National Scrapbook Day Week Long Events!

Hey, everyone!

Can you believe this month is rapidly coming to an end? Do you know what this weekend is? It's National Scrapbooking Day!!! How fun is that? I am so excited! In honor of NSD, some of us Angels at Paper Wings are having a week long celebration of events featuring different ways to incorporate stamping with our scrapbooking! I am going to start the week off with a really fun Progressive Scrapbook Page! I'd love for you to make one of these, too! If you are new to stamping, scrapbooking or both this is a really great way to get started doing both! For the seasoned stampers you can use this project as a stepping stone to create your own beautiful layouts as you embellish as much or as little as you want!

Here is how I built my page:

First I trimmed my photo to 5” x 5½” then I cut my designer paper to 6” x 6”. I used The Angel Company’s Winterberry paper (V-903).

I placed my photo in the center of an 8½” x 11” piece of cardstock. I used The Angel Company’s Premium White Cardstock (V-290). I used the Sprigs stamp set (T-2676), the one with stars, in Palette Hybrid Reflection Blue ink (TT-205). I stamped one sprig on the top left corner of the page and one on the bottom right corner of the page near the photo to frame it. I stamped “our son” with The Angel Company’s Scriptybet stamp set (T-2722) in the same color ink.

I popped out a circle tab and oval tab from The Angel Company’s Essential Elements (A-11). These were mounted on The Angel Company’s Winterberry paper. The oval tab has “You sweet little thing”, from The Angel Company’s Hey Chick stamp set (T-2260), stamped in Palette Hybrid Reflection Blue ink. The round tab has “Love You”, from The Angel Company’s Circle Sampler stamp set, (T-2691) stamped in the same ink. I used a chipboard bracket from The Angel Company’s Essential Elements and inked it up in the same color, as well. The sentiment is from The Angel Company’s You Are stamp set (T-3021). Place on a 12x12 cardstock base and you are done! It truly is so fun and simple to do! Leave me a comment and let me know what you think of this layout. I'd love to see yours, too. Just put the link to your project in the comment section and I will go check it out! There are some really fun stuff coming your way this week! Don't miss tomorrow's StampTACular Tuesday Challenge with me and Christina! Wednesday is my Inspirational Day where I share a scrapbook page with you all! I'm also going to share some pictures of my kitchen since it is almost finished! I hope you'll hang out with me again tomorrow!

Hugs,
