March DT layouts

My Design Team kit this month from Scrap Attack Scrapbooking was filled with Cosmo Cricket papers - "Material Girl" and a piece from "Garden Variety" lines. I also received a bottle of Plum Pudding Shimmerz Spritz - a great way to add some color to papers and embellishments. I did some masking, painted the paper flowers with it and sprayed it on a texture stamp. I loved working with this line and know you would too!

SSU 5 #4 Getting Messy with Alcohol Inks

Have you purchased some of the Ranger Alcohol Inks, but never knew what to do with them? During the class at Scrap Attack Scrapbooking, Getting Messy with Alcohol Inks Nadine showed us several techniques on ways to use the inks on our layouts and cards. I used some Lettuce, Eggplant and a bit of metallic green to create my camouflage piece for this layout of my BIL at Disney MGM Studios.

SSU 5, #3 Bring on the buttons

For the 3rd class we were to use at least 5 buttons on our layout. I used some MOD buttons I'd gotten from Scrap Attack Scrapbooking and attached them to the Kraft Kuts by Fancy Pants.

SSU 5, #2 Paper flowers

For SSU class #2, Nadine gave us tutorials for 6 different paper flowers, most of them using our scraps. I want to try them all! This is flower #1, using strips of paper.

SSU 5, #1 chipboard creativity

The Scrap Attack Message Board is hosting {SAS}sy Scrapbooking University. They started February 15th and are be posting a new tutorial every other night. The 1st class was Chipboard creativity - we were to use naked chipboard, embellish it and use it on a layout or 2 cards. I painted the snowflake white then stamped and heat embossed the flourish with silver.

February DT layouts

This month I worked with the wonderful line of "Bric-a-Brac" by Scribble Scrabble, along with some SEI Moravia, Prima, Rose Moka, Chatterbox and Hambly. Such wonderful colors - perfect for a variety of layouts. One of the fun extras in my Design Kit this month was some "Green Olive" Shimmerz Paints. I used it on the edge of the distressed paper, flowers, to create a border on the shaped cardstock, to darken the Prima Say it in Crystals "Devines" Gem Stems, change the color of the chipboard and to add a bit of shimmer to the alphas.
