No Worries Scrapbook Class

This is my favorite layout from our How To Books and I think it works just perfectly with this 'No Worries' paper pack,

This is my class for next month and I cant eat to teach it. I love the basket weave design on the cashmere paper and the stamping and matching embellishments are fabulous.

Ive used the stitch guide to piece the white photo mats which add a fun texture to them.

Hope you like it and I would love you to join my class xx

If you cant make my class and would like to make this for yourself - head over to my website at https://sarabatkin.closetomyheart.com/default.aspx to order the No Worries Workshop your way, matching stamp sets and the Green Triangles and I will send you the cutting guide for free :o) 

Fun Scrapbook Mini Album in a Box - Extravaganza 2014

Love, Love, LOVE this mini album in the CTMH Journalling Cards Box. Its is the perfect size for so many things and can be decorated in so many ways - I am so sad to see it retire at the end on July :O(

Here I added this fun flowered paper and added an adorable mini album inside it.
On the outside of the box I took one of the Base and Bling bracelets which i flattened out and added ribbon which I wove in and out of the bangle part.  I was still able to add the charms by looping them into the ribbon.

I hope you love it as much as I do & that it inspires you to create - Love Sara xxx

Ariana Workshop on the Go Scrapbook Layout

I have to say that I absolutely love this layout - It is based on the layout in the 

Spring/Summer 2014 Idea book which only shows a single page - but it is so pretty.

My dear friend Victoria worked on this one too and this is my version of what we came up with.

I love the Dimensional Elements which match the paper and in the WOTG

 you get the cool Black and Grey Epoxy Bubbles as well as the pretty ribbon bows.

On the Dimensional Element Camera piece I used l the silvery grey one Epoxy bubbles to 

fill the center of the printed image and then liquid glassed them in place to make it look 

like a camera lens. This photo does not do it justice.

I did put 2 photo mats side by side on the left hand page which allows 2 photos of 4x6 

or you could put one photo 8 x 6 in that area.

Again just like the card which I posted on April 2nd, I have layered the paper pieces 

and it is such a pretty technique.

Hope you like it too - Love Sara xxx

Explore Paradise Layout

Here is the 2nd layout which I made with the kits from Close To My heart - the green Skylark paper has a fun design which reminds me of foliage and I LOVE that Frog !!!

Hope you like it too - Love Sara xxx

Skylark Workshop On The Go - Scrapbook Class - March 14

Oh I just LOVE the new Skylark paper pack - it has to be one of my favorites.

This is my Class project for March - and I am so excited to teach it :O)

The center section with the bird lifts up to add more two  4 x 6 photo spaces.

We will be adding direct to paper distressing and using the scallop border punch along the Juniper Cardstock.

Adding the new Teal shimmer trim will be an optional extra.

I love it and hope you do too :O)

Laughing Lola Workshop On The Go Scrapbook Class for February 14

I have changed the way I teach my scrapbook classes so here are the photos of this 

month's class project.

It features the gorgeous Laughing Lola Workshop on the Go and the matching Dimensional Elements.

We will be making this interactive double layout which with its fold out section gives more room for photographs.

We will use Cotton Candy, Whisper and Black inks and the Scallop Border Edge Punch.

I am so excited to teach this class - Hope you like it too
