Scrapbooking Global July Blog Hop – Rooted In Nature Summer Scrapbook Page

By | July 19, 2018

Welcome to our very first Scrapbooking Global Blog Hop and welcome to my blog. I am Eimear Carvill, a UK based demonstrator. I’m a fairly new convert to Scrapbooking but loving it so far and jumped at the chance to show you my take on this months’ sketch.  I chose my photo first and based my choice of supplies around this photo.  It was taken after we hung a swing from the trees in my parents garden. It should come as no surprise that I created a Rooted in Nature Summer scrapbook page. Here is the sketch we are all working from this month… and here is what I came up with… Scrapbooking Global July Challenge, Rooted in Nature Summer Scrapbook page, Melon Mambo, Old Olive, Summer Memories, Make a Difference, Stampin’ Up Scrapbooking, Eimear Carvill, www.stampincolour.com

Tips and Trick for my Rooted in Nature Summer Scrapbook Page

  • I almost always choose my photo first with the supplies and colours I use chosen to co-ordinate with the photo.  With a full range of 53 colours in Stampin’ Up’s palette, it’s really easy to colour co-ordinate your projects.
  • I started with my photo and cut it to the size I wanted and cut a coordinating mat in Melon Mambo to match with my daughters outfit. I have cut an identical sized piece Whisper White piece and Melon Mambo for the other side.
  • My title is cut using the Large Letter Framelits again in Melon Mambo and smaller pieces across the bottom though in matching widths.
  • I decorated the Whisper White pieces with the embossed leaves and I used the Tree and Leaf stamps and cut out the pieces with the matching framelits.

There is no journaling yet, but I’ve left a space where I will add my memories of this day. I have a few other photos of my other children trying out the swing for the first time, so will probably have a matching Memories and More page on the other side.
