Picture Perfect - Scrapbook Page

Hello, it's Liz here today and I have a scrapbook page to share. I scrap in albums that are 6"x8" with a mix of pocket pages and cardstock pages, like this one. I chose to use my favourite paper pad Simple Vintage Botanicals as the colours in the papers pick up the colours in the photograph. To add interest to the background of the page I decided to weave strips of the papers and plus I don't have much of this pad left!

The fun selfie stamps in the Picture Perfect set are a great fit for any scrapbook page that features a cat or dog! I simply stamped, coloured and trimmed around. The sentiments in the set can also double up as headings for a page. I stamped them onto snippets of the Vintage Botanicals papers so that everything on the page works together.

And that's another happy memory recorded! Thanks for stopping by today, happy crafting!

Hello, it's Liz here. As well as super cute characters I do love a punny sentiment! This 'Rooting For You' set by My Favorite Things ticks both those boxes. There's 'I Carrot About You', 'I Dig You', 'Thanks Bunches', 'I'm Rooting For You', 'I Love You A Whole Bunch' and, of course, the one I used. All perfect for a fun card.

The background papers are from the 'Simple Vintage Botanicals' pad, I love this pad so much. I think it might be the first time ever I will use up a whole paper pad! The aperture was die cut using the 'Garden Fancy' die by Hero Arts. I was tempted to ink a little colour round the edges but decided the white looked good against the papers.  I simply did some wonky stitching to add interest instead. I coloured the cute character with alcohol markers, the matching die for the stamp set is available here, and popped him on the card using foam pads.

Oh, and I happen to know this stamp set and matching die is on special offer at the mo', a real bargain! Thanks for stopping by today, happy crafting!
