TradeFish Designs & Another Year Layout

Hello Everyone! 


I am back again with a special layout I created using the Another Year set. I was hoping to put the layout together in a video but my family had other plans so instead I took a few photos. The first photo is of the complete layout. My hope is that you see that your clear stamps can be used for more than just cards!


The layout is incomplete as I have not selected the photo yet which means I also need to pick out a title too. I often create layouts that are ready for me to add photos to later. Having layouts ready to finish inspires me to get those photos in my camera developed.

Here is a close up of the birthday cake (with candle) stamp. I colored the cake and candle with my Copic Markers - I made the cake to look like a chocolate cake (can you say YUM?!). I also added the banner stamp...I paper-pieced different patterned and solid paper and hung them from some red and white baker's twine.

Here is a close up of the journaling box. I decided to use the confetti stamp from the Another Year stamp set and colored them in with, you guessed it, my Copic Markers! I think the confetti adds a festive look and spices up the journal box.

I took this shot on an angle to try and show you the dimension created in the layout. The banners and cake are popped up with some dimensional tape. I decided to take the photo box and schnaz it up with some baker's twine and a bright red button. The twine was wrapped around the mat 3 times with the ends of the twine used to tie the button into position.

I hope you enjoyed this CAS layout I created using the Another Year stamp set. Come back tomorrow to see what our July Guest Designer, Kate, has created for you.

Also, please don't forget the Summer of Fun Contest we have going on here at TradeFish. What contests you say? Well, check HERE for the details.

Happy Crafting!
