Flowers or Spring Blog Hop

Hi Everyone! Welcome to the April Scrapbooking Global Blog Hop! This month the theme is Flowers or Spring. Thankfully the weather has changed and if finally feels like spring around here. I can't believe that just a little over a week ago we had snow in April, the ground was white. Today my daughter wore shorts to school and it was 5 degrees! Weather in Chicago-land.

For this month I choose to do Flowers. I got a new stamp set last weekend at the Stampin' Up! OnStage event, and I thought I would use it for my page this month. It is called To A Wild Rose. It is a really pretty 2 step stamp set with a big beautiful rose, leaves, and pretty sentiments. There is a great matching die set too. For this page, I focused on the big flower and leaves. The photos are from my grandmother's 100th Birthday party. She loved roses, so the set is perfect for her. She also loved pink and pearls. This page is pure grandma.

I started with a base of Sahara Sand, and added a strip of cut out flowers at the top and more at the bottom from the Petal Promenade Designer Series Paper. I stamped Sahara Sand Flowers on the Sahara Sand background, and stamped more of the roses to cut out and add as accents on the page.

The Happy Birthday die is a nice size for scrapbook pages and so that it wouldn't get lost on the floral background, I added a piece of Whisper White cardstock cut with a new die collection called Nested Label Dies.

Scrapbooking Global Blog Hop

Hi everyone! Today I am participating in a Global Blog hop with my Facebook Friends from the group Scrapbooking Global. We are a group of Stampin' Up! enthusiasts who decided we needed a place to share our scrapbooking ideas or questions. If you are interested in joining our group, I hope you do. We have a challenge on Fridays to get your creativity flowing, and lots of photos in our gallery to give you ideas on how to use your Stampin' Up! products on your pages. This is our First ever Blog Hop! I hope you enjoy it and get some Scrapbooking inspiration!

I decided to use the Colorful Seasons bundle on my Blog Hop project because it is just such a great bundle for Scrapbookers! The Bundle has images and dies for every season, and it is so pretty and versatile.

I love the pretty snowflakes and that there are three sizes. The fall leaves, cherry blossoms and summer images will get a lot of use on my pages this year as well.

I started out by just cutting a variety of snowflakes. I used Whisper White and Dapper Denim cardstock, as well as vellum.

I also used my Aqua Painter to make some that are multicolored. I just painted some Dapper Denim ink onto some Whisper White cardstock, then cut the snowflakes out. I love the random color I achieved on the snowflakes.

I used a card from the Memories and More Color Theory Card Pack to add a title. I used the 2 1/4 inch circle punch to cut just the sentiment out. I layered some silver ribbon behind.
To add a touch more silver to the page I also added some rhinestones to the centers of some of the snowflakes.

With all those snowflakes and the card pack on my desk, I couldn't help but make a card as well. I even used the card with the circle cut out as a layering piece behind my "Let it Snow" card!

I hope that you like the project I chose for this Blog Hop! You can continue to follow along to the other blogs in the hop by clicking the Next button below! I hope you find some inspiration for your scrapbooking!! You can also join our Scrapbooking Global community on our Facebook Page.
