Preserving Memories with The Christmas Scottie Frame

in Cardmaking, Videos on 07/21/22

Hello crafters/Bonjour!

Did you catch my live on Kim McGillis Papercrafter’s Facebook Page last night?  It was my first one…. Yikes.  I’m so shy but decided to try it out while I had the house to myself.  I had so many questions about my background for the last card that I posted HERE.  That I decided to make a live video.  I also shared details about the beautiful frame I made for my daughter Megan.  If you missed my live you can catch up HERE.

 Basic Steps to create a Scrapbook frame:

  • Grab a frame that you have in your home that you are not using any longer
  • Add a magnetic sheet in the space where you would place a photo
  • Layer a designer series paper on top of the magnetic sheet ( I used the Abigail Rose DSP)
  • Embellish as you wish
  • Add mini magnetics behind the photos

Tip:  I added magnets behind the photos for Megan because she can switch the pictures when feels like she wants a change.  

In the image below, I switched one of her pictures to show how easy it is.

The Natural Finish 7/8″ Ribbon is my favorite in Stampin’up!’s Annual catalogue.  It is so easy to work with and create beautiful bows.  Did you see in the catalogue on p.57, the designers stamped on the ribbon?  It is simply beautiful.

I’m really enjoying the possibilities with the Christmas Scottie Bundle.  In the image above, you get to see 3 different ways I used the scotties:

  • Idea #1:  using the Scottie Dog Punch, I punched out a piece of Petal Pink Cardstock
  • Idea #2:  using the Scottie Dog Punch, I punched out a piece of Abigail Rose Designer series Paper
  • Idea #3:  using the Christmas Scottie Stamp set, I stamped in Gray Granite Ink the scottie on whisper white cardstock, I punched him out with the Scottie Dog Punch and embellished with a bow punched out from the same punch in Abigail Rose DSP.

This type of crafting is my favorite.  I find super important to preserve memories.  Maya’s legacy will be recognized and Megan will be able to add this frame on her wall or on a desk.

Below, you will find a list of products used to create this frame.  If you are a dog lover or know of any dog lovers, the Christmas Scottie Bundle needs to be added to your wish list.

There has never been a better time to get your starter kit.  If you are new to crafting, reach out to me for details.

Papercrafting is about preserving memories. I want Papercrafting is about preserving memories. I wanted to make my own DIY frame for a memory keeping of our trip to Banff Alberta! I designed my frame using the Country Woods Designer Series Paper and used @stampinupofficial ‘s Scenic Adventure Bundle and Weekend Adventures collection to embellish. I also made coordinating Polaroid note cards. 

I’m obsessed at making these little Polaroid note cards and will add a couple more to my collection.

A huge thank you to the Stampin’ Through the Cat A huge thank you to the Stampin’ Through the Catalog design team for inviting me to be one of this month’s guest designers! I was truly honored! 

I made a card using Stampin’ Up!’s Good Times Mix & Match Ephemera Pack and paired it with the Extraordinary Flora Bundle and its coordinating Washi Tape.

I went with a fresh, summery palette of Darling Duckling, Flirty Flamingo, Strawberry Slush, and Old Olive. 

Did you know @stampinupofficial is having a  Creative Challenge this month with fresh In Colors to mix with your go-to classics?  Well my card meets the challenge… 💛

What did I use to make this card?

Full details are provided on @stampinthroughthecatalog as well as how Melody, Cindy & Kaitlyn cased some elements and made their own card designs. I love how they explained in details what element inspired them from my card. Go check it out!
