Share The Love: Hello Phone Card (1 of 3)

Last weekend, I finally had a chance to play with the Share The Love stamp set that is exclusively available in February. Over the weekend I’m going to share with you the three cards I made. The first one today, then another on Saturday and the final card on Sunday.

For all three cards, I choose the Georgie paper. Even though this paper has elements for a baby theme, it has some fun retro designs that I thought worked well with this stamp set.  Today’s card simply says “Hello” and features something today’s kids may not recognize: a rotary phone.

The phone and “Hello” speech bubble were stamped in whisper ink on white cardstock then trimmed out. To add color and dimension, I stamped the phone again on yellow B&T (printed) paper and trimmed out just the dial. Then I layered it on the phone using 3D foam tape. Finally I finished the card off with a splattering of grey gems.

This stamp set is really fun. The images are adorable and the sentiments fit many occasions.

Remember this stamp set is only available in February 2016 and the your purchase can help provide a life-changing operation to a child through Operation Smile. Click HERE to learn more about how your purchase supports this mission.

Be sure  to come back tomorrow to see my next card. Here’s a sneak peek:

Do you recognize this image?

Happy creating,

Hello, Life! Scrapbooking Summer Memories

Summer is officially over, but I don’t want to forget the happy memories made during my favorite season.

In August, our family visited the Missouri Botanical Gardens. In addition to all the normal beauty of this location, we were there for the Lantern Festival which included an acrobat show.

This Zoe layout captures the bright and cheerful colors of the acrobat costumes and the silk-covered lanterns. It also showcases the faces of some of my favorite people. 

I had way more pictures than would fit on this page, so I attached an mini-album to hold a five more photos plus a journaling card. I used three 3″ x 4″ flip flapsconnected on the edges so that it folds out accordion.

The bottom Flip Flap is attached to the memory protector so that the mini-album sits just above the photo in the bottom right corner of the page.

Here’s what the completed page looks like with the flip flap mini-album closed.

These layouts use the amazing Hello, Life! Scrapbooking stamp set that is only available during September that is filled with words to celebrate all the seasons of life. You can order a set for yourself on my Close To My Heart websitefor just $13.95. 

In addition to this one, Close To My Heart issued two other stamp sets for National Stamping Month. One is focused on card-making and one for pocket scrapbooking. You can check out all of them 

HERE.

I hope you’ve enjoyed seeing this simple layout made up of just paper and ink plus a great stamp set.
