A Happy Hello and welcome aboard our Storybook Australasian Close to My Heart Blog Hop.
If you have arrived here from Lauren Moore- CTMH Craftings then you are in the right place. If you landed here by accident, no problem, please join in by following the link at the end of this post.
For this project I choose to create a 8½” x 11″ Scrapbook layout that will feature one of those everyday moment type pics you take for no real reason.
I started off with ink blending the background with Speckled Egg Distress Oxide™ Ink & did some oxidisation with water. I also added in Mist Exclusive Inks™ stencilled over with the dotted stencil from the Slimline Card Front Stencil Pack 2. I then tore the edge of the diamond, dotted design & the striped design from the Storybook Collection.
I created a photo mat from the Blue Arrow design & have a little bit of the Storybook—Cardmaking background Thin Cut behind this on the left side for a little added interest.
I used the little flags from the Storybook Sticker sheet & created some to match from cardstock.
I added some zip strips & embellishments from the Storybook Die-cuts & the stickers.
The title was created from the Storybook—Scrapbooking Stamp & the Bracket & date frame from the Lovin’ Right Now Stamp Set.
I wrote out THE for the title with a journal pen.
I had a lot of fun creating this Scrapbook layout.

Your ink blending with the distressed oxide inks looks great and I really like that torn paper border. It adds a real pop of colour.
