Socially Scrappy Saturday

Welcome to another edition of Socially Scrappy Saturday - getting creative while catching up on my scrapbooking! 

 

My 12x12 traditional layout was inspired by playing along over at Creative Scrapbooker Facebook groups November sketch. I am really going to miss the monthly inspiration from this magazine as it closes its doors at end of the month! 

My colour palette was chosen by playing along over at Lasting Memories November colour challenge #LM774. I have chosen to use Mossy Meadow, Cajun Craze and Old Olive with hints of Cherry Cobbler, Crushed Curry, Pecan Pie and gold foil.

I’ve chosen to get inky with some new goodies from the Online Exclusives over at Stampin’ Up!  The Friendly Foliage and Words of Beauty stamp and dies as well as the Lasting Linen background stamp. For DSP I have showcased the Timeless Plaid 6x6 paper and Gold foil DSP which was perfect combo for this colour palette challenge. 

Love the warm Fall vibes that came together with this design of accent leaves in gold, mossy meadow and Cajun craze  - going to be perfect for some Family Fall hike photos. 

Carried the theme over to a Pocket Page -  room for 3 of the 4x6 photo and two small 3x3 cropped photos and will add some journalling. 

The Lasting Linen background stamp provides some awesome texture and pairs well the plaid theme! I love the Just Because dies and Cajun Craze and Gold dots! 

Happy Scrappin’

Welcome to another edition of Socially Scrappy Saturday! 

Today I am playing with Creative Scrapbookers Magazine’s  October 2025 sketch for my layout inspiration over in their Facebook group. If you’re looking for creative inspiration pop on over and join! 

I have chosen to play with the Pine Tree Trimming stamp set, Snowflake Kisses Dies and Elegant Pine Snowflake DSP as well as the Silent Snowfall DSP. 

The Silent Snowflake DSP is fun - you can sponge over or brayer over it to add pops of colour. I chose to use Shades Spruce and a brayer to add some colour.

I followed the sketch pretty closely for my 12”x12” side. Using the Pine Tree Trimmings trees fussy cut and popped up with some of the smaller Snowflake Kisses dies. My WINTER title was created with the Alphabet A la Mode dies. I created some torn snowbanks along the bottom and added some Wink A Stella to make it glisten. 

Pocket page side coordinates with the Pine Tree Trimmings and Snowflake Kisses dies carried over.

This layout is ear marked for a family hike at the local conservation area photos where we got to feed birds right from our hands - there were so many gorgeous birds! 

Happy Scrappin’

Welcome to another edition of Socially Scrappy Saturday.

Today I am playing with a fun September 2025 sketch from over at the Creative Scrapbooker Magazine over on Facebook. 

I’ve chosen to create using my Peaceful Garden suite which I am showcasing at an upcoming crop in Dorchester paired with the Snowflake Kisses dies, Alphabet A La Mode dies and 2025-2027 other In Colour Flat Pearls.

Very happy with the end results of my 12x12 layout for an All Is Calm layout to showcase some winter photos of the family.

My pocket page to house some journaling and 3 more photos.

If you’re within driving distance of Dorchester ON grab some crafty friends and come on out this weekend to shop the annual retired stamp sale. 20 plus tables to shop of new and gently used stamps, dies, DSP and more! Goodies all looking for a new home to get inky in! 

Happy Stampin’
