So... hence the delay in getting this tutorial up. Better late than never I say.
I hope my South African friends are all enjoying the long weekend, and have braaied up a storm today. My hubby braaied us some delicious meat, just what the doctor ordered ;)
So here is the second layout I created with the September kit from Scrapbook Studio. I am so happy with the way this one turned out!!
STEP 1:
I gather all the elements I
want to use on my page. In this instance I changed the color of my photos to
black & white, as they didn’t match the patterned papers I want to use. I
do this fairly often! I am doing a sports themed page, so I grabbed both the
lovely “teresa collins” stamps included in the kit.
STEP 2:
I spray some Mister Huey’s
Color Mist in the color Leaf Green onto a piece of cream cardstock, I like the
effect of spraying mist onto plain cardstock, it gives it a bit of life!
STEP 3:
I decided to make some
embellies from the stamps. I used some of the Glossy Cardstock that came with
the kit. This is the first time I have embossed and used Tim Holtz distress ink
with this cardstock, and it goes on like a dream!!
STEP 3:
I stamp the image with
VersaMark ink, and then add white embossing powder. Here is the image before I
have heated it.
Here is the image after I
have heated it. I don’t have a fancy heating gun, so I just use my toaster to
heat the image.
STEP 4:
Sponge some Distress Ink onto
the image. I used the Tim Holtz Distress ink in the color “Faded Jeans”.
STEP 5:
Cut out the image. I followed
the same procedure with the other “Teresa Collins” stamp in the kit. I plan to
pop up both the stamped images with foam tape!
STEP 6:
I fiddle with my photos and other elements until
I find a layout I am happy with. I cut out some of the lovely card images from
the “Cheer ‘em on” paper from Webster’s Pages, using pieces with blue in them
so I can add a little bit of blue to co-ordinate with the blue stamped images!!
I use my Silhouette Cameo to cut out the word “athletics”, arrow and the stars. 
A side-on view so you can see how lovely the
popped up embossed stamped embellies look on my layout!!
This really is the most wonderful kit, and I still have LOADS AND LOADS of product left after creating these last 2 pages.
REMEMBER - This kit can be ordered by just e-mailing sales@scrapbookstudio.co.za with September DT kit in the Subject Line.
I will be back with another Scrapbook Studio tutorial soon!!
Smiles,
