Super Amazing Scrapbook Layout

Do you have SUPER friends?  I sure do and when I needed a photo to make a scrapbook page to show off the Build-A-Super collection, I knew this photo of my dear friend Lynn was just the thing!  She is an amazing person, mom, and friend, she really could wear this outfit everyday. 

This is one of the projects that I created for my display board for Fun Stampers Journey's Leadership Conference. I especially love how the rows of stars turned out!  And isn't that comic book paper just awesome!  But the photo of Lynn really steals this show, even her shadow looks fierce! 

I also made some coordinating pocket pieces that are 4" x 3".  

Now, I have a two page spread that will fit in my 6" x 8" album.  The little cards are just so much fun to make! A small canvas is less stressful, if you mess it up you are only out a little bit of paper.  And how simple to add a little washi tape and a sentiment to a photo and drop it in a pocket page, it's my favorite way to do memory keeping. 

On the far left is a picture of my daughter as a Ninja a few years ago, POW.  In the middle is myself and my friend Amber on Halloween, just being Super! 

I had so much fun playing with all the comic book/ super hero themed stamp sets, dies and paper that Fun Stampers Journey offers to make these pages.  And, they will always remind me that I have some amazing, super and beautiful friends. And my daughter as a Ninja, you know I will be sharing that with all future suitors. 

All Supplies are linked below.

 

Thanks for stopping by and letting me share a project that is near and dear to my heart. 

Scrapbook Page for submission

Recently Fun Stampers Journey announced that they are starting a Design Team.  It was open to all Journey Coaches.  I entered three projects, 2 cards and a scrapbook page. This is that scrapbook page.  I was inspired by the photo of my kids at the library with two of our close friends.  I loved the bright colors of the letters that the kids are sitting on. The Be Amazing color collection had the perfect colors for me to use to complete this page. 

To accent this page I added some die cut stars, which I covered in Journey Glaze.  

And of course I used Sparkle Silk to splatter on some beautiful shimmer. 

I added some detail to the photo using the Pocket Cuts Die set, I love the perforated border around the picture.  

The submission period ended and the selection process too.  The results are in and I am one of the top 20 selected to move on to round 2!  So, now I am creating new projects to submit and the group will be narrowed down to 5-10 coaches that will make up the final Design team!  I am so excited to be a part of it.  I will not know until August 15th if I have made the team, but I will keep you posted with all the project submissions for both rounds between now and then.  Check back soon for my two cards I submitted with this page. 

Here are the fun things I used to make this scrapbook page:

Let's Get Away with Project Life

Sharing some Summer Fun today with my friends at SSINKspiration. 

For my summer fun I am sharing two pages of a Project Life album I am working on of last summer's trip to Yellowstone.  I took so many pictures that I decided to do a 6" x 8" album of the trip.  

And the Let's Get Away Project Life Card Collection Kit makes putting this album together a BREEZE!  I was able to do this two page spread in less than 30 minutes. 

Since my pictures are not 4" x 3" like most of the pockets for these pages I was able to quickly and easily cut them to size with the Project LifeCards and labels Framelits. 

Then I added the photo to the pocket and used one of the photo filter frames that comes in the Let's Get Away Accessory Pack and on top of that one of the element stickers.  Easy, fast, cute! 

I also used the Let's Get Away Stamp set.  All the coordinating products make this pages so fun to make, because you don't have to rack your brain to think about what to use! 

On the buffalo picture pocket I stamped the saying "never stop exploring" in Black StazOn ink, right on the page protector. 

On the Yellowstone card I stamp the camper and car at the bottom.  It really finished off the card with a nice pop of color.  I used the alphabet stickers that come int he accessory pack to spell out YELLOWSTONE!  Adds another bit of visual interest since they are card stock thickness and stand out a bit. 

Here is a look at the Let's Get Away Bundle, in which you get the Card Collection, Accessory Pack and Stamp set. 

 

Let's Get Away Project Life Bundle - $34

 

And I got a really good deal on an album to put them in, it's the Espresso 6" x 8" Project Life Album from Stampin' Up for only $10! 

Now to add some more pages to this album!  

Watch this video to get a look at all the cards and accessories in the Let's Get Away Bundle and see some other pages made with it.

New Scrapbooking Club!

Welcome Stampin' Friends! 

I am starting a new Scrapbooking Club!  And YOU are invited! 

Each month we will be getting together to make a two page spread that fit a 12" x 12" album.  

I am very excited about this class and about creating something that will be meaningful to my family.  A unique work of art that will tell my families stories.  

Another great thing about this class is that I am doing all the hard work for you!  I will plan and design the pages.  I will prep all the supplies.  You get to come and have fun, and put your pages together, adding your unique touches.  

Here are the pages we are making in my August Scrapbooking Club: 

Page one is a standard 12 x12 page.  Page two is made with our new 12" x 12" Divided Page Protectors. 

We will be adding lots of fun details to our pages! 

See the section with the caterpillar picture on it...

It holds up to seven pictures. I used the back of the cover for journaling. 

We will be using lots of fun, new products.
