Scrapbooking Page with Country Home Stamp Set

Country Home Stamp Set for Scrapbooking pages

Thinking ahead to the photos I'll take over Thanksgiving, I decided to start some scrapbooking pages to save my holiday memories.  I started with an several similar ideas from Pinterest using the Country Home Stamp Set, and then personalized it with elements I wanted to include using several different sets of dies.          
  





I started with an 8" X 8" piece of Blackberry Bliss Cardstock as the base for my page.  I used Crumb Cake Cardstock to mat each of my visual elements.   I used the Country Home Stamp Set to create the image on the left side of the page.  It is stamped in Tuxedo Black Memento ink and colored with Blends alcohol markers.  




The  large block on the right side uses a piece of Blackberry Bliss from the Regals 6" X 6" Designer Series Paper pack.  Then a piece of Silver Foil Sheets dry embossed with the Tin Tile 3D Embossing Folder.   The leaf die cuts are Blackberry Bliss die cuts from the Seasonal Layers Dies.  A sentiment from the Country Home Stamp Set is stamped onto a Whisper White Stitched Nested Labels Die Cut.              

  



The bottom left image are die cuts from the Detailed Peacock Dies and tied with a Braided Linen Trim bow.  Next to the died flowers die cuts are embossed leaves from the Gathered Leaves Dies.  I inked the dies before die cutting/embossing the leaves.  

The Pine cones in the right lower corner and the branch are from the Beautiful Boughs Dies.  The pine cones are Crumb Cake and Soft Suede.  The Branch is Shaded Spruce.         

    





    


Next,  I'll make a matching page with a Blackberry Bliss base and Crumb Cake mats for my Thanksgiving photos, and I'll add sentiments to match my photos.  I love getting ahead of my needs.  It makes it so much easier to frame the photos I want to take over the Holidays and I'll have these memories for a lifetime.  You'll love creating your own holiday memories with the wide variety of stamps, embossing folders, and coordinating dies available in the Stampin' Up! catalogs.

Say Good Bye To Christmas Card Classes

  
These two classes will be my final two Christmas Card classes.  With the busy Holidays approaching, there are many activities competing for my time.  I'm hoping to get one or two classes in during December, where I'm hoping to highlight New Year's cards and Holiday crafts.  As a Stampin' Up! demonstrators, we're already looking forward to 2020 and the fun, new stamp sets we'll have for the rest of Winter, including Valentines Day, and then our Spring sets and new catalog.  We need to create our samples so you have enough time to see these new Stamps and coordinating products when the new year arrives.  You're likely to begin seeing sneak peeks from the new catalogs within the next couple of weeks! 

Join one these upcoming classes, to finish out your holiday card-making needs.

Long Class - Holiday Cards Class #13
If you're planning to send out Christmas Cards to family and friends 2-3 weeks before Christmas day, that means, your Christmas Cards should be in the mail during the first full week of December.  With fewer households sending Christmas Cards, your hand-made cards become even more meaningful.  Send meaningful Christmas Cards to your friends and family with these fun cards.  In this class create these 6 cards, which you can use as samples or templates to make more holiday cards on your own. You'll want to make sure you have all the supplies you need and enough time to complete your cards before December rolls around.
