Carta Bella Gone Camping Layout - Happy Lakeside Adventure

Hi friends! Karla back today with a summertime layout using the Carta Bella Gone Camping collection! You may remember seeing some projects I created last month using this awesome collection - and if you missed them be sure to check out the pocket page & process video post HERE as well as the product reveal video, a layout, and a pocket page on this post HERE.

I decided to play around with the Creative Scrapbooker Magazine July Sketchy Challenge and used the lake themed papers in the Carta Bella Gone Camping Paper Pack. Even though they are fishing related, and we were simply enjoying a day at the beach, I felt they worked great and re-inforced the lake theme I was going with.

I used some Tattered Angels Glimmer Mist to colour a 'Happy' diecut that was just laying on my desk from a previous project and splattered on some mist drops over my background. The pretty blue mist colour coordinated with the blue Distress Oxide Ink I used with a stencil in several areas of the layout too. I am really liking adding different fonts and stickers to create titles with, so I grabbed some orange PinkFresh Studio puffy alphas and used them beside the Adventure banner sticker that I found in the 12x12 sticker sheet, which is included in the paper pack. I layered the 'Explore Lakeside' sticker, from the sticker sheet as well, on my photo grid and then added a stamped fish from the coordinating Gone Camping Acrylic Stamp Set.

I added the Good Mood diecut from the Gone Camping Ephemera Pack, which is full of awesome images and diecuts! A few more of the stickers and stamps along with some sequins and a wood veneer continue the theme.

I used the Project Life App to print out my journaling on a card and used some emojis. I am really loving my Canon Selphy Printer to print photos or journaling cards that I haven't already printed out! I used some more Glimmer Mist to spray an anchor wood veneer and added a bit of twine for another embellishment.

Thanks so much for stopping by today! I hope you are all having a wonderful summer, taking lots of pics to scrap 😉. Be sure to head over to the Scrap Shotz Store to see all the fantastic goodies and check out what's new!

Product Review Day 2 - Using Carta Bella and Tim Holtz for a Camping Pocket Page!

Hi there friends! Karla back again today with more goodness to share with you from the product reveal of the Carta Bella Gone Camping collection and the Tim Holtz 3-D Texture Fades Lumber Embossing Folder from Sizzix. Today, I've created a camping pocket page and I'm sharing a process video below so you can see how I put it together.

I used elements from the Carta Bella Gone Camping Paper Pack, Ephemera and Designer Stamps to create a fun page documenting our camping trip last year. 

The 12x12 Sticker Sheet has such great images in it that coordinate with everything else, and I love how awesome the stamps are!

The Tim Holtz 3-D Texture Fades Lumber Embossing Folder from Sizzix is perfect to coordinate with this camping line and worked well to create a 4x6 journaling card. A little Distress Oxide Ink added shading on the raised areas.

Here's a look at the video where you can see the process I used to create this page -

Thanks so much for stopping by! If you haven't seen the previous blog post showing you all the goodies I'm using here today, be sure to check that out HERE. I hope you have an awesome, crafty week!

Product Reveal - Carta Bella, Tim Holtz and Pink Fresh

Hi friends! Karla here today to share some fun new products at the Scrap Shotz store! If you haven't see the amazing Carta Bella Gone Camping collection, you are definitely going to want to check it out. I've been having so much fun using it to scrapbook my camping layouts from last year, and I'm already looking forward to documenting our summertime fun with it this year too! You can check out the Reveal Video below to see all these goodies closeup. Here's a look at the layouts I created with the Gone Camping collection, the Tim Holtz 3-D Texture Fades Lumber Embossing Folder from Sizzix and the Pink Fresh Puffy Alpha Stickers.

For my first layout I started off by using the Creative Scrapbooker June Sketchy Challenge. I layered the amazing Carta Bella papers, cut aparts, ephemera and stamps to create a scrapbook page to document the fun we had around the campfire roasting marshmallows. Relaxing around the campfire at the end of the day is definitely my favourite thing about camping 😉 

I love how the papers all coordinate with an outdoorsy feel! These would be perfect for a masculine card or scrapbook page as well. I coordinated the alphabet stickers with the stickers from the 12x12 sticker set that comes in the paper pack to create a mini title.

There are such great sentiments on the sticker sheet as well as in the stamp set. You could create some really fun cards with these too!

I created some DIY embellishments using the stamps and some diecuts from my stash. I love using Distress Oxides to stamp with! The stamps are a great quality and stamp beautifully.

I used the Campfire Marshmallow card from the cut apart sheet as a title and layered it with coordinating papers and a couple pieces of cardstock embossed with the cool 3D Texture Fade folder. I used my coloured pencils to colour up the stamps and layer them on to further embellish.

For the second page I tucked some cards from the cut apart sheets and my photos into a pocket page protector. The 3D folder again created a fun and woodsy journaling card, perfect for any outdoorsy theme!

The postcard journaling card was perfect for writing on. I really love the vintage look of this collection!

How cool is the 'Grandma's Camping Salad' recipe card from the cut apart sheet?!! I layered stickers and ephemera along with paper and those pretty alphas to create a title card.

I added a stamp to the Great Outdoors card for a little extra detail and I taped the Camping tab to the outside of my pocket.

Here's a look at the Reveal Video where you can check out everything I'm using close up!!
