Almost Artisan Scrapbook Share: Day 5

Here is my third scrapbook page Artisan Award entry I made with pictures of a funny-faced little llama from a petting zoo.

Almost Artisan 3D Share: Day 4

I truly loved this project I made for Artisan Award, its a baby mini scrapbook. The pages have headings with room for pictures and journalling. Luckily for me I made two so I could keep one! The chipboard 'b' is covered in silver microbeads. The banner off to the side says "is for baby"

I photographed all the pages but here are just a few, first bath and 3 months:

"Look Who's Crawling" and "First Words"
"First Steps" and a bitty envelope to hold the "First Curl"
Baby's First Birthday:

Almost Artisan Card Share: Day 3

Here is one of the cards I made for Artsan Award, going for a vintage look:

Almost Artisan Scrapbook Share: Day 2

So here is my second Scrapbook page entry for Artisan Award. I have two sons but wanted to do a girl page so I used a close up of one of my son's feet just after he was born and made a page for my imaginary daughter! Hey, a girl needs some pink sometimes!

A close-up of the paper punch flowers and the layering of the page:

Hope you like it!

Almost Artisan Share:Day 1

Well, I can't way I'm not bummed because I didn't win Artisan Award (a contest for Stampin' Up! Demonstrators) but it is nice to finally be able to share the projects I worked so hard on. I made 3 scrapbook pages, 5 cards, and 2 3D projects for the contest and I will be featuring one each day for the next 10 days so please check back daily to see them. (And a comment to stroke my bruised ego would be much appreciated too!!)

Here is my first share, an 8.5 by 11 scrapbook page of my son.




Its hard to see but the background is stamped in Versamark with the dotted swirl Treetop from Trendy Trees.

Some of the other "Almost Artisans" will be posting their projects on their blogs too-go check them out and leave a comment!
