Documenting Christmas, Dec 12-15 - with Scrappy Canary!

Today I'm showing you more pages of my "Schultz Christmas 2015" Documenting December Album (for December 12-15) made using the Document December kit from Scrappy Canary.

Here is a close up of the LHS. I love the red & cream colours with a splash of gold!

The woodgrain paper is some of my favourite as are the gold numbers and stars! Rachael has a photo wall in her room - the elves joined in and took a selfie on her instax!

The diecuts from the Shimelle ephemera pack in the kit are so fun!

Here is a close up of the RHS.

Our elves spent the day in our fridge - was way too hot for them!

I've done lots of layering on this card.

All of my photos have been printed on an Epson XP-600.

Documenting Christmas, Dec 8-11 - with Scrappy Canary!

Today I'm showing you more pages of my "Schultz Christmas 2015" Documenting December Album (for December 8-11) made using the Document December kit from Scrappy Canary.

Here is a close up of the LHS. I had lots of photos for these 2 days!

Our elves were very cheeky here - printing photocopies of themselves!

Rachael and I enjoyed a girls lunch together along with some Christmas shopping!

Here is a close up of the RHS. Less photos here so I could highlight more of the pretty papers and embellishments!

I fussy cut the tags from the patterned paper - perfect for extra embellishing.

The weather is far from snowflakes here - but they are still fun to add to the cards!

All of my photos have been printed on an Epson XP-600.

Documenting Christmas, Dec 4-7 - with Scrappy Canary!

Today I'm showing you more pages of my "Schultz Christmas 2015" Documenting December Album (for December 4-7) made using the Document December kit from Scrappy Canary.

Here is a close up of the LHS. The larger 6x4 cards are cut from the paper pad. I like making my own cards this way - a great way to use up all of the paper I seem to "need"!

When you cut down a piece of 6x6 paper there is a 2x6 strip left - I like to join 2 together to make another card - no waste :) I've also used some of the star stickers, the gold twine and a wood veneer from the kit. Our elves were cheeky this day and playing in my jewellery collection!

There are a few gold foil words in the kit - just beautiful, I wish there were more!

It has been incredibly hot here this summer so slip-n-slide fun is a must!

Here is a close up of the RHS.

I've used more of the diecuts and wood veneer on these cards - this train is cute, as were our elves making a shoe train!

Most of my journalling has been hand written, it is quicker and I prefer the look for my DD.

All of my photos have been printed on an Epson XP-600.

Christmas Elves - with Paper House Productions!

This week is ColorWays week over at Paper House Productions so today I'd like to share with you a scrapbook page I made using lots of goodies from the PHP  ColorWays Gatsby collection. I love the glitz and sparkle from this collection - just perfect for Christmas projects! 

This photo was taken on Christmas eve last year with our 2 Elves :)

I started my page by using a star stencil and some gold paste. Once this had properly dried (overnight is best) I backed this with a sheet of paper from the Gatsby paper pack.  

In this top corner I added a punched paper piece (also from the Gatsby paper pack) a circle accent from the Gatsby accent pack and puffy stickers from the merry and bright sculpted sticker pack, as well as some gold alphas (from my stash) for the title. 

Under the photo I layered some paper from the Gatsby paper pack and elements from the Gatsby accent pack. I love the "glitter sparkle shine" element!! The wire, flowers and reindeer angel are from my stash.

I also added some white star puffy stickers from the merry and bright sculpted sticker - I love this shape!

Then I finished it off with some handwritten journalling about our elves!

I've loved using these new ColorWays Gatsby products, perfect for Christmas! 
All photos have been printed on an Epson XP-600.

Project Life Week 47 - With Scrappy Canary!

Today I'm showing you Week 47 for my "Schultz Family 2015" Project Life Album. This week is only Mon-Fri because I started "Documenting Christmas" on the Saturday. I've also only used 1 page as the other side was used for the title page for Christmas.

This week I've used the Nov/Dec Pocket Life kit Jessica from Scrappy Canary. The photos are of my Jessica's end of year gymnastics display, and a visit to the local Cherry Shed Cafe - cherries ... yumm!

Here is a close up of the LHS. The gold patterned card was in the kit and I've added some gold accent stickers.

There are some gold foiled acetate cards in the kit and I've overlayed one on some of the patterned paper - and attached using tiny staples. 

I printed my journalling direct onto patterned paper then added a strip of paper, a fussy cut journal tab, and a gold accent sticker.

All of my photos have been printed on an Epson XP-600.

Project Life Week 46 - With Scrappy Canary!

Today I'm showing you Week 46 for my "Schultz Family 2015" Project Life Album. This was a busy week in the lead up to the end of school year and I had lots of photos!

This week I've used the Nov/Dec Pocket Life kit Jessica from Scrappy Canary.

Here is a close up of the LHS. The papers and embellishments in this kit are a mix of subtle and bold with a splash of gold!

When we went out for dinner we had this amazing (and large) dessert - eating out is all about dessert isn't it!?! I cut these labels from a sheet of the patterned paper, they are perfect for adding journalling to your cards!

I was lucky enough to be able to attend Finnabair's "overemotional" class at Seriously Scrapbooking in Adelaide, so much amazing inspiration from Anna and all the other lovely ladies at the class :)

Here is a close up of the RHS. I've printed my journalling for the week directly onto a piece of the patterned paper, and used some of the fun circle alphas as a title.

The patterned paper has lots of elements that can be fussy cut to add extra detail to your cards - and a paperclip is always a fun addition to a card. The "xoxo" stamp is the roller stamp from the Leila SB kit . I'm a roller stamp junkie and have at least 20 of them!!  

The photos here were taken when Rachael had a day home from school with conjunctivitis - she was so bored she dressed up in her life jacket and practiced the piano!!

I've used lots of the Pink Paislee clear accent stickers from the kit on the cards and photos.

All of my photos have been printed on an Epson XP-600.

Documenting Christmas, Nov 30 to Dec 3 - with Scrappy Canary!

Today I'm showing you more pages of my "Schultz Christmas 2015" Documenting December Album - For November 30 to December 3.

I've used the Document December kit from Scrappy Canary  for these pages - there is so many fabulous Christmas goodies in this kit!

Here is a close up of the LHS. From 1st December I've used the numerals from the kit. I've also used a combination of the cards, paper pad and die cuts for my filler cards.

Even though Christmas is in the summer time here in Australia it is still fun to add snowflakes as embellishments :)

Here is a close up of the RHS. These photos show the latest elf antics as well as end of year activities for my girls!

I love using the printables that come with the kit and isn't this reindeer paperclip adorable!

All of my photos have been printed on an Epson XP-600.

Documenting Christmas, Nov 26-29 - with Scrappy Canary!

Today I'm showing you more pages of my "Schultz Christmas 2015" Documenting December Album - For November 26-29.

I've mainly used the Document December kit from Scrappy Canary as well as some other items from my stash.

Here is a close up of the LHS. For these 4 days I've printed the date directly onto some of the patterned cards in the kit - then added some handwritten journalling.

I've done lots of layering on these cards using the patterned paper, die-cuts and labels. I've also used some of the flair I made using the patterned paper.

Here is a close up of the RHS. On this day the elves were hiding in the dolls pram - that meant they could be moved around the house without touching them :)

The acetate cards came with the page protectors and look great backed with some patterned paper. 

All of my photos have been printed on an Epson XP-600.
