When I looked at the Abigail Rose 12″x 12″ Designer Series Paper, there was one design that I knew I wanted to use for a scrapbook layout. It is the sheet that looks like a vintage ledger page.
Here is the layout –
I strated by mounting this piece of DSP onto a 12″x 12″ Petal Pink cardstock to give the page reinforcement.
Then I cut a piece of Petal Pink cardstock to 6-1/2″x 4-1/2″ as a background layer for a photo. I partially stamped the large floral image on the base DSP layer and then calculated where to stamp the ‘rest’ of the image on to the Petal Pink cardstock. I used Early Espresso ink for these stamped images.
Three more large flowers were stamped, coloured with Stampin’ Blends and then die cut. As soon as they dried, they were bent and crumpled a little. Stampin’ Dimensionals were positioned on the back. Then I positioned them on the page, as you can see.
Finally, I used the totally amazing new Alphabest Bundle – Alphabest Stamp Set and coordinating Best Label Punch. It was so quick and easy to stamp and punch out the ‘congratulations’ for this page.
The vintage ledger appearance of this DSP designed page is fantastic.
I can see this layout being used for a graduation scrapbook page and I know that I have some wonderful photos of both our daughters at their respective Bachelor’s graduation ceremonies.
This was a wonderful page layout to create. I will need to make a second one so that each of our daughters have the same graduation memory.
Tomorrow is Technique Tuesday and tomorrow I will be colouring with bleach.
Until then, happy stamping.
