Scrapbooking-Fall Fun

Don’t you just love the wonderful colours of fall and this page hightlights the colours beautifully! Fall is definetely in the air , my toddler and I went walking the other day and it was so fun seeing her play with the leaves. She couldn’t stop stepping thought the leaves and hearing the CRUNCHING SOUND they made. It’s too bad winter has to come following such a magical season! Can you tell I hate the cold?! I just love the handmade elements to this scrapbook page, don’t you?

Here’s a close-up of the chipboard pieces:

This chipboard piece was made using the BIG SHOT:

with the Leaves #2 die:

Did you know that you can glue designer series paper to scrap chipboard to create your own chipboard elements for your scrapbook layouts? Just another great reason to love the BIG SHOT! (The best glue for this technique is a glue stick as it will adhere all the layer!)

Scrapbooking Saturday!

Last night we had our awesome quarterly Demonstrator Diva Night. The ladies in my group get to earn this fun event of stamping, learning and getting pampered with pedicures or manicures!

We had 9 ladies attend and we all had a fantastic time! One of the attendees, Anne Morin, a fantastic demonstrator from Val Des Monts, brought some fabulous scrapbook layouts she’s recently done! Here are 5 AWESOME pages created by Anne using supplies from Stampin’ Up! and various other companies!

Didn’t Anne do a fantastic job?! I’d love it if you left her a comment to let her know!

Have a fabulous Scrapbooking Saturday! Josee

Easy Scrapbooking Page

Are you a scrapbooker looking for a quick scrapbook layout? Here’s a fun and easy page using some new products out of the Occasions Mini Catalogue.

Stamped by Michelle Sturgeon

This scrapbook page uses the new Friendly Flowers set with the Summer Picnic Designer Series Paper. This paper is so fun and cheery, if we didn’t have 10,000 feet of snow outside right now…I’d almost feel like summer is coming! The alphabet used is the Big Deal Alphabet.

Enjoy! Josee

Creative Scrap Page

This scrapbook page created by Sue Teed (one of my club members) uses the Creative Licence Simply Scrappin’ Kit from the last catalogue. What I love about the Stampin’ Up! Scrappin’ Kits is how all the colours in the die-cuts coordinate with the cardstock in the package. Everything is meant to coordinate beautifully and it really does make creating scrapbook layouts so easy.

All the cardstock in the packages included are textured which adds that special touch to your page.

Isn’t Sue’s son absolutely adorable!!

Thanks for sharing! Josee

Featured Scrapbook Pages

Family Scrapbook Page - Kim Assaly (demonstrator)

Using a sepia picture of her beautiful family, Kim really captures elegance here with this page. At the bottom, she has used the technique called Tag Punch Star or Tag Punch Starburst taught to us by demonstrator Tracie St. Louis (see Demonstrator Events for more examples). What a fantastic example of combining stamping and scrapbooking together - thank you so much for sharing Kim!

‘Capturing the Action’ Scrapbook Pages - Jackie Decarlo

Jackie shows us just what fantastic scrapbooking pages look like with these 3 pages which show off her husband’s cycling talent and his involvment in a bike marathon one hot August! Way to go hubby! I just love the pictures on the first page and second page cropped into squares for a super artistic touch! Thank you so much for sharing Jackie!
