Awe...Isn't he cute! Seems like it was just last year he was in Preschool! He started 5th grade & is excited to be in the highest grade in his school. I guess he's "cool" now because he is one of the oldest! Pulling pictures like this out now is one of the reasons that I don't scrapbook conalogically. It's so much fun to pull these older photos out & ooooh & ahhh over them (maybe even cry a little because they are growing up so fast!) He's already asking me about Middle School. Jarred slow down will ya!
These "back to school" pages were created with a new paper kit "Typeset" from the Fall/Winter Catalog that was released on August 1. I'm really enjoying this paper pack. It's colors & style will go with any age or boy/girl. Plus as an added bonus there is beautiful generic patterns on the back of these B&T Dous. Wait until you see what I did with them. (Pages to be posted soon!)
I've been researching a new technique "clustering" I spent some time scouring the Internet & magazines for ideas. Our new Corrugated chipboard shapes are perfect for this. I'm having sooo much fun with them. There are 48 different shapes & sizes in a package. You can ink them, color them, paint them, stamp on them & more. Plus I love, love, love our new "Typeset Canvas Compliments." You know why??? Because they are not a sticker! They are printed on canvas and have awesome texture! What a great price too, $5.95 for 2 yes that's 2, 6" x 12" sheets.
As some of you know I find it hard to use stickers. I just don't like the texture. When I do use them I sand them, ink them, stamp on them & layer them so they look more like an embellishment & not a sticker. Otherwise they are so "flat" & one dimensional. That's why I so love these "Canvas Shapes!" They add instant detail & color to everything you use them on! Great for pages, cards & altered items. (especially teacher gifts!) Check out some of the stars, journaling spot & alpha cards below.
Join us on Friday Sept. 23rd for may workshop with this paper pack. We'll be creating 4 layouts & learning new techniques.
