill the colour of which I can’t remember), Adirondack paint dabbers in Cloudy Blue and Snow Cap, Adorn-it gems, Prima flowers from the Got Flowers Milk Crate, American Crafts ribbon, a brown staedler fineliner, Doodlebug Bonbon ink, Anna Griffin Elsie stickers and buttons whose origin has been lost in the mists of time.

I should have painted onto cream, but it took me an age so I stuck with it.

newspaper

I was wondering what to do with this picture of Elmo, when I decided to make a faux newspaper page something which I have never seen done before.

Such a simple page, I prepped the ‘article’ in pages, and printed it onto Doodlebug Cream Puff Bazzill, something which my laser printer wasn’t really designed for. It smudged, but it’s a newspaper so I can live with it...

I made the ‘paper name’ with Doodlebug Simply Sweet Beetle Black cardstock stickers, the headline, was Rollerrink Black Glitter Thickers, I used loads, but I was lucky enought to win some earlier in the week so I don’t mind :)

The date is the date I made the page (because the picture was taken so long ago I have no real idea when for sure).

I think this is a fun page, I’m pleased with it at least.

If you love this idea and use it, just like any of my designs could you please let me know by leaving a comment and credit me where appropriate.

baby face

A quick layout, to scrap a funny story.

American Crafts white eggnog thickers coloured with KI Memories teal ink (I made a mess), adorn-it gems, and papers and arrows from the Scrummy Stash Cafe April kit.
