TGIF!! Friday is finally here!! Although I’ve said this before, I will say it again. The days seem to all meld into one. Anyway, I’m excited about what I have to share with you today. Every 3rd Friday, I have a MKC or Memory Keeping Club. My ladies come and enjoy a night out while they put together three 2 page layouts. Everything is cut, prepped and ready to go. If you’re interested, I also have a “To Go” version. Join my email list and I can send you more info.
This month we focused on the Country Club DSP by Stampin’ Up! Now the interesting thing about this paper is that it’s all geared towards golfing. Which is great. Great. But I’m not a golfer and my ladies were much for golfing either so I had to be creative and come up with something different using the “B” side of the papers. And oh boy, was this a challenge. There was argyle print, and plaid print, and did I mention argyle print?
Well here’s what I came up with.
This was my first attempt at this Country Club DSP and I really liked the way it turned out. I wanted to use the Geared Up Garage stamp set to keep in time with the boy theme. I think this layout would be great for a birthday or Father’s day coming up. This would even be great for all those “Car Show” pictures you have lying around.
Everything on the layout is pretty straight forward. One of my favorite features are the “oil spills” that are around the page. Don’t be afraid to stamp directly on your page. It gives it texture and depth.
This next layout turned out pretty good too. If you can’t tell, I love that multi-color argyle print. Also, I used those cute little “key” & “wrench” embellishments. They are my FAVORITE!! If you don’t have some, you need to get them. They’re even on sale right now, but you only have until May 31st and then they are gone, gone, gone!! Click here to get these cute little guys.
Well car lovers, that’s all for today. Thanks for stopping by!!
Happy Stamping
Lynda
