Scrapbook Sunday #28
I used this weekend’s sketch for my scrapbook page.
The page base is a 6″ x 6″ piece of Chocolate Chip cardstock.
The designer paper from Always Artichoke Prints and Fall Flowers Pack were cut in 2 1/2″ x 2 7/8″ and 3 1/4″ x 2 7/8″ pieces and taped to the card base. The (long neglected) Argyle stamp from All in a Row was stamped in Chocolate Chip over all designer Paper edges.
I cut the photo down to 3 1/2″ x 5″ and layered it first on a 1/4″ bigger piece of Chocolate Chip, then Bashful Blue cardstock. The title is from Many Happy Returns and is stamped in Chocolate Chip on a 1 1/4″ Whisper White circle. That circle was layered first on a 1 3/8″ Chocolate Chip circle, then on a bashful blue scallop circle.
For my journaling I rounded one edge of a 7/8″ x 2 1/4″ strip of Whisper White with my 1″ circle punch. I added journaling with my Chocolate Chip marker and added two Pewter brads on the left hand side.
I know my scrapbook pages are very simple. But with only having a 6″ square space to work with, it’s hard to add a lot of stuff. I like the focus of my pages to be the photos I am scraping, not all the cool stuff I used to make it.
