Lawn Dear

Practical Scrappers Ten Things Tuesday:Stamping

In my search to try something new with stamping I came up with this idea. I took a laser cut wood veneer, dabbed it in modeling paste, and stamped my layout. It makes a great muted design against the patterned papers.

~ Lawn Deer ~

 

When I finished stamping modeling paste all over my page the veneer was perfectly distressed so I slipped it behind my photos. Here's a close up of the honey-comb design.

 

Silas loves this Lawn Ornament at our local Nursery.

He just HAD to do a photo shoot with it.

WIRE

Today we challenge you to use wire on a project. I love using new and unusual items in my scrapping process so I embraced this topic fully.

 

I made wire circles by wrapping floral wire around various bottles on my scrap table and twisting them off. I attached the circles to my card with brads. This idea went PERFECTLY with the September 6th card sketch at Paper Secrets.

Supplies:

Paper, Layered Sticker:MME

Stamp:Sweet Stamp Shop

Brads:Recollections

Ink, Trim:CTMH

Wire:Floracraft

1st Day Bling

Practical Scrappers Ten Things Tuesday: Staples

We've done the staple feature more than once and this time I was really reaching for a new use of staples. I decided to hook them together into a chain and string them from brads like a banner. I used colored staples to add to my neon theme.

~ 1st Day Bling ~

This layout is also my entry for

 Paper Secrets: Sketch with a Twist Challenge.

The twist for this sketch is to add 5 or more buttons to the layout.

I added the flower centers as well as the

3 buttons to the right of the photo.
