I had just finished posting two stories on my personal blog, “<a href="https://crabtree-creations.blogspot.com/2014/09/twas-night-before-christmas.html">Crabtree-Creations</a>” using a new collection called” <a href="https://www.fotobella.com/graphic-45-twas-the-night-before-christmas-deluxe-collectors-edition">Twas the Night Before Christmas</a>” by <a href="https://www.fotobella.com/Graphic-45-Paper-Crafting-and-Scrapbooking-Supplies">Graphic 45</a>. Like most Graphic 45 paper collections, these beautiful Victorian images were perfect for making cards. </p><p>My <a href="https://crabtree-creations.blogspot.com/2014/09/twas-night-before-christmas.html">first blog post</a> featured the four cards you see above. The <a href="https://crabtree-creations.blogspot.com/search?q=%27twas">second post</a> described the process by which I design cards...I took the reader through each step from first, selecting the paper to next, cutting out the images for embellishments and finally, designing and constructing the cards! My readership was good, and I really enjoyed blogging as well as teaching others how I made my cards. But little did I know that <a href="https://www.fotobella.com/graphic-45-twas-the-night-before-christmas-deluxe-collectors-edition">Twas the Night Before Christmas paper </a>would lead me to a new adventure...</p><figure class="image strchf-type-image regular strchf-size-regular strchf-align-center"><picture><source srcset="https://images.storychief.com/account_3554/IMG_1554_5962be4b7bc5b9eb5ca57be0ca34bd8c_800.JPG 1x" media="(max-width: 768px)" /><source srcset="https://images.storychief.com/account_3554/IMG_1554_5962be4b7bc5b9eb5ca57be0ca34bd8c_800.JPG 1x" media="(min-width: 769px)" /><img alt="Twas the Night before Christmas" src="https://images.storychief.com/account_3554/IMG_1554_5962be4b7bc5b9eb5ca57be0ca34bd8c_800.JPG" /></picture><figcaption>Twas the Night Before Christmas Cards</figcaption></figure><h4 id="24v9f">The Day Things Changed</h4><p>One day I received a note from Cher Nicastro, owner of FotoBella.com. who asked me if she could post photos of those very cards I made using the Grapthic 45 Twas the Night Before Christmas paper. I said “of course!” and in the process of discussing this, I asked her if she needed someone to design for her company. Cher immediately said yes and it was as if in one moment I had gone from a card maker to a card designer! </p><figure class="image strchf-type-image regular strchf-size-regular strchf-align-center"><a href="http://Twas the night before Christmas"><picture><source srcset="https://images.storychief.com/account_3554/IMG_1555_fda808be5e299f25b57bf63dd9dbc930_800.JPG 1x" media="(max-width: 768px)" /><source srcset="https://images.storychief.com/account_3554/IMG_1555_fda808be5e299f25b57bf63dd9dbc930_800.JPG 1x" media="(min-width: 769px)" /><img src="https://images.storychief.com/account_3554/IMG_1555_fda808be5e299f25b57bf63dd9dbc930_800.JPG" /></picture></a><figcaption>Twas the Night Before Christmas Cards</figcaption></figure><h4 id="a45gm">What’s Old is New Again</h4><p>Now, eight years later, Twas the Night Before Christmas is back!

In addition to designing three projects a month, Cher took me to Creativation, the Craft and Hobby Association’s annual Trade Show. I learned so much and met so many talented designers! But the years also were difficult at times...I had to have several surgeries, and my physically disabled son was hospitalized numerous times which took me away from my designing. But the support from Cher and my design team manager, Jeri Vann never wavered. </p><figure class="image strchf-type-image regular strchf-size-regular strchf-align-center"><picture><source srcset="https://images.storychief.com/account_3554/IMG_1479_1a42bd78be04594cfe36827a002cecca_800.jpg 1x" media="(max-width: 768px)" /><source srcset="https://images.storychief.com/account_3554/IMG_1479_1a42bd78be04594cfe36827a002cecca_800.jpg 1x" media="(min-width: 769px)" /><img alt="Twas the Night before Christmas" src="https://images.storychief.com/account_3554/IMG_1479_1a42bd78be04594cfe36827a002cecca_800.jpg" /></picture></figure><p>This is what impressed me the most about designing for Fotobella.com. They cared about us! So as I say goodbye to this chapter in my life, I want to say thank you to Cher and Jeri for all you have done for me! I loved designing for FotoBella.com! And to my fellow design team members both past and present, thank you for your kindness and friendship! It will never be forgotten!</p><h4 id="d5nhq">Before I go...</h4><p>Before I go I wanted to share another Christmas card and a tag I made this year using the Northern Lights collection.

