December 2010 Published Work

These projects were published in the December 2010 issue of ScrapStreet Magazine:







Letter to Santa

Supplies: Paper: Pink Paislee, Cardstock: Canson, Rub-Ons: American Crafts, Brads: Pink Paislee, Doodlebug Design, Junkitz, Ribbon: SEI, String: Making Memories, Marker: Color Workshop (P&M Products), Software: Adobe Photoshop CS4, Other: felt, thread. Tools: Decorative Scissors: Provo Craft, Other: sewing machine.

Design Notes: Instead of paper I used felt to make my own embellishments. I scanned my daughter's letter, resized and rearranged the printing and printed this out on cardstock. I made an envelope to hold the original Letter To Santa and some extra journaling. The envelope is also a photo mat. I turned the photos into B/W and used two different photo filters to change the tone and match the paper colors.

Christmas Card Photo Shoot

I was looking through my scrapbooks this morning, and I realized I had not shared this layout with you yet, with last year's photos:



Christmas Card Photo Shoot

I used my photo editing software to crop and align the five square photos, then I printed the photo strip out on photo paper. But you can easily just crop photos to a small square and adhere these next to each other to a strip of cardstock instead. For a quick and easy title, I used a rub-on for the word Christmas on the journaling spot sticker, and I wrote “card photo shoot” with a pen on the banner sticker. I “inked” the edges of the papers with a marker.

Supplies: Paper, Stickers, Rub-On: Crate Paper, Cardstock: Bazziil Basics Paper, Photo Paper: Epson, Pen: ZIG Memory System (Kuretake), Marker: Color Workshop (P&M Products).

Merry Christmas!
