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

Laughing Lola - Balloon Talk Boy's Card.

I make so many girl or feminine cards featuring flowers and pretty embellishments 

I wanted to make a card which was suitable more for boys or men.

I used the CTMH Stripe Embossing Folder for the background.

These are so easy to use - I have the Sizzix Big Shot machine as I like the extended base for longer pieces of cardstock.

I love the plaid design of the Laughing Lola paper and I think it has a more masculine feel 

and it pairs perfectly with the gold paper with the stripe design.

I added Lagoon and Black ink for the sentiments.

I put Durable Artisan Studs between the flags as again, they have a masculine feel to them

Ariana Card.

Oh I was so very happy with this card - I based it on the scrapbook layout shown on 

page 30 of the Spring/Summer 2014 Idea Book. 

I loved the layered paper technique on the layout so decided to do the same thing on the card.

I cut the scalloped the circle and the smaller circles using the Cricut Art Philosophy cartridge.

The words are from the Perfect Fit - Thanksgiving stamp set. 

I know it is hard to see but I have used the decorative tail of the turkey image to stamp 

along the bottom edge of the card in Buttercup ink - and again underneath the 

words on the small circle. 

(I hope you can zoom in and see it if the image is larger)

As the paper is so decorative and the scalloped edge of the Outdoor Denim piece and 

Scallop circle give even more design I have kept the embellishments to a minimum 

and just added 3 sparkles for a little shine.

Ballon Talk - Stamp of the Month

This is the fun Stamp of the Month card which we will be making at this months class.

The White Daisy cardstock is embossed using the new CTMH Dot Embossing Folder.

It also features the Washi Tape which we will add to white cardstock to 

make the colors really vibrant.

I have cut the flowers at 3 different sizes - 3/4", 1", and 1 1/4".

I have joined them together with a White brad. 

A piece of Burlap ribbon is attached underneath the flower.

We will direct-to-cardstock ink distress the Lagoon cardstock in the matching ink.
