Hello Stampin’ Friends,

Today I have a 3-D project to share with you that has a touch of scrapbooking flair! As the temperature drops, there’s no better time to embark on a journey of artistic expression, and the Bee Mine Suite is here to make it even more enchanting. This whimsical assortment features an array of “bee”utifully designed stamps & papers; from buzzing bees and honeycomb patterns to sweet sentiments that evoke the warmth of heartfelt emotions. 

I want to share and inspire you with this cute creation ….

Let’s start with what makes this a 3-D project … this cute little picture frame that I picked up at the $$1.25 Store! This is a cute picture frame to begin with and holds a 4″ x 3″ photo, so that is the measurement of my designer paper. These cute little projects make the PERFECT Grandparents Gift on Valentines Day and cute to have around the house as your 3-D Scrapbook. Friends love these too!

The photo montage can be easily moved into your scrapbook. I attached the bee and jar of honey with a glue dot (Just enough to hold it) and then using your Take Your Pick tool… you can remove it as well to go into your scrapbook. 

The sentiment, bee and jar of honey all come from the Bee Mine Suite.  I used the Circle Die from Stylish Shapes and the banner die from Nested Essentials to embellish my creation and to create the focal point! And yes, that is my Armani again. This one is going to his mama for Valentines Day ❤

Whether you’re assembling a scrapbook filled with cherished memories or working on a whimsical 3-D project, the Bee Mine Suite provides the perfect elements to bring your vision to life. I’ve got links to the products used today below.

Hello Stampers and Scrappers ~

Just a quick post today to share a page that I did with my Stamp-n-Scrap club.  We meet once a month and create one 12 x 12 page and a card!  The focus is generally on techniques and / or layouts.

I have to give a nod out to “Mary Fish” who’s design I cased (right center) to create this page!  Thank you Mary.

I love to create layouts that can be used over and over again… but with the addition of the photos (most important part) and some embellishments, they never look the same.

Punches are a great tool when embellishing your scrapbook page or a card.  Then top it off with a pearl or rhinestone!

Hope you enjoyed today’s quick post.  Let me know what you think.

Happy Stampin’

Hello everyone ~

Todays post is a scrapbook page that I did at my local Historical Society. We had a wonderful time, and I had my first gentleman scapper in a class! That means I made “history” too! lol

When working with historical photos or any photos for that matter, photos should always be the focal point (not the accessories)!

The page was created to “highlight” the photos … when working with historical photos or any photos for that matter, that you want to stand out on your page. Photos should always be the focal point (not the accessories!)

I did research to add to my page (journaling) which will brings the photos to life!  Journaling gives your page a “story” and helps future generations understand photos you are sharing.

Even though I kept the page very simple (as life was back in the early 1900’s) I added subtle techniques to help “age” and create a warm feel for the page.
