Raindrops on Roses Scrapbook Page Holder

Happy Wednesday everyone!

I have a fun project today using the beautiful Raindrops on Roses Collection from Heartfelt Creations!  I bought this 6" x 6" Scrapbook Page Holder at Michaels and thought it would be perfect for the 6" x 6" designer paper blocks in the collection!

Here is the holder showing the cover decorated with lace, ribbon bows, and pearls.  I used the beautiful Raindrops on Rosettes image and Raindrops on Roses Die behind it for the front cover.

Here is a close up of the image that I stamped on Solar White Card stock and colored with pencils and mineral spirits.  It's been a very long time since I colored images with skin and I'm definitely out of practice!

 I just love the beautiful colors of these designer papers and tried to color the image to match.  You can see the two new dies behind the image, a green oval shaped lacy die and then two of the other die cut with white.  These dies are so beautiful and have so many possibilities to create with!

These are photos of the individual pages I made with the designer papers.  Each is different and made with the card fronts, tags, and journals blocks from the papers.  Very quick and easy to put together!  You can always add embellishments after adding your photos!

Be sure to visit the HC Blog today to see what the designers have for you!

Graphic 45 Baby Gift Set

Hi there!

Today I have a baby gift emsemble that I have been working on to give to a dear friend.  There is a tri-shutter card, chipboard mini album, and matching gift box to hold the album.  These are made with the Graphic 45 Little Darlings Papers and Chipboard Tags.  (You can click on the photos for a closer look.)




The card is made using the tri-shutter tutorial on SCS here. 

The mini album was created based on the Little Darlings Mini Album Project Sheet on the Graphic 45 Website here.  The base for the album is just an inexpensive chipboard album from Michaels that measures 5" x 6 1/2".  Here is the front cover decorated with the papers, chipboard tag, and lots of ribbons and trims:

Here are the inside pages which show the pockets for tags, photos, and/or journalling.  I made die cut pieces in different shapes and added some chipboard tags and cute photos taken from the papers.

 

 

 

 

 

The back cover:

This is the gift box I created for the album to be kept in.  I used a basic box making technique, adjusting measurements to fit the album.  This shows the box closed up with the ribbon on it that slides off.

This shows the box without the ribbon on it.

Products used:

Stamps: God's Blessings (Stampin' Up)
Paper: Little Darlings Collection (Graphic 45), Natural White (Neenah), Baja Breeze (SU), Coral (DCWV), Dark Caribbean Coral (Color Mates)

My Forever Family Album - Heartfelt Creations

Happy Wednesday everyone!

Today I have a special photo album I made using Heartfelt Creations' January Release Countryside Evening!

This is the front cover...
 

Click on the photo for a closer look...

 

 

I stamped the corners with the Petite Floral Swirls and colored them with pencils.  I added some liquid pearls and Posy Patch flowers that were stamped and cut.  The center sentiment is cut from the matching designer paper.  The blue lacy piece peeking on the right side is from the Decorative Blossom Corner Die that goes with this collection.  I add a bunch of fibers and ribbons to the key rings and a charm, then a bow to the sentiment.

 

These are picture of the inside pages.  Each page has a pocket containing journal blocks and sentiments from the designer papers that you can add pictures to.  I also decorated some of the pages with assorted stamps.

 



 

 

 

 

 

 

 

This is the back cover.  I used the designer paper for the base and the sentiment is another block from the designer papers.



 



 

 

 

This is a view from above...

 



 

I hope this gives you a little inspiration of some of the different things you can do with these papers, stamps, and dies.  This makes a wonderful gift for someone special and is actually fairly simple to make!  This chipboard book I used for a base is from Michaels' $1.00/1.50 bin that I just covered with paper!