It’s Kristine and I’m here today to share my final post as a FotoBella design team member. It has been such a wonderful two years designing for the team. So, a big “thank you” to Cher for taking a chance on a new designer and giving me my first design team job! My art has evolved over these last two years, and I am so very appreciative of the opportunity you have given me.</p><p>Truly, it has been an honor to design alongside so many other talented ladies. First, a warm “thank you” to my fellow designer, Chris, for all of your positivity. It has been fun to work alongside you. To my friend, ReNae, “thank you” from the bottom of my heart for your friendship, constant encouragement, and understanding (and sharing) of my Graphic 45 obsession! A very special “thank you” to Jeri for your guidance, willingness to answer questions, as well as support and encouragement along the way. You make it such a joy to be a part of the FotoBella design team!</p><h3 id="d3jro">Final Project - Live with Passion Journal</h3><figure class="image strchf-type-image regular strchf-size-regular strchf-align-center"><picture><source srcset="https://images.storychief.com/account_3554/IMG_2334_e77e7da85a123c0b970289ec1c367b85_800.jpeg 1x, https://images.storychief.com/account_3554/IMG_2334_e77e7da85a123c0b970289ec1c367b85_1600.jpeg 2x" media="(max-width: 768px)" /><source srcset="https://images.storychief.com/account_3554/IMG_2334_e77e7da85a123c0b970289ec1c367b85_800.jpeg 1x, https://images.storychief.com/account_3554/IMG_2334_e77e7da85a123c0b970289ec1c367b85_1600.jpeg 2x" media="(min-width: 769px)" /><img src="https://images.storychief.com/account_3554/IMG_2334_e77e7da85a123c0b970289ec1c367b85_800.jpeg" /></picture></figure><p>As I reflect upon my last two years on the design team, I am filled with gratitude for the opportunity to fulfill my passion.

projects. So, my challenge for this project is to create a small journal. My goal is for it to be beautiful and whimsical, but also somewhat functional. I hope I succeeded in this task. It was fun to make and the inspirational quotes throughout are so applicable to my paper crafting. Using just a few images from the <a href="https://www.fotobella.com/stamperia-collectables-10-sheets-cm-15x305-6x12-passion">Collectables papers</a> gives my pages a bit of embellishment.

It’s Kristine and today I have one more project share for you using the Stamperia Passion collection. In this post, I will show you the adorable mini journal I made with items from the collection. With the ballet-theme throughout the Stamperia papers, my journal features ballerina journaling pages and ephemera. There’s plenty of space to write and lots of fun extras such as tags and journaling cards.</p><p>Here’s the basic supply list for my project:</p><ul><li>Stamperia Passion <a href="https://www.fotobella.com/stamperia-collectables-10-sheets-cm-15x305-6x12-passion">Collectables papers</a> and <a href="https://www.fotobella.com/stamperia-scrapbooking-mini-pad-10-sheets-20-3x20-3-8x8-passion">8x8 paper pad</a></li><li>Stamperia <a href="https://www.fotobella.com/stamperia-soft-mould-a4-passion-dancer">mould</a> and <a href="https://www.fotobella.com/stamperia-soft-clay-160-gr-white">soft white clay</a></li><li>Gold <a href="https://www.fotobella.com/stamperia-glamour-paste-100-ml-gold">Glamour Paste</a> and French Rose <a href="https://www.fotobella.com/Tonic-Studios-Nuvo-Embellishment-Mousse-French-Rose">Nuvo Mousse</a></li></ul><figure class="image strchf-type-image regular strchf-size-regular strchf-align-center"><picture><source srcset="https://images.storychief.com/account_3554/IMG_2238_6b5c8b0d0f5bae7cd939d4d777338144_800.jpeg 1x, https://images.storychief.com/account_3554/IMG_2238_6b5c8b0d0f5bae7cd939d4d777338144_1600.jpeg 2x" media="(max-width: 768px)" /><source srcset="https://images.storychief.com/account_3554/IMG_2238_6b5c8b0d0f5bae7cd939d4d777338144_800.jpeg 1x, https://images.storychief.com/account_3554/IMG_2238_6b5c8b0d0f5bae7cd939d4d777338144_1600.jpeg 2x" media="(min-width: 769px)" /><img alt="dancer's journal" src="https://images.storychief.com/account_3554/IMG_2238_6b5c8b0d0f5bae7cd939d4d777338144_800.jpeg" /></picture></figure><h3 id="d43ee">The Journal Cover</h3><p>My cover base is made from a wooden cover I cut on my laser cutter.

