Hello and Welcome to our monthly scrapping blog hop - full of fabulousness for you!!
This group of creative amazingness use only Stampin' Up! products for our scrapbooking - to inspire you and show you all the potential!!
Our theme for this month is all about Colour!!! This is super fun!!
The talented Delys Cram designed our challenge for us.
Soooooo, I love GREEN and AQUA colours, but mostly I use LOTS of green!! My page is a celebration of green and our greenery stamps and die cut products!! I've used Evening Evergreen, Soft Succulent, Parakeet Party, Old Olive and Mint Macaron. And these are only a very small fraction of the AMAZING arrays of green in our Stampin' Up! offerings.
When I started designing my page, I wanted to use this lovely photo and at first I thought, hmph, how am I going to use green?? Well in the end I think it worked out ok - as usual, my photos is taken outside near a tree - so green always works!! My base cardstock is very vanilla.
So, basically , what I did was pull out ALL my dies using leaves, and stamp sets too!! So I've used the gorgeous Natural Prints stamp set, with some Simply Succulents and Lovely You for the titles. The dies list is HUGE!! I used the Blossoming Happiness (for the edges pieces); Natural Prints; Delicate Edges; Designer Tags; Forever Flourishing; and Potted Succulents for the title labels.
The papers I've used are scraps from Layering Designs Vellum; Metallic & Shimmer 6" x 6"; Lights Aglow paper; Tea Boutique paper; Wonderful World paper; some Silver and Gold Foil 6" x 6" saleabration paper coloured with a blending brush; Evening Evergreen cardstock; Soft Succulent cardstock, Old Olive cardstock and Parakeet Party cardstock.
I've also used the wooden Textural Elements coloured with Soft Succulent Stampin' Blends; In Colour Opal Rounds; Soft Succulent Open Weave Ribbon and some Parakeet Party Metallic Woven Ribbon.
My page used lots of fun scraps and came together so easily really (after the first dilemma about colours and photos!!). I don't usually create pages with only 1 photo - so this was super fun!!!
