Scrapping Saturday – DT: Kingston Crafts – Summer collection paper

I’ve decided to try and share scrapbook pages on Saturday’s this year to keep me in the zone with doing them – so Scrapping Saturday! I’m starting with one I made for my DT projects fro Kingston Crafts.

I decided to make a 8×8 scrapbook page using the Kingston Crafts summer collection papers for the main feature – although I also added some shrink plastic as it worked with the image I thought!

I started with some distress oxide ink using the usual packaging technique and then left it to dry. Then I cut some strips of the paper – mainly the one with the waves and then added in a few strips of the shell and the text one too.

Next I added some stitched circles – I actually ended up taking this up to bed to do whilst I listened to an audio book as I was doing this quite late at night.

The next day I decided on the papers to stack under the photo which I thought worked well in giving some contrast but still tied in with the background.

I decided to use the same ones but a plain white piece of cardstock to separate the side.

I added them all at angles as it worked well and raised it up with foam adhesive.

I then took the shell themed paper and fussy cut out the shells to add as embellishments.

I added the shrink plastic Beach Vibes words and the flip flops too as embellishments too – and then some blue card candi too. I added in a bit of the journalling onto some white.

Really love how this came together (and it is actually better than I was expecting which is always nice!).

Happy crafting!

Catherine