It’s Kristine and I’m here today with a mixed media canvas that I decorated with the Passion collection by Stamperia. With the musical theme running through the collection, the focus of my canvas will be on the violin. For my project, I cut a violin shape from wood using my laser cutter. However, if you have an electronic cutting machine, you can create your own shape using cardstock.</p><p>The basic supplies I use in my project include an 8x10 canvas board, Stamperia Passion <a href="https://www.fotobella.com/stamperia-collectables-10-sheets-cm-15x305-6x12-passion">Collectables papers</a> and the <a href="https://www.fotobella.com/stamperia-scrapbooking-mini-pad-10-sheets-20-3x20-3-8x8-passion">8x8 paper pad</a>, and <a href="https://www.fotobella.com/stamperia-decorative-chips-14x14-cm-passion-dancer">decorative chips</a>. Also, I use a Stamperia <a href="https://www.fotobella.com/stamperia-soft-mould-a5-passion-patchwork-music">texture mould</a> from the Passion collection and <a href="https://www.fotobella.com/stamperia-soft-clay-160-gr-white">soft white clay</a>. Then, I will use several mixed-media supplies including <a href="https://www.fotobella.com/stamperia-gesso-paste">gesso</a>, gold <a href="https://www.fotobella.com/stamperia-glamour-paste-100-ml-gold">Glamour Paste</a>, <a href="https://www.fotobella.com/Tonic-Studios-Nuvo-Embellishment-Mousse-French-Rose">French Rose Nuvo Mousse</a>, <a href="https://www.fotobella.com/graphic-45-marine-blue-inkpad">blue ink</a>, and gold <a href="https://www.fotobella.com/stamperia-glamour-gel-20-ml-gold-dew-">Glamour Gel</a>. Finally, I add texture to my canvas background with texture paste and a stencil.</p><figure class="image strchf-type-image regular strchf-size-regular strchf-align-center"><picture><source srcset="https://images.storychief.com/account_3554/IMG_2236_24d6407d227815b0611799ceff5afa90_800.jpeg 1x, https://images.storychief.com/account_3554/IMG_2236_24d6407d227815b0611799ceff5afa90_1600.jpeg 2x" media="(max-width: 768px)" /><source srcset="https://images.storychief.com/account_3554/IMG_2236_24d6407d227815b0611799ceff5afa90_800.jpeg 1x, https://images.storychief.com/account_3554/IMG_2236_24d6407d227815b0611799ceff5afa90_1600.jpeg 2x" media="(min-width: 769px)" /><img alt="mixed media canvas" src="https://images.storychief.com/account_3554/IMG_2236_24d6407d227815b0611799ceff5afa90_800.jpeg" /></picture></figure><h3 id="8rnoo">Steps to Make Your Own Mixed Media Canvas</h3><p>Begin by using the stencil and texture paste on the background of the canvas. Once dry, use the soft clay and texture mould to create some impressions for the mixed media canvas. Then, cover the entire surface of the canvas with a layer of gesso.</p><p>Use a paintbrush to add the gold Glamour Paste to the background. This will make the mixed media canvas shimmer. Then, use your finger to brush the French Rose Nuvo Mousse on the raised areas from the stencil. Next, add blue ink to the clay impressions from the texture moulds so they stand out from the pink background.</p><figure class="image strchf-type-image regular strchf-size-regular strchf-align-center"><picture><source srcset="https://images.storychief.com/account_3554/IMG_2230_b76483b15f5e426e7f972770922a694a_800.jpeg 1x, https://images.storychief.com/account_3554/IMG_2230_b76483b15f5e426e7f972770922a694a_1600.jpeg 2x" media="(max-width: 768px)" /><source srcset="https://images.storychief.com/account_3554/IMG_2230_b76483b15f5e426e7f972770922a694a_800.jpeg 1x, https://images.storychief.com/account_3554/IMG_2230_b76483b15f5e426e7f972770922a694a_1600.jpeg 2x" media="(min-width: 769px)" /><img src="https://images.storychief.com/account_3554/IMG_2230_b76483b15f5e426e7f972770922a694a_800.jpeg" /></picture></figure><h3 id="c4f9u">Creating the Violin</h3><p>To make my violin stand out, I will add an offset to my violin image. The offset layer is covered in brown lace paper from the Collectables paper. Then, I will add the teal lace paper to the violin shape and use a craft knife to cut the shape. I will ink my edges with distress ink for added dimension.</p><figure class="image strchf-type-image regular strchf-size-regular strchf-align-center"><picture><source srcset="https://images.storychief.com/account_3554/IMG_2228_7bd65afb842fe9b252bc8488376aa887_800.jpeg 1x, https://images.storychief.com/account_3554/IMG_2228_7bd65afb842fe9b252bc8488376aa887_1600.jpeg 2x" media="(max-width: 768px)" /><source srcset="https://images.storychief.com/account_3554/IMG_2228_7bd65afb842fe9b252bc8488376aa887_800.jpeg 1x, https://images.storychief.com/account_3554/IMG_2228_7bd65afb842fe9b252bc8488376aa887_1600.jpeg 2x" media="(min-width: 769px)" /><img src="https://images.storychief.com/account_3554/IMG_2228_7bd65afb842fe9b252bc8488376aa887_800.jpeg" /></picture></figure><p>Once the base is complete, I will add some strings to my violin using thin hemp cord. Next, I will begin decorating my violin using fussy cut pieces from the Collectables Papers. My flowers are shaped and sculpted to give some dimension to my mixed media canvas.

