Scrapbook Club Projects

I {heart} scrapbooking!  And I love having the scrapbook club back in action cuz it helps me get more pages ready to go!  So here’s some ‘before’ shots of the pages for this month.  And hopefully VERY soon I’ll get some ‘after’ shots with pictures on them!

I used the new Night & Day Specialty Designer Papers as well as a LOT of punches on this layout.  I love how versatile the Baroque Motifs stamp set is as well.  Who would’ve thought it would be a great stamp set for Halloween??  But when I pulled out the Night & Day designer paper I immediately thought of Baroque Motifs.  Hope you like it too! 

Here’s the second layout for the scrapbook club members and guests.  Again, I used the Night & Day Specialty Designer paper.  This time I pulled out my Medallion background stamp, inked it up with Frost White shimmer paint and stamped it half on each page.  I also did a ton more punching to make that spider (scallop circle and photo corner punches) and used the Big Shot to get the Build a Bear.  I used a marker to color a toothpick Elegant Eggplant and used that as the holder for the Happy Halloween banner the little bear is holding.

Mini Convention Swaps

Along with our mini Convention today was the option to swap cards with other participants.  These are the fantastic cards that were swapped!

The Build a Bear one created by Amy E uses the new Build a Bear die, SU! Kooky Spooky Die, and the Night & Day Specialty designer series paper.

The pheasant card uses the awesome color combination of Soft Suede and Rich Razzleberry along with the new Autumn Days stamp set and To the Nines Specialty Designer paper.  Therese created this great card.

The mummy one was created by Dawn B and showcases a lot of tearing and sponging and some punches to create the eyes and nose.  Scary, huh?!

And finally the crab slider card, created by Cheryl N, uses the retired Crab & Company stamp set.  It also uses the new Melon Mambo card stock and polka dot ribbon.  Cute!

Aren’t they ALL just AWESOME??  Nice job ladies!!!  And thank you so much to all who attended today – it was great fun!
