Summer Scrap Book Page





This two page spread is largly done on white card stock. I was able to make the 1 sheet of double sided Blue / gold paper strech over 6 pages. The use of the this paper identified the theme through the 6 pages as having to do with the Treasure Hunt. I used Thickers as the title for my page. And serval Creative Memories cutting tools were used. I used the tearing tool with black card stock to mat my photos. The Creative Memories Star punch is also featured on this page. This pages features many ways to use up scraps. The Postive/negitive features in the lower corners of the spread. Store bought themed stickers were also used to fill in the white space and enhance this page.

Here again I used the Creative Memories Letter cutting system along with the CM Primary Summer Power Pallet. I used the Ranger Perfect Pearls mixed with water and paint as directed and used a mini Mister to enhance the letters. It does not show in the picture nor in real life. I was largely disappointed in this technique. I have since learned other ways the perfect pearls can be used. I use them most in card making with the Perfect pearl pen when writing my sentiment. Watch for addtional posts on Rangers Perfect Pearls.

Use of Creative Memories Primary Summer power Pallet on a store bought background. I used the just released CM letter cutting system to do the title of Big Shoes. I cut the letter and inked the edges. Several of these pages were done at a weekend crop away. It was nice to have the help and input of friends. I was leary of transporting my Circut therefore it was nice to have the CM letter cutting system along. It was a fraction of the price of cricut and a lot less stressful to transport.

Use of the Creative Memories Power Pallet on a background of store bought yellow card stock. A good way to get more "mileage" from your more expensive printed papers. Again enhansed with the Viva Decor pens, my new favorite tool at the time. Just be careful of drying times when usuing these pens. Hand written name tages identifying who is in the pictre is a time saver. Not every page has in incorporate every technique and tool you own. Plus your hand writing is as much of a legacy as the pictures.
