Sunday Scrap Page: Italy

The page for today is the opening page of my vacation diary.

Tomorrow you can see the front of my diary.

For this page I have used:

Clup Scrap National Parks June 2015 papers

Club Scrap Destinations July 2010 sentiment

Michael Strong circle, alphabet and mini bird stamp.

Tim Holtz Rays stencil

Chocolate Baroque Echoes of Italy stamp

For the sun and the rays, I used Fossilized Amber distress ink

(one of Tim's new colors). I used it with a blender tool

for the rays. For the sun I stamped it and embossed it with

clear embossing powder. For some extra shine I added a 

few tiny sticky gemstones.

The mini bird is stamped and embossed with copper 

embossing powder and cut out and added with foam tape.

The letters are stamped on green paper with white embossing powder

and cut out with a punch. This way  the Italian colorsof the flag

come alive in this page.

This sentiment is embossed with red embossing powder.

Now this is finished, i can go back to the inside of the book.

I am sure you wil see more soon.

Thanks for looking!

Have a creative day!

Sunday Scrap page: May Flowers

So here I am,back with my Sunday ScrapPage.

Yes,sometimes life gets in the way and you just

don't have time to make one.

The theme May Flowers was easy, I had so many

flower pictures. Love to take close-ups of

nice blooming flowers in my garden.

But....as we were on vacation last week to Istanbul,

I used two pictures i made there for my page.

Papers and big sentiment stamp are

Club Scrap's Hydrangea papers and stamp.

The other stamps...the flowers and the honeycomb stencil

are by Michael Strong and is called

Hannah's Busy Bee setand you find it here.

Before adding anything I decorated the yellow paper

with the honeycomb stencil by using a blending tool

and Club Scrap's orchid hybrid ink pad.

Some flower stamps are stamped and colored

as decoration on the paper and others I have cut out

and added were I wanted them to be.

This time i did not print the text for my page,i thought

handwritten text looked more appropriate.

What do you think?

Have a creative day!

Merry Christmas

With this card I want to wish all my friends

a very Merry Christmas 

and hope you all have a wonderful and blessed time

with your family and friends.

Have a creative day!
