Scrapbook Pages

I decided to do some scrapbook pages, actually a friend asked me if I wanted to swap pages for scrapbooks and I said sure, I need a little motivation to help me get things done.
These are the three pages I did today. I will have to do Scrapbooking a little bit more.


I got the decorative paper in a RAK box for the halloween page. I used SU Boolgie Eyes stamps, and some googlie eyes my DD bought me for Mothers Day.
The "Happy Halloween" is cut using my Zoobaloo Cartridge on my Cricut at 1 1/4 ". This was a fun page to make. Its the one I am going to swap. I used Basic Black ,Pumpkin Pie, a discontinued purple from SU, The lighter green from the Michaels variety package called Botanicals, and Whisper White. I colored the images with my water color pencils and an H2O painter after stamping with Stazon Jet Black. The ribbon and the Taglet stickers were clearance from last Halloween, and the bat button is JesseJames buttons. The brads are Queen co, making waves. I used my 3/4 circle punch to trim the black cardstock I stuck the taglets on and then punched 1/16th punch inthe center for the brad. Iused my SU tag punches for the spider image & matting, and my CM Sqaure punch the large opening to cut the images out and then mounted on the cardstock and trimmed to about 1/8".
The next page I used my "Walk In My Garden" cart and cut the cone flower out of Pumkin Pie. And the center a Textured light blue cardstock from a package I cant remembered where I got it. The tag is from the designer paper set mentioned later. I used a lightblue grosgrain ribbon and a large orange striped brad I picked up at Target on the tag. I covered the tag whenI took the picture. I need to remember to take pictures before I put them in the album and journal.
I added a section for journaling that my DD can do when she gets back home. I like the Decorative Paper (PC superslab rob and bob studio) it was a christmas gift my DD's recieved from their Aunt, and they reluctantly let me use it, but they know they use my stuff so I think it all evens out.



The last page uses the same decorative paper and some Stickers form the same package. I cut the same textured cardstock with my CM square punches and trimmed it to make the picture corners. I hid the journalling but it is matted with some complimentary DP from the same set mentioned earlier.
I used Whisper white to mat the pictures and for journaling I drew straight lines lightly with a pencil and used my SU Brocade Blue marker to write with. Then I used a white polymer eraser to erase all the pencil lines. I love the white erasers, they are a life saver.
Well Until later ... Happy Stamping!
