Scrapbook Class

Yesterday I held a scrapbook class where we made two double page spreads.  This is one of them.

My husband and I don’t get too many photos taken just of ourselves, so when my daughter Sarah suggested a photoshoot I was all for it.  I had to persuade my husband a little but in the end it was a lot of fun and we got some great shots.  They were the perfect fit for these pages.

I used Basic Black as the basis for the page and added a circle of Whisper White to the left page.  The Real Red scallop trim was cut using the Tasteful Trim Die and the strip of Whisper White is punched using the Scallop Trim Border Punch.  The Real Red heart was cut using one of the Hearts Framelits and embossed using the Lacy Brocade Embossing Folder.  I punched a Whisper White 2-1/2″ circle and added it to a 3″ Circle of Real Red cut using the 3″ Circle Originals Die.  A little paper piercing just adds the finishing touch.

The Secret Garden flowers are stamped in Real Red ink onto Whisper White card and cut using the matching framelit, however, I did cut smaller sections of a couple of flowers to add to the centre and give a little more dimension.  Each of the flowers has a Basic Rhinestone for just a little bling.  The leaves from the Secret Garden stamp set are stamped in Old Olive and again cut using the matching framelit I used the now retired Timeless Type Alphabet to cut my title.

I love how the pages have turned out and so did the ladies attending class.

Bye for now, Kris.
