Card/Photo Holder

Se você precisa de tradutor por favor veja no lado direito do blog.

Hi everyone today is Valentine's Day in Brazil and I'm participating of Creative Scrappers forum blog hop. And as I received Lucas official pictures from School I decided what a nice gift to send the pictures to the loved ones in a nicer way than just putting in a envelope this way they can display.
It's just a card size cardstock that is used as a display.

And the message going on the right side of the card simple and what matter most his picture and our message.


Next stop is Elisa who has a cute mini album.

Scrap with your Scraps #3

So here I'm again showing you my processing doing a page with my scraps this time I decided to use some sprays because the page is about Lucas doing some painting with his hands.

As usual the scraps and some stickers.

The layout is a 8.5 x 11 I started with a white page and I did a mask with a 4x6 piece of paper and sprayed first with orange than sprayed the starts with some hand made stencil I did with silhouette.

Some border punch this one is from fiskars.

Some more pieces of scrap on the background and stickers

Just some buttons and small details added.
Hope you enjoyed.

Scrap with your Scraps #2

Here we are again with another Layout with scraps step by step I hope this is helpful for those of you
that have trouble working with scraps because we all have them.
This is my pile

The colors of the photo had orange and red so I knew I had to grab some orange, red, green and purple. I use my color wheel to know that. Maybe I will do a video soon showing my process with the color wheel.

Starting to have a foundation. In this moment I put my picture on and off several times so I can see how I like it, when I'm happy than I glue the foundation papers.

This was the final foundation the only thing I added as you can notice is a think strip of paper just to give a anchor to the page.

Starting to get some embellishments, I have this felt flowers forever and need to start to use them.
And here is the final layout with just some extra touches and journaling.

Hope you are using your scraps if you are doing something similar please share in the comments so I can check it out. And thanks for the ones that always leave comments but I can never answer because blogger doesn't save emails. Maybe one day

Scrap with your Scraps #1

I decided to not buy more paper till I use at least 50% of what I have, I don't have drawers and drawers of paper but  some that I have , they are with me for a long time so I decided to start using them and also my scraps as of course they will increase as I'm using more paper.
So I thought would be fun to start this to help with those that are beginners and/or struggle with scraps.
I start collecting scraps that I think has the colors that go with my pictures with the help of my best friend the Color wheel. Yes I use a color wheel.

Next start to brainstorm positions here I used some fiskars punch and Martha Stewart punch.

Next some more layering to bring some blue from the photo and red. Notice this are all small strips of paper with the exception of the very last layer which a wider piece.

Embellishments now with some more left over from the pieces from the middle.And a tag.

 To repeat the design and keep the same flow buttons again and this stamp which I don't remember from who it is such a long time I have it.

Now journaling with one of my favorite stamps from the Stamp of Life lines2journal

And one more cluster on the top and last but not least the title.
I hope you enjoyed let me know if this is something you want to see more often. Thanks
