TIOT #26- Get Scrappy!

Our challenge this week was Scrappin;! Create a scrapbook page (can be 6x6, 8x8 or 12x12) using a Victoria Case for SCACD or Anki's Sweetheart's stamp.
Be sure to visit Susana's store blog, Follow Your Heart, to see the other wonderful creations by the rest of the design team. Also check there to see how to play along (remember to use a stamp that is in one of the many stamp lines that Susana carries).
This was a true challenge for me. I started scrapbooking over 11 years ago and it truly is my "first love" in paper crafting. Then 4 years ago I found stamping. Funny thing is that I have the hardest time combining the two.
Plus I am so far behind on scrappin' that I was overwhelmed with possibilities, so much so I almost said forget it. But that's not me so I finally decided to do a page for Annabelle's Doll book ( you can see the other pages here).
I first thought I'd use Fluffy, but much to my disbelief, she doesn't have any bunnies! So then I thought and got creative and used, Rebecka, as I can see Belle "teaching" her dolls and animals one day soon. Rebecka was so much fun to color, I'm going to have to make a card with her soon!
And I didn't follow the challenge....it all wouldn't fit on one page so I made two pages. LOL!




supplies:
scrapbook page size: 8x8
stamps: Rebecka,
paper: SU retired Raspberry Tart,
ink: Memento Tuxedo Black,
others: prismacolors,OMS, cricut, SU scallop border punch, heart punch, CM fine tip pens,

Very pretty layouts. You sound like me. I've been scrapbooking for years and then got introduced to stamping and can't seem to keep up with both! I find I either get in a scrappin' mode and the cards fall behind or vise versa. Right now I'm into the stamping/cards. I have ALOT of pages to catch up on!

I do love how you incorporated your stamped image into your layout. Very cute!

You did great combining the two! Super cute photo of Belle. I always tell my friends who are new to scraping to scrap where you are now, and work your way backwards. That way you'll not feel overwhelmed. And I like to think of my stamps as a replacement for a sticker. Makes it so I can customize better than what I find at LSS.

very cute! I'm the same way - I have a hard time stamping on my pages. I tend to keep the two seperate!

Oh this turned out so so cute Danni!!

Well I am making it a regular part of my day again to get around to my favorite blogs and start commenting again. I have really missed it so very much.

I just spent some time going through your last months or so of projects. I had seen many of them when I popped by but never seemed to have time to comment, and some of them I had missed, and they were such a pretty surprise!!!

Danni your creations are all so pretty and I wish I had time to go back and comment on all of the ones I have missed but I am starting from skratch and beggining here!!!

Know that I came and I saw and I loved them all though!!!
