I had so much fun with last weeks page, that I wanted to finish the 2-page spread and document our Christmas Eve traditions. We always enjoy so many things on Christmas Eve. In fact, I may need to do a few more pages just to document everything else.This weeks page focuses on some stamp techniques that I haven't done with my Inchie Squares ~ paper piecing and cutting out stamped images. Isn't this cup of cocoa too fun? I colored the image to match the page (thus why it's pink). Then I used my Glaze pen to make the dots stand out ~ it looks so yummy to me!
This is my page from last week's Inchie Friday (click here for more photos of this page). One thing I did change on this page from last week ~ I added stamped snowflakes on the blue border and I like it much better.
This is what scrapbooking is all about to me ~ documenting my family history. I know that years down the road, our family will love looking at this page and reading about what we did every Christmas.I used my Inchie squares on my journaling block to do two things: 1) bring attention to the journaling; and 2) tie the journaling to the specific photo.
I stamped the ice cream cone on cardstock this time and after I colored it with my Copic markers, I cut it out. It was such a long, narrow image that I thought it looked better popped up off some coordinating pattern paper.
On this last Inchie square, I decided to paper piece the mittens. When you have a larger amount of empty space on your image, paper piecing is a fun technique to try. It adds a lot to your image without having to color it.
