Scrapbooking Process Video, 'Citizen Cope'

HI there, here today with another scrapbook process video, a layout made from a photo of Citizen Cope at a concert my daughter and son-in-law took me to for my birthday (yes, my choice, Citizen Cope was on my playlist long before it was on theirs :).

I chose basically one accent color of turquoise along with black for the background and few touches of lime green here and there.  The title alpha was created using Quickutz Studio Classic Alpha, and the subtitle 'to me' using Quickkutz, 'moonlight.'  The turquoise chevron paper is by Carta Bella, the black star patterned paper by Papertrey Ink, unfortunaltely, I took the branding strip off the bookprint paper before I could jot down the name.  The green swirl rub-on is by Basic Grey from a long-ago released collection of 'Olio.'  There is one Becky Higgins project life card with the date, the other rectangles were die cut from lawn fawn stitched rectangles.  I finished off the project with a few stamps from Heidi Swapp and Technique Tuesday, along with some crystal stars.

Creating Handmade Scrapbooking/Gift Embellishment Tags

Hello!  The other day while searching for the perfect embellishment for a scrapbook page, rifling through my stash, I decided that I should share my love of tags, and created the many layers of tags/embellishments.  As I mention in the video, I use this stash for a number of things, scrapbook page embellishments, tied onto gift sacks, or make them into a card.  I often leave room for the right sentiment,  so they will be totally versatile for future use.  Before I go any further, I must apologize for my scruffy nails......I had been touching up the stain on the trim in our house all day (very unforgiving :). I also called the Friendship Jar stamp and die set by Papertrey Ink 'Jar Fillers,' whoops, another 'whoops,' I called my handmade spiral flowers 'spiral tags.'  I get so focused on trying to finish in a timely manner....I mind my words....oh well, it's done now :)

Onto the video....I have still shots at the end, if you have any questions, please leave in the comments.

Thanks so much for stopping by!
