Stampendous Sticks With Scrapbook Adhesives



The Stampendous design team has really enjoyed hopping this week and showcasing some of the new April catalog products with great products from Scrapbook Adhesives. (To spot the new stuff easily, look through the What’s New section of our website or browse our print catalog online!)   

For my project this week, I've used the Donna-Salazar Designs with Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L Denim Art Journal.  I’ve decorated the cover and prepared 10 pages inside in preparation for our upcoming family beach trip this summer.  So, as you will see, it has pages ready to be used but none are complete.  Now I can’t wait for our trip so I can fill the pages with memories!

In an attempt to make things easier to follow along, I’m going to list the “ingredients” for each page/set of pages separately.  I know it repeats a lot of products, but, this way you’ll know exactly what I’ve used for each page.  I’m not going to include instructions for this post, as that would make it horrendously long.  I think it’s pretty easy to see what was done once you know what I used.


Here's what I used to decorate this journal:



Cover (repeating the cover from the previous post):
DecoArt® Media Fluid Acrylics™ in Cobalt Teal Hue, Cobalt Turquoise Hue, Primary Cyan, Translucent White
DecoArt® Media™ Modeling Paste
DecoArt® Media™ Gesso

StāzOn™ Jet Black Ink Pad by Tsukineko®/Imagine Crafts®
Miscellaneous Twine



Page 1:
DecoArt® Media™ Gesso
DecoArt® Media™ Shimmer Mister in Turquoise
DecoArt® Media Fluid Acrylics™ in Pyrrole Orange and Hansa Yellow Medium



Pages 2-3:
Liquitex® Airbrush Medium
DecoArt® Media™ Gesso
DecoArt™ Media Fluid Acrylics™ in Cobalt Teal Hue, Translucent White and Cobalt Turquoise Hue



Pages 4-5:
Copic® Marker - Black
DecoArt® Media Fluid Acrylics™ in Titan Buff, Green Gold, Cobalt Teal Hue
DecoArt® Media™ Gesso
Zip Dry™ Paper Glue by Beacon Adhesives



Pages 6-7:
StāzOn® Jet Black Ink Pad by Tsukineko®/Imagine Crafts®

Wicked Wednesday with Lemon Shortbread

It's Wicked Wednesday ATC Challenge Blog time and today our sponsor is Lemon Shortbread.  Our theme this week is Birthday Girl and I've used Cute Balloon Girl.



Here's what I used to create this ATC:

Lemon Shortbread© Cute Balloon Girl
Stampendous® Royal Heart Quotes Perfectly Clear™ Stamps
Copic® Markers
Memento™ Tuxedo Black Ink Pad by Tsukineko®
Memento™ Summer Sky Ink Pad by Tsukineko®
Classic Crest™ Solar White by Neenah®
Birthday Girl™ Collection's Dancing Queen by Bella Blvd.®
Zip Dry™ Paper Glue by Beacon Adhesives

Here's what I did to create this ATC:

Print image, color with markers and trim as shown.
Lightly edge trimmed image with blue ink.
Trim a piece of patterned paper as a mat for image as shown.
Trim an ATC base from opposite side of patterned paper.
Adhere image to mat and then adhere to base.
Stamp sentiment, trim as shown and edge with pink marker.
Adhere sentiment to ATC.

I really wanted to keep this one with a soft pastel look and lots of white.  Because it was so light, I used teal paper to photograph it against so it would show up more.  I have to say, I love the way this turned out.  She just kind of pops off the paper.

Thanks for stopping by!  I would love for you to play along with us this week.  Let's celebrate a Birthday Girl!  Have a blessed day!

Hugs,
Lea
