Elements of Style Stamp Set and Love Story Designer Series Paper Scrapbook Page
August 2nd, 2010When I saw the new Love Story Designer Series Paper, the Vintage Brads and the Crochet Trim, I ordered them right away. Usually this stuff sits around for a bit ’cause I’m not sure what to do with it. Not this time!
As soon as the order arrived, I pulled out these goodies and got to work. I love the end result. This page remains true to my personal style of simple with a punch…dontcha think?
The basic layout is one I use over and over…12 x 12 Cardstock with a couple strips of DSP. I added the flowers, the crochet trim and the tag from the Big Shot Two Tags Die (perfect journaling block) and I think it came out great! I did a little stamping with the Elements of Style Stamp Set on the background with Whisper White Craft Ink.
(I also made my Convention swap card to match the page and I can’t find a copy of it right now! I’ll post it when I find it.)
Wanna see the coordinating facing page for this layout?
It will be featured in my August newsletter that goes out the first week of August. So don’t miss out and put your e-mail address in that little box on the top of the sidebar! There’s also a really cool exclusive tutorial for newsletter peeps. Can’t wait to show you!
Not to mention how stinkin’ cute this kid is, right? This was right before her dance recital in June. We were "practicing" putting our hair in curlers. She just loved it, she’s so girly! And I’m so jealous of that hair. She’s got the best hair in the Pooler Household.

Catherine,
I love your 12×12 layout! Thanks for sharing the tutorial on making the scrunched flowers. The vintage card is also gorgeous. Some of “us” struggle with vintage!
