Welcome! Today I have a new scrapbook page to show. I’m switching it up and going back to scrapbooking on 8.5x11 instead of 12x12. It’s easier to store and allows me to keep it simple and not feel obligated to have a dozen photos on a layout. I’ve always been a clean and simple scrapbooker. I also wanted to show people that you can use your Stampin Up supplies for more than just cardmaking. I enjoy incorporating my stamps, inks, designer series paper and dies in my layouts. I hope to share more of these kinds of pages on the blog. I hope you enjoy them too!

Every year I do a layout I call Fall on Faulkner. I live on that street so I like to capture the look of fall each year in my yard. There have been so many changes throughout the year that I enjoy looking back and seeing the differences. This layout does not have journaling yet but I wanted to share it anyway. You will see I have featured the stamps, designer series paper and dies from the Come To Gather Suite. Although those products are not available for sale any more it should give you an idea of what’s possible when you use your own stamps, inks and dies for more than cards.

This last shot shows off the dimension in the veins in the leaf die as well as the texture in the designer series paper. I really love how this turned out and was excited to share. I hope you think of fun ways to use your stamps in scrapbooking!

Keep it scrappy!
