Footloose Workshop on the Go ~ Hostess Club

I just love this paper and the idea of sunny days, beaches and vacations.  This workshop was lots of fun, I simply couldn’t get enough of it.

Featured WOTG layout ~ Modifications to the original:

• add a 1/8” mat in White Daisy cardstock, edge distress
• add one photo to the bottom left corner of the right page
• add round durable studs Z1706
• add green assortment Z1327

Hostess Request Bonus Layout ~ Imagine, Shadow p.114-115.
Extra product needed:

• base pages two additional Vanilla Cream cardstock
• Seaside Wooden Shapes Z1693
• Keepsake Urban Felt Alphabet Z1695
• Paradise Baker’s Twine Z1702
• Bitty Opaque Pearls Z1707
• Blue Sparkles Z1327

Bonus WOTG layout~ Modifications to the original:

• Use your Crème Brulée cardstock for piece B on the left page; this will leave you with one 5” x 12” to cut down to 5” x 9” for the right page.
• Add White Daisy Mats 2” x 2” photos (Cut 3 at 2-1/4” x 2-1/4”, you one for the Turtle).
• Add ten drops of Desert Sand re-inker and 5 drops of water to craft jar; dip tips of stipple brush in ink and use an inward-pulling motion to distress edges of all papers and cardstock (expect for White Daisy). Set aside to dry. Edge distress all papers and cardstock including the White Daisy cardstock.

Stella Workshop on to Go ~ Hostess Club

If you’re like me, the first time you saw the Spring/Summer Idea Book you just had to get this beautiful paper pack.  This is what I did with the workshop on the go kit.

Modifications to the original layout:

• changed the Cocoa base pages to B&T Duos
• used the decorative border instead of stamping the chair image
• double matted all photos with Cocoa and Lagoon cardstock
• added the Stella Complements Canvas Shapes

Modifications to the original layout:

• added the Stella Complements Canvas Shapes
• inked the DE heart instead of covering them with cardstock
• changed the middle piece B&T Duos

By changing the base pages from the first layout I was able to use them for the one. 


When I came across this sentiment I knew exactly which photo to use.  “ The best things in life are UNSEEN that’s why we close your eyes when we KISS!”

• Florentine paper

Spring is in the air, why not scrapbook you vacation or summer photos.  This is my take on the FLORENTINE, workshop on the go.  The featured layout was done up in Twilight cardstock bases.

February 2012 ~ WOTG ~ Hostess Club

This is my take on the Cruisin’ workshop on to go, using the “Take a Picture” stamp set C1440 and re-formatting the photos this is what I came up with.

Opaque gems were added to the decorative border to cover the road signs and arrows.  The photos on the left page were also re-sized.  Don’t let the existing layout limit your imagination, let your creativity run free.

This second layout is a combination of the artwork featured in the Spring/Summer Idea book. Look for them on pages 59 and 112.  I used the Tapestry Velvet Rub-Ons….. LOVE THEM!!!!

Rock the Block

This is a very cool project, it also makes a great gift for someone special.  The new My Creations^® Collage Cubes will be sold in the Spring/Summer 2012 Idea Book for only $14.95 but until January 31st you also get  the exclusive My Acrylix^® Rock the Block E-size stamp set for next to nothing; when you  place a $25.00 dollars order from the current Idea Book.  You’ll receive both for only $15.00.

By flipping the three bottom horizontal blocks, middle then top you can rotate between the four surfaces.  It doesn’t stop there, blocks have 6 sides.
  

Other materials used for this project:

• Kraft Cardstock ~ Z1375
• Tulip, Pear, Sky & Cocoa  Cardstock, Inks and Markers
• Cocoa Ribbon ~ Z1316
• Bonding Memories Glue ~ 1512

Julie’s tip:
Cut a piece of velum 4” x 6” (photo size used for this project).  Using a black marker, mark off a 2” x 2” grid (individual block size).  This will help you position your cut lines on your photo.

January 2012 ~ WOTG ~ Hostess Club

The following layouts were made using the Typeset workshop on the go from the Autumn/Winter 2011 Idea Book. I also re-created the layout from the Idea Book on page 16. This is my take on these layouts.

By using the back side of the B&T paper you can create a different look.

This is my re-creation of the layout in the Idea Book.  Using a few clever masking techniques you can change the look of any coordinating canvas, don’t let the pre-printed text limit your creativity.  You can find the template for this layout on page 94 of the Magic book.

Some times you really don’t have a ton of photos to scrap and this layout is perfect for that.  These photos really came together with this layout. You can find the template for this layout on page 122 of the Magic book.

This layout was inspired by a Regional Celebration workshop.  Use the cutting diagram on page 96 of Magic™.

• stamp set used:  Happy Clusters for the circle pattern and larger star and Love Life for the swirls and smaller stars.
• use up your Milepost shapes, I cut out a star from a larger piece.
• using the small star from the Love Life stamp it on your base page using Juniper ink then using your Bronze glitter gel cover the image.
