Eiffel Tower

 

I used the Tami Potter  Mosaic Moment method

 to create this scrapbook page.

Seven photos, taken from atop the Eiffel Tower, showing

a view in all directions,  were cut into one inch squares.

Then, I cut out a close up of the tower and  affixed with pop dots

to the bottom center of the page.

I am very please with the results.

 

 

Teapot Treat box

 

 August is my month to invite a group of friends to

our monthly gathering and I chose the  English Rose Tea

Room in Virginia Beach.  Thought these little teapot

treat boxes would be the perfect favor to give everyone.

 

 Found a free download template on Pinterest. made

a copy, then printed the teapots on patterned papers.

 Tweezer scissors worked best  for cutting round the  curves.

 

 

Once assembled, I filled with candies of choice,

added a fabric flower and tied with white ribbon.

 

One lucky gal will be chosen, at random, to be the

recipient of  a gift bag containing something

related to the event. Perhaps a beautiful teapot,

cookies and assorted teas.

 

 

Soccer Pages

 These are the two pages I  created yesterday  using

the Lanzarote stencil from AZZA.

Granddaughter is the goalie for the Liberty Girls

of Yorktown, Virginia.

 

 

 

 

After placement of the pictures and papers I 

shaded the other areas with a pastel pencil.

Visit by The Hermione

This two page layout made using the AZZA  Bilbao stencil. 

 Birds stamped using one from the Japanese Spring kit. 

The Hermione docked in Yorktown, Virginia June 6-8th, 2015.

This is a replica of the vessel that brought Marquis de Lafayette

to America. Other pictures taken of activities and

places in Yorktown.  The Hermione will also visit many

ports along the East Coast as she makes her way to Nova Scotia.

 



Azza scrapbook pages

 

 

These pictures of  our  visit to  Mont Saint Michel were taken

on our October trip to France. I used the AZZA Sofia-Lima

Stencil. Their templates are a great bargain as one gets two

per package so the  possibilities for page layouts are endless.

 

 

I  ordered my templates after googling AZZA and found

Lyn Holmes web site. She was most helpful in telling

me how to order etc. and when finalized, shipment

from Australia only took about ten days. There

are lots of page layouts on Pinterest done with

the many templates they offer.

First AZZA Scrapbook Page

 

I am so excited to post my first scrapbook page using

the AZZA  Bilbao template. The Cherry tree is made with

a stamp from the AZZA Therma kit using Wild Wasabi

ink pad from Stampin Up. The birdcage came in this

kit also, which I darkened with black ink for a wrought

iron look and hung from the tree branch with a thin

cord pierced through the paper. The cherry blossoms

colored using Peach (R32) Copic  marker.

 

I have seen this technique on Pinterest for some time and

finally found a consultant in Australia.   I was so excited

when my order arrived Thursday and could hardly wait

 for the weekend to do my first page. When I ordered

 my templates, I thought I was getting one template

 for each selection but to my surprise, each had two

 templates so the possibilities will be endless!!

 

 

Great Grandson

 

What a cutie! I'm sure you can tell there will be plenty of

him in future scrapbook pages.

 

After selecting my background paper, I used the Cricut

cartridge Animal Kingdom for the giraffe and Mini Monograms

for the lettering.
