whoooo am i? {part 1}
categories: simply scrappin, Uncategorized
 |
| ok. so, i knew i wanted to do some scrappin with this new owl paper.
i knew i wanted to do something different, but i wasn’t sure what. so, i just let the creativity lead me… |
 |
| i decided to go with the question, “whooo am i?” do you feel that way too?
there are soooo many roles that we play, that sometimes i’m not sure which “hat” i am currently wearing. |
 |
| i used some new birds that i had bought yesterday. because they are embossed, i simply rubbed an inked cotton acrossed them, to accent the color. |
 |
| i wanted to use many layers. wanted it to be very detailed with embellishments.
i used some felt adhesive leaves, some flowers…ribbon, wood pcs…foam glue dots… |
 |
 |
| the scalloped yellow paper that i used as the background, i cut the corners off and added them at the bottom. for extra bling, i used my glitter pens to add detail to the items.
|
 |
| the painting of “who”, at the top, isn’t perfect, but neither am i. so that’s the layout so far.
it’s not finished. i still need to answer the question, Whooo am I? |
scraps of this & that
 |
here’s another tin…just to show you that any color theme works! not much supplies needed, (other than the candy & tin, you probably can make this from scraps you already have!).
they are sooooo quick & easy, yet look impressive.
|
 |
| same tin, (just different lighting). LOVE these owls! |
wonderful weekend
 |
i had such a wonderful mother’s day weekend, that i wanted to scrap-it first thing this morning. (the picture is somewhat blurred out….but it is taken by-way-of the rear view mirror…during our road trip saturday). (the paper, phrase tags, fabric tape and stickers all came from target–couldn’t wait to get them home and use them!)

sweet altered tins {mother’s day gifts}
 |
|||
| well, i finally used my first tin that i purchased a month or two ago, from papertreyink, (which i love! this company is the best!) anyways…..i’ve been waiting to create with them, and found mother’s day to be the perfect time.
their website and blog have many great ideas for these tins. |
|||
 |
|||
| i used a beach theme for this particular one, (thinking of the person it would go to)…i covered the bottom of the tin with one type of paper, then covered the inside bottom, with another type, (still in the same theme line).
on the top, i put a coordinating rub-on. each piece of candy, (hershey nuggets), are wrapped with a strip of paper in the same theme. i wrapped a piece of matching ribbon around the oustide bottom of the tin and also tied it with a piece of the same ribbon. |

happy national scrapbooking day!
a bump in the road {life @ 13} scrapped
 |
| i’m pretty happy with how this layout turned out. i just love this paper and am happy to finally have used it. |
 |
| the scrabble letters have been in my sticker album for a long time. finally using them. love how the title works with the road theme of the paper. |
 |
| i don’t know why, but i love this little skull rub-on. it’s from a set of rub-ons that are the same theme as the paper. |
 |
| i’ve had these numbers so long, i don’t even remember where they’re from….i like how they add more dimension to the layout. of course i enjoy using my favorite { } |
 |
| you can see here that i cut out pieces of the paper and attached some of them with foam dots, to add dimension. cutting out tiny paper items and using them for embellishments, is something that i’ve been reading about over on christine middlecamp’s blog. she creates amazing layouts. very detailed. alot of handcrafted embellishments that make her layouts ‘pop’. |
 |
| …just another view…..happy scrappin! |
