Mothers Day Paper Crafting: 12x12 Scrapbook Page

Don't forget to pin me ._.

Firstly; Happy 6 months birthday to my blog, woo hoo.
​
​Well I have been a busy bee these last two days crafting and scrapping for the Torn Apart Paper Crafts challenges.  You buy in to a secret group for the bargain price of £17 and then are sent a scrapbooking kit of papers & embellishments, including a Stampin' Up pad and pen.  You then take part in a fun weekend of challenges, competitions and tutorials in the group and share your work in their albums ready for a prize giving on the Sunday.  I've had so much fun. Today I will share my 12x12 Scrapbook page and on Wednesday I will post my Pocket Letter, so be sure to subscribe for updates. You can however use any scrapbook paper.

12x12 SCRAPBOOK PAGE:

In the kit we has a variety of different papers and a set layout we needed to follow, but we could play around with it in any way of our choice.  I chose my colours and papers first to match the summer holiday we had as a family last year and chose a family photo from the holiday, the words on the yellow cardstock really do fit in with my theme too. It is quite important (I found) to gather all your elements and embellishments first, but you can easily add extras as you create. I wasn't sure at first whether I liked the finished result, but it has grown on me and I now like it (I can be a fussy bugger!).

In addition to the kit, I also used some spray ink and watercolour, so added some A4 watercolour paper which I trimmed down to a square. You can see the process and materials used in the video on my channel. ​Click below to see my Scrap With Me Video or click the link here if viewing from the email subscription.
