PS26 #16: Club Scrap Extraordinary Scrap Page

(repost from my "other" blog)

Happy Saturday!

I'm finally catching up on my Project Scrapbook26!
I have a page to share today...
I used a sketch from SketchNScrap #87:

And here's my take...very linear...
I'll add a photo of my hubby and me that a friend took last weekend. Just waiting for the pic!

I used mostly plain cardstocks, blue pearlescent paper and a patterned paper. I flicked some Walnut Ink for added interest.
I stamped and heat embossed (in silver) the "medallion" on the left...then, layered with the blue paper and a cutapart from the Woven Strands Club Scrap Deluxe Kit.

Some of the details:

I also added an embroidered doily and a wooden embellishment...I chose to leave it as is, but you could paint it to match your colors.

Supplies:
Woven Strands Club Scrap Deluxe Kit
VersaMark
Silver Embossing Powder
Heat Gun
Black Pen
VersaMagic Tea Leaves ink pad
Walnut Ink in green (Tsukineko/Imagine Crafts)

Challenges:
1. SketchNScrap #87

Have a nice weekend!

PS26 #15 + Sketchabilities

Happy Monday, crafty friends!

I am really behind on my Project Scrapbook26!!! Like a MONTH behind!

For PS26 #15, I used the sketch #144 from Sketchabilities...

And here's my take on the sketch:

I have a wedding to attend this weekend, so I thought I would have the page ready, then...I just have to take and print the photos that day, adhered them on, frame it and I'll have a gift in no time!

I used patterned papers with silver foil, 3-D stickers, and Prima flowers.

Challenges:

1. Sketchabilities #144

2. House of Cards Aug Challenge: Metallics

Have a nice week!

PS26 #12: My Crush Blog Hop

(I completely forgot to post this...)

Hello,

Welcome to the CTMH Summer Crush Blog Hop!

If you came from Nikka's Blog, you're in the right place!
If you want to start from the beginning or get lost along the way, see the complete list HERE.

This post is part of my Project Scrapbooking26 (PS26#12)!
I planned to post pocket scrapbook pages with embellishments today,  but since I'm participating in the CTMH My Crush Blog Hop, I'll have to postponed that...sorry! =(

This will also be my last Blog Hop with my fellow CTMH consultants...I'll drop as a hobbyist consultant end the month...I purchased too much stuff! Now I have to use it up! =)

For this hop, we're using My Crush books and Assortments...here's my project:

I'd like to link it to:

Word Art Wed #186: Anything Goes/Family Friendly

I used the BlueBird book and Assortments (layered papers and stickers).
Shapes and "Oh Happy Day" card were cut with Artfully Sent Cricut cartridge. I heat embossed the flowers in Neon Yellow and the branches in green. I added paper flowers and pearl gemstones on flowers.
I trimmed the 3x4 card a little bit, rounded the corners again and sprayed it with a metallic green mist.
Black patterned paper mat was cut with Artbooking Cricut cartridge and I added some silver washi tape here and there!

Your next stop is Pam's Blog!

I have 2 pages to share with you:

I'd like to link one of them here:

No embellishments here! Just photos and cards! It takes more time to print the photos, than to put them together! =)
