Four Seasons Spring Scrapbook Workshop Layouts 1 & 2


Here is my take on the first two layouts in the Workshop from CTMH. As some of you know, I love to distress papers. This time, I decided to distress the edges of my papers with sandpaper. I used 3D Tape for some of the stamped images and stickers. The inks used were Avocado, Capri, Flamingo, and Lemonade. I also used the Citrus Blend and Pale Pink Blend TriBlend Markers. I will list all supplies at the bottom.


















On the second layout, I also used Capri ink to edge distress the dovetailed title. The photo on the left page is raised up with 3D tape, as is the "Here Comes the Sun" sticker on the right page. 


I can't wait to look through my photos for just the right ones for these beautiful layouts. Hope you enjoy these as much as I do. If you have questions, please comment below.


Hugs & blessings of joy, 

Barbi

Happy Sunday

 Happy Sunday everyone, 

I hope you are all having an awesome Sunday. I'm sorry I have been away from posting for quite some time. But my plan is to get back into it. So please check back often.

This has been a crafting weekend for me. I was able to spend most of yesterday with friends for our monthly get together. Some of us scrapbook, others make cards, a few do diamond dots. But we all have FUN, FELLOWSHIP and FOOD. We all bring something to share food wise. We spend time working on our own crafts visiting and just enjoying being together. 

Today I am spending time in my craft room getting ready for this month's scrapbook workshop. I am using the Four Season's Spring paper collection and coordinating products. The colors are absolutely beautiful!























Here is the kit I am using to create with, I'm mostly following the workshop directions with a few changes. If you purchase the kit from my website I will send you the changes I have made. My changes are mostly distressing and the way I cut things to save on paper to be able to create more.

I hope that whatever you are doing this weekend brings you joy and happiness.
