Stampin' Up! Zoo Review and I create a Giraffe Scrapbook Page

I have been participating in a 52 layout challenge over at The Scrapbooking Haven, and this week it was to scrapbook a ''collection.'' I collect giraffes. They have been my favourite animal for a long time, and slowly, people realised, and gave me giraffes... I have a bunch of stuffed toys including one a friend made me, bookmarks, key rings, a pillow, and a painting my best friend from high school painted me (she is crazy talented!). So, I scrapbooked about my collection

The coloured picture is a photo of the painting I received off of my friend, the other is a giraffe I bought from the zoo. I have used a Kraft base, and torn some giraffe paper my mum bought me when she went to Melbourne a couple of years ago, and some woodgrain paper. I have layered on some ruffled ribbon and a border punch. The patterned paper flower is from my friend Kelly from Kel's Kaszazz Kaleidoscope (Hi Kelly!) and the giraffe is from Zoo Review, I stamped him on to some worn looking patterned paper, drew around his outline with a Stampin' Write Marker, and then fussy cut him out.

Stampin' Up! Brights Designer Series Paper and Timeless Type Sizzlet and I create a Scrapbook Page

Hi Guys, I'm back with the promised scrap book page! This is another one for my nieces scrap book. I'm loving scrapping her pictures, as I can use lots of little cute embellishments!

I have used a 12x12 piece of Crumbcake (Kraft) card stock, which I have sponged around the edges with White Craft Ink. I have cut some scrap strips of Brights Designer Series Paper in Old Olive, Daffodil Delight, Real Red and Tempting Turquoise. I then staggered them on the base card and added a die cut doily. The photo was attached then with my hot glue gun, I attached a bunch of little embellishments (below) The butterflies were cut out of some scrap acetate (from some packaging), using the Big Shot. I then embossed them using the Vintage Wallpaper embossing folder and some stickles to the wings. I added some small alphabet stickers and cut some letters using the Timeless Type Sizzlet from Tempting Turquoise.

I am entering this into the Kraft It Up! challenge which is to use bright colours :)

Stampin' Up! Scrapbooking using Timeless Type in 2012

Hi guys! I have a scrapbook page to share today. It's a great way to start the new year...

The photo I have scrapbooked is one I took on my mobile phone of myself, just to show my new glasses I think it was... I really like how the photo turned out, so I printed it out and decided to scrapbook it. 2012 is going to be as big year for me, as I have decided to take control of my weight loss and look into gastric sleeving surgery, so this page is dedicated to the first steps I will need to take this year to get the ball rolling. I have used papers from American Craft, and October Afternoon, as well as Thickers and alpha's from Kaisercraft. I have cut out the 2012 using the Timeless Type sizzlet (again) and glittered them up. I also added a few basic rhinestones to counter the bling :) 

Below, I have added a few close ups :) 

I am entering this into the Just Add Ink Scrapbook challenge, which they will be running monthly, which is to include a first or one... Secondly, I am entering this into the new challenge Daring You to Scrap which was to use scraps to create a background. I actually only used scraps apart from the base layers, so I have a few less scraps in my pile and finally into the Unstampabelles anything goes challenge
