Brick People Blog Hop

Welcome to the Scrap Factory Brick People Blog Hop!

You’re sure to find some inspiration from the amazing projects created by our Design Team and Guests.

Thanks for stopping by, I created this 2 page layout using the brick people (Emit, Business and Construction) from the Scrap Factory.  I mixed the file with Scrappy Dew's Building Boys for additional bricks, border and the boy.  I found brick paper at a scrapbook convention I just attended.  I downloaded a free font Brix for the title.  This came together perfectly.  Using the scrap factory is perfect for designing your paper dolls, you can even mix and match to get more options.

Graduation card and embossing folder

Graduation Card and Embossing Folder

 

 

I used the Graduation 2013 file to create this classic card.

 

Border used for embossing.

 

This became a two part project.  I recently started using chipboard to make my own embossing folders.

 

You can check out my previous post on my blog for directions to make your own embossing folder.  But by creating a folder with chipboard, then taking the negative piece and adhearing it to the bottom piece to line up with the top and voila your own custom embossing foler.  I ran mine through my Sizzix Big Shot.

Scrap Factory Blog Hop

Welcome to my blog:  here I have 2 projects I made for Scrappy Dew Scrap Factory.  I love using this new program for all the possible doll creations.  The first project I used the base set:  Closed Toes, Boy hair style #1 and Boy outfit #3 for the "Bee".  I made this cute layout with the help of the "Bee Bears" from the ScrappyDew website.  I layered papers from DCWV "Shower Flower" and Debbie Mum.  I coordinated polka dot riboon and layered 2 different borders.    I chalked all of the paper piecings.  The clouds I ran thru my Sizzix Bigshot for texture.  You can find the new Scrap Factory program here: http://dash12.com/scrapfactory/

Boy Set 3

For the second project I used the Brick People Expansion set.  Here I made just the heads to use for a kids party "photo booth".  There are many options you could choose to make with the whole body, head/hair, face, outfits top/bottom.  I can't wait to make a scrapbook layout with brick theme paper.

Snowglobe: Snowman kits for sale





Upcylced Snowglobe

Here is a fun and easy winter project. I repurposed a "Prima" flower's jar by adding Recollections Tinsel Glitter and using the Scrappydew Snowman Kit 2012 pattern. Because this was a small jar I dit the project as a print and cut. I mirrored the pattern and printed 2 copies. One tip, do not mirror the sign as it will reverse the words. I scored a 1" wide piced of paper about 3" long at 1 1/4, 1 1/2 and 1 3/4. I folded in the middle and adhered the 2 folds together for the base. I slipped the folded piece in the middle of the 2 pieces. I added ribbon and voila an adorable snow globe!

If you wanted you could also look for Snowglobe kits, I found some on Ebay from $12-$25.

Just a note Easel Card Design Team Project

Just A Note

Easel Card

A print and cut easel card i created for Scrappy Dew.  I used a print cut to make this easel card.  I layered with autumn paper and stamped the sentiment "just a note"

Soaking up Memories Design Team Project

Soaking up Memories

 

 

I created this layout to list on Ebay.  I used ScrappyDew's Lil Firefighter set.  I made a border with a fire truck and ladder.  I embellished with ribbon on the mats and the border across the top. 

I went back and added the lamp that burns in Walt's apartment.



Easel Card Design Team Project for ScrappyDew

Snow in Love

Easel Card

 

 

Here is a snow globe easel card I created for my design team project with the "Snow in Love" 2013 pattern. You can find the file here: http://shop.scrappydew.com/shop/item/96321

To create this I used Make The Cut basic shapes for the snow globe the base is a 4" trapezoid that I a wood grain embossing folder and ran thru my sizzix machine, with a 4' circle for the globe. I did a print and cut on (printable) transparency. I even sprayed the cut out with glimmer mist (hard to see in the photo) for a snowy effect. I layered the inside with winter paper and a "frosty" quote.

I folded the top for the easel at 1 1/2" from the bottom but should have been at the 2" mark since there is space at the top of y globe. My overall card is 5 x 5 1/2.



"Gears Are Fun" Scrapbook Title/Border

"Gears Are Fun"

Here is a scrapbook title/border I recently made using ScrappyDew's Robot 2012 pattern.  This came out cute.  I have many plans for future layouts.

Welcome Winter sign/plaque

I made this adorable "welcome winter" sign/plaque with the "welcome winter" paper piecing pattern from Scrappy Dew.  I painted the wood oval sign with craft paint, glued on my paper piecings.  Added snow flakes with glitter glue, and accented the snow drifts.  Then I sprayed the whole sign with Perfect Pearls Mist.  I was very proud how nice this turned out.  Now if we could only get snow in Phoenix ;)
