My main reason for crafting is
scrapbooking but it seems I am always busy working on other things (cards,
school projects, altered crafts, and home décor) and never get any scraping
done. Well, I finally have another
scrapbook page to share. It is only a
one-page layout, but I absolutely love the look.
I just got the new “Good
Old Days” imagine cart this week and it is such a sweet set of
images. It is my current favorite.
Recipe for layout:
-Cut and print Background shape. I used a pattern from the Imagine cart Elise
(These papers coordinate nicely with The Good Old Days cart). I got the scallop shape from the CTMH
Art Philosophy cart.
-Print title on the background
paper. (I used CCR & Imagine for this
but a PC and large print works well too).
-Print and cut a top layer for
title in a coordinating color ( I wielded mine slightly in CCR.)
-Print & cut focus image. (I used the adorable birds on the new Good
Old Days cart).
I took the birds, deleted the
background, and had CCR print & cut them.
I pop-dotted them on the same image I had already printed on the background
pattern. The pop-dots give it a nice
dimensional look.
-Cut frames and corners on solid
card stock.
-Ink most all edges and glue down.
- Add a few embellishments. I used some brads, string, and a label frame.
- Add Photos (I will be adding
photos of my sleeping teenager) and
share with all!
All the other shapes and lettering
are from CTMH Art Philosophy Cart (my other current favorite).
I used the Circuit Craft room
(CCR) to design it all. If you haven’t
used CCR yet, it is a free on-line tool that is getting better all the time and
really enhances your circuiting experience.
For this project, some layers were only “printed”, while other layers
were “cut” or “cut & printed”. Again –
lots of versatility with my imagine inside the CCR.
This is beautiful! Love the colors.
