Make It Sunday – 12.11.11

Welcome to another Make It Sunday! We’ve got another fun layout to inspire you this weekend, plus a fun tip! Ever have a piece of paper that you love both sides, but you only have one piece? That happened to me while scrapbooking this layout above, and we’ve got the solution! Read the instructions below to see how we pulled it off and don’t forget to leave a comment to win the Elle’s Studio products used!


Here’s how this layout was made:
1. Start with your favorite woodgrain paper – for me it was a piece of Crate’s Ski Lodge.

2. Since I loved both sides of this paper, but only had one piece of paper to work with I had to improvise! Once I figured out where the photo was going to go, I cut out the paper that would be behind the photo, then cut that piece of paper into a large pennant:

Once you put the photo over the hole, you’d never guess there was missing paper behind it!

3. Add some splatters on your page! I used Studio Calico’s white Mr. Huey’s

4. Back your photo with a cream piece of cardstock to help the photo pop – I left a border of 1/8 of an inch around then entire photo.

5. Adhere the photo and large pennant down – lightly adhere the photo so you can still put tags underneath.

6. Use a shipping/packing tag and cut the bottom of it off to match your large pennant. Then, use a piece of Studio Calico FabRips (from a kit bought a couple months ago) and place it one the shipping tag – this just adds an extra layer of fun.

7. Using some alpha letters, write your title on the tag. I mixed some alpha’s here and used Lily Bee Design Memorandum, Sassafras Script Mini’s, and the BOY came from Crate’s Toy Box Chipboards.

8. Then it was time to add some embellishments! I tucked in one of our Vintage Flashcards, some buttons, and one of our Date Snippets.

9. Then I wanted to add his age, so I cut out one of our Layered Numbers and then used some Prima alpha’s to finish it off!

 
It’s time for a giveaway! We are giving away the Elle’s Studio products used on this layout:

Vintage Sweetheart Flashcards, Lil’ Snippets – Date, and Layered Number Cutouts!