I wanted my violin to be off center because I want to use some of the decorative chips to add a title.

It’s Kristine and I’m here today with my first post featuring the lovely Stamperia Passion collection. In this post, I’ll share a ballet themed scrapbook layout I made using some mixed media products from the collection. But first, let me tell you a bit about the collection. These papers are filled with images of ballet and music, with soft pinks and aquas. In this project, I’ll use some fussy cut pieces from the <a href="https://www.fotobella.com/stamperia-collectables-10-sheets-cm-15x305-6x12-passion">Collectables papers</a>. Then, I’ll add some of the Stamperia <a href="https://www.fotobella.com/stamperia-decorative-chips-14x14-cm-passion-laces-and-corners">decorative chips</a> to add a delicate, lace-like look.</p><p>Additionally, I will show you how clay and moulds can make dimensional embellishments for a scrapbook layout. Stamperia’s collections typically feature several coordinating moulds, including shallower <a href="https://www.fotobella.com/stamperia-soft-mould-a5-passion-patchwork-music">texture moulds</a> and deeper <a href="https://www.fotobella.com/stamperia-soft-mould-a4-passion-dancer">soft moulds</a>. The Stamperia <a href="https://www.fotobella.com/stamperia-soft-clay-160-gr-white">soft white clay</a> is ideal for use in these moulds. Also featured on my layout are other products including Stamperia <a href="https://www.fotobella.com/stamperia-glamour-paste-100-ml-gold">Glamour Paste in gold</a> and <a href="https://www.fotobella.com/Tonic-Studios-Nuvo-Embellishment-Mousse-French-Rose">Nuvo Mousse in French Rose. </a></p><h2 id="31ghc">Passion Mixed Media Scrapbook Layout</h2><p>To start my scrapbook layout, I first made my clay pieces using the moulds and left them to dry. Stamperia recommends at least 24 hours for the clay pieces to dry, and I think this is perfect for the texture moulds. However, for the soft moulds, I will leave my pieces to dry for 48 hours due to their thickness. Each of my clay pieces is brushed with the gold Glamour Paste first, and then I will use my finger to add the French Rose Nuvo Mousse to the raise areas for extra color. </p><figure class="image strchf-type-image regular strchf-size-regular strchf-align-center"><picture><source srcset="https://images.storychief.com/account_3554/IMG_2224_43e38cebb330267379f8d3201bf15b7e_800.jpeg 1x, https://images.storychief.com/account_3554/IMG_2224_43e38cebb330267379f8d3201bf15b7e_1600.jpeg 2x" media="(max-width: 768px)" /><source srcset="https://images.storychief.com/account_3554/IMG_2224_43e38cebb330267379f8d3201bf15b7e_800.jpeg 1x, https://images.storychief.com/account_3554/IMG_2224_43e38cebb330267379f8d3201bf15b7e_1600.jpeg 2x" media="(min-width: 769px)" /><img alt="Stamperia Texture Mould" src="https://images.storychief.com/account_3554/IMG_2224_43e38cebb330267379f8d3201bf15b7e_800.jpeg" /></picture></figure><p>As I wait for my clay pieces to dry, I will add the corner decorative chips, string of pearls, and white trim around the border of my page.

