blog hopping with kellie stamps...

Hi and welcome to the Kellie Stamps and {scrAp this!} blog hop!!!! I have been a Give a Girl a Blog fan for quite some time and am thrilled to be teaming up with Kellie and her wonderful team and absolutely love the results of combining our products.

Kellie Stamps summer fun & summer mini clear stamp sets, wood veneer flairs

{scrAp this!} geometric heart accents, felt & glitter triangles, polaroid shaker card

I was inspired by Kellie's summer themed stamp sets to create a layout about one of my favourite beaches.

the fuzzy felt and sparkly glitter in my triangle accents helped me choose this soft summery colour combo.

I stamped the title onto the vellum window of the polaroid shaker card - which is filled with tiny pastel stars and love how the stamping resembles the sand in the photo when used with glitter embossing powder.

you don't need a lot of product to create interesting effects if you vary the textures. I combined metallic stitching in my geometric heart, glitter embossed stamping, engraved wood veneer and a tiny bit of fuzzy felt for this easy accent cluster. I love the way the stamped words peek out from inside the triangles.

Because I was still in mood to create, I got out another combination of products to use in my project life album.

Kellie Stamps cozy and monday-friday clear stamp sets, wood veneer flairs, wood mounted stamps

{scrAp this!} gold dipped designs, geometric heart accents, 3x4" cards and 4x6" stitched word borders

I got really behind with project life last year so I decided to revisit my 2013 album and even though it wasn't a particularly eventful week, it feels great to record all of these little moments!

here's a closer look at the left hand side

The stitched word borders are perfect for adding to journal cards and 6x4 photos and the 3x4 vellum backed love cards are a great way to add some interest over your favourite patterns.

I absolutely love Kellie's Monday-Friday stamp set and have used it numerous times throughout my albums and you really can't go wrong with a simple grid base for your stamping.

if you are not confident stamping directly onto your photos, vellum strips are a great alternative!

here's the right hand side...

metallic accents, stamping and stitching are a quick and easy way to dress up project life pockets.
