Medallion Progressive Scrapbooking

Remember the scrapbooking page from this Recent Post well I decided to turn it into Progressive Scrapbooking and I think it worked out pretty well. I even demonstrated it at a workshop and it was soooo simple to do! So here is my A4 scrapbooking page...

As you can see Ive put the medallions on the other side and used slightly different hodgepodge hardware.

Then I created a 6x6 scrapbooking page. I love scrapping in this size you can not only use it for general scrapbooking like brag books and such but often they look stunning actually put into a square frame.

 

Last but certainly not least is this gorgeous card. I just love this Medallion Stamp to death!!!

12x12 Medallion Scrapbooking Page

Hi there all

I have a new favourite Stamp - MEDALLION!!! I am absolutely in love with this background stamp. I created this page to show off this fab new stamp!

I chose to use Kraft 12x12 cardstock, Chocolate Chip and Tempting Turquoise cardstocks dont those colours just look delicious together! I decided to use chocolate chip ink and threw in a bit of silver hodgepodge and chocolate chip ribbon! and of course that beautiful Medallion Background and Warm Words stampset. 

I love using black and white photos they just go with everything and look great. The picture was taken on my wedding day with my gorgeous bridesmaids Lizz, Danni & Amy. Ahhh almost 3 years ago gosh time flys!!!

Enjoy!

Progressive Scrapbooking Great Friend

I went to a team day a while ago and this is one of the projects we did. This layout was created by the very talented Janice Klass. I just loved it so much that I thought it would be great to expand on her idea so I held a Progressive Scrapbooking class.
So this 12x12 page was Janices' idea...

and could be turned into this A4 page (this is what we did on the day)...

and I came with this little 6x6 page below...

and finally this card...



I really enjoyed this particular class and the girls loved it too!
The great friend Stampset would have to be one of my all time favourite stampsets and this colour combination is just to die for (baja breeze, pink pirouette, saharah sand, whisper white and kraft)
Enjoy!

Progressive Scrapbooking

Hello There

I have been a bit busy lately - same ole story aye! When am I not busy you ask well maybe when Im asleep! No way Im a prolific dreamer at night I dream constanstly from when my head hits the pillow till I wake in the morning (usually exhausted cause I can never get any deep sleep done)

But I Digress!!! Enough about my sleeping habits lol!
I have a cool subject to share with you. I first came accross progressive scrapbooking at a Stampin! Up! Regional Seminar I attended last year. And to say at the very least it interested me. But Ive actually taken that idea a step further than what I actaully saw that day. I thought one day looking at my many card samples in my portfolio what would happen if I wanted to say take a card and make it into a srapbooking page so here the story starts.......

I made this card the other day....

and I thought Id love to take the colour scheme and the elements that make up this card and turn it into a 6x6 scrapbooking page and this is what I came up with...


So Ive used the same colour scheme, wheel and the dsp... Next I made an A4 scrapbooking page...


On this page Ive used the same technique that I used with the bird on the card for the heart. There is a place where you can now add journalling or a heading... Lastly the finished 12x12 layout I came up with...



Now Ive incorporated the whisper white c/s in aswell you could use the squares for photos or to journal in.
I hope you have enjoyed my shot at progressive scrapbooking and if you are lacking in a bit of inspiration get your cards out and morph one into a awesome scrapbooking page!
Here are the supplies I used
Bashful Blue, Chocolate Chip, Pumpkin Pie and Whisper White cardstock.
Sweet Always DSP
Always Stampset, Always in Bloom wheel
Whisper White Grosgrain and Bashful Blue wide double stiched ribbons
Scallop Edge Punch, various Circle Punches
Bashful Blue, Pumpkin Pie and Chocolate Chip Inks and Markers
Love Always

Finally some Scrappin!!!

Well Ive finally got some 12x12 scrapbooking pages to show yall... I had to wait to put these up because they were for the quarterly Klass Act Team Day I went to yesterday. I prepared 20 pages of 1 design, 4 different colour schemes for the girls to scrap phew... Its great to get together with the girls we also did some card projects that two of the other girls had prepared for us, Yay Chantell and Ali! I will post those on here soon. Well here are my pages the lovely girl in the picture is my youngest sister Amy *hugs* (I wanted to show that you can have the same layout for girls and boys but I just slid Amys picture in all of them and the photo matched all the pages which I thought was pretty cool!).

This first one above was the original I came up with. The colours I used were Close to Cocoa, Purely Pomegranate and Pretty in Pink. I also used the One of a Kind Stampset and Berry Bliss DSP.


The second one above is using the exact same colours as the first one but I just changed the colours around.

This third one above was my take on a boy page so I used Really Rust, Chocolate Chip and Sage Shadow. This time using the Wanted stampset and Outlaw DSP.



Last but not least for a boy page is the Creamy Caramel, Chocolate Chip and Sage Shadow combination also using the Wanted stampset and Outlaw DSP.
I had a lot of fun doing these and was pleased with the result.
Thanks for Looking
