Winner of the 5 mini album giveaway!

SARAH MULLANIX!

Please email me your name & address and I'll get your prize to you real soon! :)

Thank you all for playing!

I finally managed to play with my embossing pads for my Big Shot (you remember, the one I purchased at Made With Love and brought back as extra luggage to France! LOL)

I made a very very small mini album, one that holds in your hand, very fast to make, perfect for portraits, landscapes, family photos, puppies, beach, mountains, well, whatever you want!

I had those 2 1/4 x 3 inches photos waiting on my desk to be scrapped and they looked perfect for this mini album.

For the embossing part, if you don't have a big shot or a cuttlebug (or any other machine that embosses), you can definitely have a look at Késia's article in issue 5 of {entreARTistes}magazine, or get your hands on the already embossed cardstock that you might find at your LSS (Cosmo Cricket, Jillibean Soup & Jenni Bowlin teamed up with Color Core for amazing embossed cardstocks).

If you do have a Big Shot, you can emboss any cardstock that you like then!

You need to gather those stuff to make the mini album :

• a Big Shot or cuttlebug machine
• embossing dies (bought mine in France but I highly recommend Made With Love as they have an incredible range of dies for your cutting machine)
• patterned papers
• stamps
• kraft paper
• stickers and any kind of embellishments
• a binding machine such as the Bind it All

Your mini album is so small that you might want to use all of your left over papers that you save in a box (yeah I know you keep them all in a box, like we all do!).

Cut a 4" wide piece of kraft paper that you will emboss.

Then cut all of your photos so that they are 2 1/4 x 3 inches and glue patterned papers on the back of each photo.

Bind all the pages together.

And now embellish! It's as easy as that!

 

For my cover, once it is embossed, I used a Catslife Press stamp that I bought in Italy and used Versafine ink. Then I glued stickers and my title.

 

 

I also used masking tape from the amazing Violet Gift Shop : I recently purchased lots of stuff from her and look at this cute self-adhesive doily ribbon!

 

I had to use this piece of self-adhesive Fabrips from Studio Calico : it's cool, uh?

 

LOOOOOOVE the green masking tape here. LOVE.

 

There you go! A fast, easy, cute little album :)

Check back here on Thursday for a new giveaway :)

Have a great day!

Two new layouts :)

hey there!

This weekend I participated in an online crop (only on Friday evening though as I had a friend visiting and the weather was perfect, so we thought it'd be better to go to the beach instead of staying in scrapping) :D

But I managed to make 6 layouts and here are two of them :)

I managed to play with my new wide format printer :) I so love it already!

 

Have a great day!

Some more Studio Calico layouts

I so loved my SC kit this month that I couldn't help myself making MORe layouts last week! I used the main kit with 2 add-ons : Linens & Lace and Trinkets (I will treat myself with Knick Knacks this weekend!).

 

this Punch used here.

this Punch used here and another punch I borrowed from a friend.

Masking tape from Scraptape.

And I don't know if you heard but Studio Calico is soon launching their new line : DOCUMENTARY. It is just divine! What I love about this new line it's that it's not only about travel, but you can both use them for your everyday life layouts, your boy and girl ones and for every single occasion you wanna highlight in your scrapbooks!

To me, one of the BEST travel lines EVER!

 

They're also saying BYE BYE to some of their great stamps : you might wanna hurry and get your hands on the tree stamp, the small wheel (one of my favorites!) or the flower !

 

And, for those of you who wondered where I got my hot air balloon stamp : it is HERE! :D

Have a great day!

5 mini albums giveaway!

Leave a comment here and you might win 5 new mini albums selected by little old MOI! :) Each mini album will cherish every single photo of yours :)
