June 22-- Tin Foil Tags by Gail
June 24-- Scrapbook Layout by Sandy

Let's get started !!
Say the first word that comes to you when you hear 
"The Great Outdoors"...
CAMPING!
We are a camping family in the summer! Can't get more outdoors than that!

For today's hop post, I wanted to show an easy tutorial. We are using stamps to make a very easy and cute layout. Stamps are a great way to personalize your pages.

Easy Scrapbook Layout
by Sandy Hentzel

Materials needed:
Stamps
Ink
Cardstock
Paper Slicer
Adhesive
markers or pencils
(photos)

You can make your layout base any size. The most popular is 8x8, 12x12 and 8.5x11.
For my project, I went with an 8x8 white base so that the stamps will show up nicely.
Using color card stock, I decided I wanted a triple mat. HTe first one measures 4x6 and 
then the greens go up by an 1/4inch.

 After cutting out your mattes, place your stamps (clean) on your layout to give you an idea
of placement. You don't want anything to cover your photos.

Using your ink, you will then stamp your images. You can either stamp all your images in black
or you can use color ink like I did here. 

After I stamp my images, I used my Prisma Color pencils to color them.  I wanted to you the sentiment "Eat, Sleep, Camp" as an embellishment so I fussy cut it and will adhere it over top of the photo with some pop dots.  Stamps make great embellishments if you are stuck on sticker ideas.

And here is the final layout. All I need is my favorite photo of the kiddos camping last year and put it in the family coffee table scrap book.

I hope this tutorial inspires you to use your stamps on something other than a card.

My Favorite Craft Tools and Giveaway!!!

Hi everyone, Today's video is a fun one for me. Since getting back into crafting I have noticed that I am pulling certain items over and over again and thought it would be fun to share with you.

Fiskars AdvantEdge Punch System Review

Good morning friends, Carolyn here with a review of a new tool I just recently purchased.  Received a newsletter from Scrapbook.com recently and checked it out.  But I did not purchase from Scrapbook.com as it's out of stock, so went to another source, and it arrived this past Saturday afternoon. TIP:  Easy way to create borders for your scrapbook page layouts, or embellishing the page or creating edges for your cards.  Gives you ease of creating a border across the edge(s) of paper; and create a border strip and cut down to size you would like for embellishing a sentiment mat for a card or front of card. Supplies used: Fiskars AdvantEdge Punch System Fiskars' smaller interchangeable border punch cartridges - double scalloped edge   Fiskars AdvantEdge Punch System Here is a short write up about the system: The unique design of the AdvantEdge Punch System by Fiskars allows crafters to add perfectly aligned decorative borders and ribbons to any pr
