TIME Two Page Premade Layout - Dark Vintage Inspired 12 x 12 Scrapbook

Happy Wednesday! Time for a layout! 
This layout is a 12 by 12 double page layout.
Here's a picture of the pages side by side...

This is the two page layout side by side. As you can see there are four photo mats and all the embellishments are vintage inspired. There are two journaling boxes. What I did was layer the base on the background in a dark charcoal color and then placed the photomats on that. I hand drew and cut out the bird and then added my flowers. The are made out of sheet music. There are also buttons with baker's twine in the centers sewn through.

Shabby Mother's Day Card - 3 dimensional - Fun Colors

Okay, my posts are back to back today :) Sorry.... Unless you like all the ideas! lol.... Well, this is the last one for the evening... and it's for a Mother's Day Card that I just listed on etsy tonight! 









If you're here then you're on the right track! Time to remember our mother's! 

This card measures just over 4 inches by 6 inches and is embellished so sweetly! I've added trims, lace, buttons, silk flower, leaves, tags, twine, and hand aged the edges. 

I've created the front on an individual piece of cardstock and then have sewn it straight to the card. With this many embellishments, I wanted to make sure that it was VERY secure. It is. 

The inside is also embellished. On the left there is a purple panel with a layered heart and on the right, I've left blank for your own words. If you would like me to stamp Happy Mother's Day in the center, I would be happy to do this for you. Simply send me a message when you checkout in the "Note to seller" section. I also added purple scalloped paper to the top and the bottom for pure embellishment fun!

Okay! Don't forget to make your Mom a Mother's Day card! 

Happy Cardmakin'!

Bird Tags. Vintage Inspired with Brown and Cream


There are 8 of these double layered cardstock tags. I 

stamped a bird in the center of the manilla colored cardstock 

and then layered onto a rich cocoa brown. I the added 

double faced satin ribbon to each. They measure 2 inches by 

2 inches. 






I really love the look of these. These are one of the (many) that I made a few for myself too! lol. 
I've started a little basket for all my own!
And I also create a few extra for the freebies that I include with my orders. 

Happy STAMPIN', Scrappin' & Craftin'!
