Welcome back
This week I have been carded out as well as still waiting for my order to arrive so I thought I would look at some UFOs – Un Finished Objects. A couple of months ago I bought the gorgeous A Taste of Summer paper pack that was part of the National Scrapbooking month as well as the coordinating stamp set. I found some photos from when my children were young and the colours matched the papers very well and started to do the layouts and then got side tracked. So today I got them out and finished them. I did 4 layouts today but ran out of sunlight to take photos of them all, but I was very pleased to be able to put them in my album. I have used the Reflections How To Book for my inspiration.
I have cut all the titles out from the Artbooking Cricut cartidge and all the fruit has been stamped and fussy cut out.
I have used the Charming Chevrons stamp set and added a bit of sparkle with the coordinating sparkles chevron shapes which is no longer available. The title has been cut from both Sunset cardstock and White Daisy cardstock to help it stand out from the background paper.
The camera has been cut using the new Artistry cartridge in Slate and Hollyhock cardstock. I have also used the new Artistry cartridge to cut the Smile and Enjoy sentiments. These cuts are quite different in that the cuts are designed to go inside the frames so I have cut out the inners with White Daisy cardstock and stamped the frame image on the pink patterned paper and then fussy cut them out. My daughter was wearing a dress that I had made using strawberry covered fabric which tied in really well with the papers.
Here is a close up of the tags and I have used the Marvy Uchida Le Pen journaling pen to create a sewing line for the pocket.
Materials used:
Cardstock – White Daisy, Kraft, New England Ivy, Hollyhock, Sunset, Slate
Inks – Sunset, Ruby, Cranberry, Topiary, New England Ivy, Goldrush, Glacier
Cricut Cartridge – Artistry, Art Philosophy, Artbooking
I hope you have enjoyed something different from me this week.
Have a good week and Happy Crafting.

I always love when the focus of a scrapbook page is the photos! You’ve done an exceptional job showcasing yours.
I have a whole box of UFO’s. What a cute name for them! 🙂 Maybe I’ll take a look later and see if I can put some of them in the “finished” category!

Very cute layouts, and your strawberries look real. Great coloring and shading!
Thank you 🙂 I used the rock and roll technique for the strawberries using cranberry and ruby.
