Scrapbooking with Joy Clair and Bazzill ~

Hi guys!
Today it is my turn on the Joy Clair Blog.
I will be showcasing a scrapbook page using four different stamp
sets by Joy Clair and Bazzill cardstock.

I only had one picture so I layered different colors of Bazzill cardstock
 behind the photo, creating the focal for the page.  The cardstock has silver hearts
 on it and so perfect for this page.

The hash tag sentiments is a new set by Joy Clair called 2 Boss Babe.
  So cute and I love the hash tag.

Above the photo I used the Books of the Bible set.  Loving that I can
add scripture to my pages giving them more meaning.

This segment is showcasing the Hello Autumn (leaf) and God's Focus (banner) sets.
Stamps are a wonderful addition to the craft world.  Instant embellishments!!

Thanks for stopping by~

Inspirational Blog Hop with Joy Clair~ Day 1

Hi guys!!

What an exciting day one, the new stamps from Joy Clair are here.

Today we will be showcasing the stamps from the Everything Occasions Collection.
If you are following along you should be coming from Jowilna's blog.

I will be creating with the Best Dad Ever set by Joy Clair
 and using Bazzill cardstock.

This is a fun set that can be used for all kinds of craft projects.  The images would be great on a scrapbook page.  I created a mixed media type background and then stamped over it.  Distress Oxides  inks were used with the bottom tool border.  Water was splatted, over the stamped border, creating the blurred image.  Working with tools is messy!

The stamped images were embossed with black embossing powder and trimmed out.

The stamped images were than adhered to the card front with dimensional foam squares.

Bazzill & Joy Clair ~

Hi guys!
Joy Clair and Bazzill Basics are joining together to make some beautiful
projects we are also hopping along with the Coffee Lover's Blog Hop.

I have created a card set using the newly released Coffee And Jesus set by Joy Clair

 and some really cool pattern paper/cardstock by Bazzill Basics.

Simple in design, sometimes simple is just what you need. The Bazzill pattern paper
 is folded to create a card base.  I used the reverse side to create a card mat.
The sentiment was stamped on white cardstock and then matted on the card front.

The travel coffee mug was stamped out and colored with alcohol markers.
  The card was splattered with black ink and twine was added to
 the bottom of the card.

To create this card, the same steps were taken, I just reversed the paper colors
 making a cute card set.

Bazzill Basics mini album~

Hi guys~isn't this mini cute?  It was one of the classes I took while in Florida last year, with the Collins Group.   I have 3 more mini's to show in the up and coming weeks.  I finally got all of my unfinished projects finished.  Such a good feeling..

This mini uses school papers by Bazzill Basics and cardstock.  

I'm hoping to do a class at Craft Crossing on this ~ it is really a cute one!!!

Cards and a book to hold them~

 

This is a project I did in Florida {Collins Group Convention}:) I just got it finished in time to give it to my mom!!!  The class was taught by Joey Otlo with Bazzill Basics.  It is a  card holder book, has pockets in it to hold cards for each month. 

 

These are the cards that I made to put in the pockets, in the book.  The first one is a pop up card using the pop up die by Sizzix and the designer Karen Burniston.

 

This is how the inside looks with the pockets pages and the print out so you can add your occasion dates that you want to send cards on {or to}. These are Christmas cards but the idea can be tweaked with All Occasion or Birthday cards.

 

See ya soon!!!!
