Stampbook Saturday

Hello, hello There She Goes Groupies! It's Jenny here, fashionably late of course;)
Today I have a stampbook page to show you, that was inspired by this card, by Trendsetter Tobi Crawford....

First of all, I love this set Out of This World! And it was perfect for the pictures that I had in mind. I also loved the layout of her card, and figured that I could translate it to a 12x12 canvas, which is my usual size for scrapbooking (I likes me alot of pictures;) I loved that she incorporated stars (also one of my fave things- I have 4 star tattoos!), the shape behind the image and the banner sentiment.

Here is my Stampbook page! You'll have to excuse the over exposed look of the pics. I had to print them out at home, which always gives me poor results;)

These are pictures of my two oldest boys and their cousin (the biggest one at the back is Ryan, the little one in the orange shirt in front of Buzz is Jake...and Brody, my nephew in front of Ry) getting their pciture taken with the legendary Buzz Lightyear (or Buzz Lightbeer as my 2 yr old calls him;) They all love Buzz, so this was a big moment for them!!

Here is a closeup of the little space dudes...the aliens remind me  of the ones from Toy Story...you know the ones...'the claw is our master. The claw decides who will stay and who will go'....

I followed the same general layout as Tobi, using a grande nestie behind my main pic, and instead of dp behind the picture, I used another picture of Jake and Buzz. MFT star die cuts keep with Tobi's starry look and my journalling was printed on a vellum banner.

Hope that you enjoyed my Stampbook page and a look back at that amazing card from Tobi:)

Stampbook Saturday - Karen

Hello and happy Saturday!  This week, the super fabulous Chupa has inspired me with a gorgeous card using World's Best.

What is a Stampbook Page? A stampbook page is a scrapbook page created using stamps and inspired by a card. Each week we create a new stampbook page to give you ideas on how to use your stamps in a new way and hopefully inspire you to catch up on those family photos you've been meaning to scrapbook.

This is the card by Chupa that inspired me get creative this week:

I just adore this layout and the papers, but switched out the papers for Lost & Found Blush from My Mind's Eye.  This is a photo of my youngest at our Mother's Day Tea last year for her preschool class.  I'm a sucker for her huge brown eyes and sweet smile and she actually looked at the camera, so I stole a moment. 

I still used World's Best for the stamped flowers and added a little die cut branch underneath.  I sewed around the borders of the layers and then attempted to distress the edges.  Not the greatest job there, but you know, I'm not a distresser, so I'm still in process with that, LOL! 

I stamped the flower 6 times with Memento Rich Cocoa and then cut out the different layers of the flowers and sponged the edges with Memento Angel Pink and secured them with a rhinestone brad. 

Thanks so much for stopping by!
Karen
