Kaisercraft Sparkle! line

Hi, Donna here today for Inspiration Stations and I would like to share a fews things with you! The new Kaisercraft All that Glitters! line, how to use those Project Life Journaling cards on layouts and how to use sequins on scrapbooking projects. Here is a layout I did using the Kaisercraft line which can be found at Inspiration Station.
.

 

The first thing I did was use some Tim Holtz Distress Spray in two corners, I used the Tattered Rose just to darken the pink a little and yellow to bring out the gold! Second I pulled out 7 journal cards and positioned them around the center of the page. This is so easy to do and you don't have to cut into a 12x12 sheet of paper. You know how gold and silver are all rage right now, I cut a circle for the picture using the Silhouette Cameo. Just a tip, I always cut speciality paper such as gold paper upside down, only because it seem to not rip the paper as much. If you look close enough the right hand corner of the frame did tear a bit, but that was OK because I could cover it up easily enough.

 

 

These cards are great! They match with the All That Glitters kit and no need to use up all your 12x12 cutting small pieces of paper!

 

Then I started adding lots of stickers from the kit and bits from the Die Cut Cardstock Pieces pack. To make it sparkle even more, I randomnly placed some sequins around the layout as well.

 

 

More sequin on the butterfly. Check out the tutorial video below to see how I add sequins in several different ways!

 

Sorry about my big clunky hands in my videos!

Project Life Wedding

Hello, Donna here with a project I am working on for Inspiration Station. I am not a real big Project Life person, I like to focus on one or two really good pictures on a page, but I take and print a ton of pictures, and here is a way to add a lot of pictures to a page. So for my son's wedding album I took all the left over pictures and did some Project Life pages. Here are two that I just finished using MME's new line "Fancy That". This line is so pretty and a great way to use up those embellishments. In addition I made a Shaker box with a tutorial below.

 

Here is another page of the reception.

 

 

I made this little book to add additional journaling or a picture, a mini album in a pocket if you will.

 

 

And the tutorial....

Products used: MME "Fancy That" paper and embellishments Pink cardstock Bo Bunny Double Dot cardstock.

Universal Studios Hollywood, Project Life

Hi Everyone, Here is the some more pages in my Project Life 2013 California Adventure, TOday I have our trip to Universal Studios Hollywood. The first page is us coming into Universal.

Right away we went down the escalator to see the New Transformers 3-d and Jeffrey even got to meet one of the transformers. The boys rode the ride twice.

After going on the Mummy we went on one of my favorites Jurassic Park.

We then went on the awesome Studio Tour.

No visit to Universal would be complete without visiting someone from Shrek!

Ran into the Minons and SpongeBob too!

and those lovable Simpsons!

We ran into Lucy too!

And some pretty scary creatures from the past!

well, Scooby Doo isn't scary. Jeffrey had some great interaction with Beetlejuice, he was great.

Thanks for checking it out, still trying to figure out this Project Life, but I think I am getting the hang of it. Next stop DISNEY!
