August stamp camp layouts




Believe it or not it's me again! Thought I'd show you the layouts for my August stamp camp. All product used is Stampin'Up! Saw a 6x6 layout using the torn paper for the sand and sea and Pick a Petal stamp set for the surf boards and thought I would adapt it to a two page 12x12 spread. These are photos of my girls on Dollymount beach in Dublin, Ireland, looking for shells. They had a great time. I took lots of pictures and plan on putting together a minibook of our trip to Ireland.
This is the second layout. It's titled 'Good Times'. I plan to add the words 'Let the' before 'Good Times' and then 'Roll' after it but thought it would work better this way, more flexible. This is the first time I cropped photos into a circle. I like the look and think it goes with the theme. I used the corner rounder with the guard removed to make the scalloped border. I can't wait to get my hands on SU's new scallop border punch. I placed an order from the new catalog but it still hasn't even been picked yet!!! I'll be holding a new catalog Open House early September and will have lots of new products to show and hopefully tons of samples too if my order gets here in time so I can get busy creating!!!
Well I must scoot as the girls have a friend coming over in 45 mins and they're not dressed yet and the playroom is a mess. Take care friends :o)

Long, long time no post :o(


Wow, I really do need to figure this blog thing out. Sorry to anyone who may have stopped by in the last three months and not found any new posts. I am hoping once the girls start Kindergarten this September that I might be able to get my act together and become a better blogger (I can't get any worse now can I!!!)


Today I'd like to show you last month's pages for my scrapbook stamp camp that I hold in my home once a month.


The 'Rock Stars' layout could also be used for 'Fourth of July'. I used my little Epson PictureMate printer to print my pics. I love that little printer :o)


Here's the 'Thank You' cards I made for Ciara and Tara's (my twin daughters) 5th birthday, using PapertreyInk stamps and SU cardstock, paper and ink and also the scallop punch.

I can't seem to get rid of this last sideways picture. If anyone knows how to do this can you let me know. Have a great day :o)
