Creative Styling Wednesday

Keeping the project within this month's stamp club technique, I used the Triple Stamping Technique to craft this project. I kept the colors simple and clean for this project.

Do you ever have color problems with your project? Deciding which colors go together in your project is really a personal choice and a skill that can only be honed through practice. But Stampin' Up! has a Color Coach that can help you get your project started the way you want it. Just pick a color to start and let the coach guide you with it's suggested coordinating colors.

My scrapbook sequence

Where do you put your photos that are waiting to be scrapbooked?

I put mine in a photo album. But even the simpliest looking store-bought photo album needs work. I covered the front of my photo album with a piece of chipboard and dressed it up with a the Timeless Portrait designer series paper then accessorized and stamped the rest.

I decorate my photo album so I can be inspired to pick up the album and scrapbook the photos inside.

So today, as inspired by the album cover page, I started my scrapbook layout with the Timeless Portrait designer series paper (as found on the retiring accessories list.)

With this layout, I wanted to highlight the sequence of tagging two "lucky stumps" at a temple in Japan. There's a saying where if you tag the stumps 100 times, your dreams will come true. Too bad I didn't finish the 100 tags.

Perhaps if I flip to this page 100 times my dreams will come true.

How do you organize your photos before they get scrapbooked? Pin It now!

Iron Stampers 5 minute card

As promised, here is one of the 4 reveals of the Iron Stampers project. Today I'll show you the quick and simple 5 minute handmade card. This card was made with the Elements of Style stampset. I decided to post this card first because it's the first day of spring today! Happy Spring!

How Iron Stampers works is that my upline gives 3 people a pack of pre-selected Stampin' Up! paper along with a pack of various embellishments. Our task is to try to use all the supplies given on every one of the 4 Iron Stampers project. This includes a 5 minute quick and simple card, a WOW card, a scrapbook page, and a 3D or altered item. Each player is given 2 months to complete these projects and we display them at our bi-monthly Stampin' Up! demonstrator exclusive meeting in Vancouver.
At the end of the meeting, a winner amongst the three players is announced based on votes.

And the results??!! I'll let you know when I'm done posting the projects. Stay tuned!
