Wow! It seems like forever since I have posted any pages! I have a set of 2 double layouts that I did for a class that I thought I would share today :)
For both sets of layouts I used the same materials: chipboard tiles (FUNdamental Rings) from Technique Tuesday, Splash and Big Timber alphabet lower stamps also from Technique Tuesday; Snorkel pp (And the matching rubons in my layouts) from Cosmo Cricket.
Here's the first layout, pages side by side. I used photos from our recent Florida trip last month....they are of my kids and nephew at the Water Park that was a part of our Resort.
All the chipboard was inked with either cats eye chalk inks or Versacolor cubes. Then I stamped over most pieces with my Black Memento pad using stamps from the Splash set.
The corner chipboard is cut from the remainder of the chipboard wave frame that I didn't use. Brads are from Basic Grey (Lime Rickey collection). I did not use the extra rubons for my class in order to keep the cost down, but I still had leftovers from previous pages that I thought I would use up. (My girls from the class... there are a few sets of the rubons still left at the store)
Here is page 2. (Click on the photo for a closer look at any of the elements) I am in love with this huge outline alphabet that you can stamp & color, or stamp on any variety of pattern papers...Big Timber from Technique Tuesday!
On my store sample I also cut out in black a smaller "Making" on my cricut which was in front of the word "waves", but I just realized I forgot to add it on mine, oopps!!
Here is the other layout shown all together. The large loopy wave is actually 1 frame, but I cut it in half and then pieced the wave back together in order to spread it over the 2 pages. Its inked in a pale Celadon, then stamped over with 2 of the stamps from the Splash set in a darker teal.
I had meant to print a large photo for the focus of this page, but realized that I didn't take a single one that day with a landscape orientation. Urgh.
All papers and chipboard were edged with a black pad or inked with a black marker. Buttons are a combo of Creative Imaginations and Tres Jolie by My Minds Eye. I applied the rubons directly to the photos in this layout.
Last single page for the set. In my original sample for the store I added some fun glitter to the waves, but it made a bit of a mess since I didn't set it, so I didn't repeat the fiasco this time. I need to find a good way to secure my glitter for my pages!
OK, so thats it for you today! I am off to sneak in a bit of stamping time, then I am moving my eldest to his dorm room this afternoon. Yes, he's still in high school at UNCSA, but commuting has been a challenge lately, so I am giving in and letting go of my baby. Sigh.
Thanks for visiting today! -Cyndi
