Xyron and Quick Quotes, Make a Banner Page

Hi everyone, Gabriela here today with a page using Club Q for this month with some help from my Xyron supplies. I made this page a banner page because of the adorable twine included in this month's Club Q. I also attended a quilt show this past weekend and decided to "hang" some of my favorites from the show on the banner. I started by choosing my 3 favorite pictures from the show and then built the page around that idea.


 

 Check out the video below to see how to put this page together.

I hope you enjoyed the video and you're inspired to make a banner page of your own. Thanks for stopping by, happy crafting.

Shell-Ebrate with Mermaids

Hi everyone, Gabriela here today with a card I made using the Anchors Aweigh Collection and a stamp I really love. I decided to make a mermaid themed card using the shell pattern from the Anchors Aweigh papers. I started with my stamp and then colored it in using my Copics.

Then I traced, colored and cut out my shell.

Then I used some of my chalking inks and a blender pen to color the top inside of the card.

I decided that I wanted to make the card a pop-up, so I attached some paper to both sides of the "shell" and attached the mermaid.

I added some glitter with my Wink of Stella pen in Clear.

Then I added some iridescent bubbles and did a little more blending on the inside.

Here is the final product.

I had a blast making this card and getting into this month's challenge! I hope you all do too!

Stamp & Scrapbook Expo 2016

So this was my first year going to Scrapbook Expo and I got my entire life from it! There were so many booths and activities! I had no idea what I was missing but now that I have seen the crafty promised land, I am already excited about next year. There is a Mega Make & Take on Thursday night and then an all day crop on Saturday and Sunday. The shopping floor is also open on Friday & Saturday and classes are offered on those two days as well. 

The break area and the crop.

The side with the vendors/exhibitors had lots of product but also lots of space to move around and be comfortable. 

The shopping floor. 

I went with one of my coworkers and it was also her first time, so we wanted to try everything so we did a Make & Take with Fun Stamper's Journey and Richard Garay was there! We made this super cute Christmas tag and even got a free stamp. 

This is cool and it only took about 15 minutes. 

Cool stamp and it was free. 

I also spotted Quick Quotes at the expo. 

I had a fantastic time and bought a bunch of amazing products that you can see in the photo below!

Expect to see some videos soon of these amazing products in action. Happy crafting!!!

Scrapping with Coldplay

Hi everyone, Gabriela here today with a page I loved doing. I went to see Coldplay in Chicago last month and I knew I wanted to scrap the concert and use some bold colors. I started by making a mini pocket album.  I cut my paper at 12" x 6" and scored at 1.5" across and 3" vertically.

These panels will be taped together.

Then I added a background and my letters.

  
I chose a picture from when the band was performing "Yellow" and adhered the mini pocket album to the page.  Inside that I placed the ticket stubs and a journaling card.

This concert was absolutely amazing and to be honest, I will probably scrap it again :), happy crafting.