Then, I will add some of the lace decorative chips and fussy cut heart image to the top corner as an embellishment.</p><p>As you can see, this scrapbook layout is relatively simple, with plenty of white space. But, it allows the focus to be on the main photo as well as the clay pieces from the texture mould. I hope it gives you inspiration for using your own texture moulds in a scrapbook layout. Don’t forget to go to the <a href="http://www.fotobella.com">FotoBella online store</a> to pick up some texture moulds, clay, and the Stamperia Passion collection today.</p><p>Until next time, happy crafting!</p><p>~Kristine, FotoBella Design Team</p>

It’s Kristine and I’m back today with one more project using the Simple Stories Card Kit. For today’s project, I will show you how to turn your card kit into a mini album! It’s pretty easy to do, and the finished project is so cute! I’ll be using the Simple Stories <a href="https://www.fotobella.com/simple-stories-simple-cards-card-kit-so-sweet">So Sweet Card Kit</a>, which features the Lemon Twist collection. However, you can make this mini album using any one of the Simple Stories card kits!</p><p>Aside from the card kit, you will need matching cardstock. Since my card bases are white, I will use white cardstock and I grabbed some scraps from my scrap pile. Also, we will be using ribbon to tie the mini album closed and for the tops of our tags. Finally, I will use some of the <a href="https://www.fotobella.com/search.asp#query=lemon%20twist%20Washi%20tape&showed=20&page=0">Lemon Twist Washi Tape</a> on a few of my pages.</p><h3 id="1cjq2">Building the Mini Album Base</h3><p>To begin, crease four cards on the score lines. Then, cut three pieces out of cardstock measuring 1 1/4” x 5 1/2”. Score each piece at 1/2” and 3/4” and fold to create a gusset and hinges.</p><figure class="image strchf-type-image regular strchf-size-regular strchf-align-center"><picture><source srcset="https://images.storychief.com/account_3554/IMG_2076_271b3ebfeb6fbfd25ab2456f2fd6147a_800.jpeg 1x, https://images.storychief.com/account_3554/IMG_2076_271b3ebfeb6fbfd25ab2456f2fd6147a_1600.jpeg 2x" media="(max-width: 768px)" /><source srcset="https://images.storychief.com/account_3554/IMG_2076_271b3ebfeb6fbfd25ab2456f2fd6147a_800.jpeg 1x, https://images.storychief.com/account_3554/IMG_2076_271b3ebfeb6fbfd25ab2456f2fd6147a_1600.jpeg 2x" media="(min-width: 769px)" /><img src="https://images.storychief.com/account_3554/IMG_2076_271b3ebfeb6fbfd25ab2456f2fd6147a_800.jpeg" /></picture></figure><p>Next, adhere the 1/2” tab to the back side of the first card so the score line of the cardstock piece is aligned with the score line of the card. Do not add adhesive to the 1/4” section. Then, adhere the second 1/2” tab to the front of the next card, aligning the score line of the piece to the left edge of the card. </p><figure class="image strchf-type-image regular strchf-size-regular strchf-align-center"><picture><source srcset="https://images.storychief.com/account_3554/IMG_2078_404e7af9c53d870f782631955d96bf5d_800.jpeg 1x, https://images.storychief.com/account_3554/IMG_2078_404e7af9c53d870f782631955d96bf5d_1600.jpeg 2x" media="(max-width: 768px)" /><source srcset="https://images.storychief.com/account_3554/IMG_2078_404e7af9c53d870f782631955d96bf5d_800.jpeg 1x, https://images.storychief.com/account_3554/IMG_2078_404e7af9c53d870f782631955d96bf5d_1600.jpeg 2x" media="(min-width: 769px)" /><img alt="mini album construction" src="https://images.storychief.com/account_3554/IMG_2078_404e7af9c53d870f782631955d96bf5d_800.jpeg" /></picture><figcaption>Type caption (optional)</figcaption></figure><p>Once finished, you should have a small 1/4” gusset between the two cards.

I will be using a black and white checkered ribbon that matches the patterned papers.

Then, select the strip with newsprint and black edge. Score at 1/8” from both ends to create a piece to cover the spine.

Then, decide which order you would like to have your papers. I will alternate the teal background papers with the yellow ones. Adhere each of the papers to the pages in the mini album.</p><p>For photo mats, cut two of the leftover card bases into eight mats measuring 2 3/4” x 3 3/4”. To do this, first measure 3 3/4” and cut off the fold in the card to make two pieces. Then cut each piece in half at 2 3/3”. One photo mat will be attached to the front of each page. Also, I will be using the <a href="https://www.fotobella.com/graphic-45-classic-black-inkpad">Graphic 45 Classic Black Ink Pad</a> for the edges of my mats to help them stand out on my mini album pages. Then, each page in the mini album will be decorated using pieces from the Simple Stories card kit. The gallery below will show each of my pages.</p><figure class="gallery regular"><div class="strchf-gallery"><div class="strchf-gallery-preloader" style="background-color:#f8f8f8;line-height: 0;margin-top: 40px;padding: 30% 0;text-align: center;width: 100%;"><div style="background:url(data:image/gif;base64,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);

I will add some ribbon to the top of each photo mat so it sticks out of the top of the mini album. With the leftover pieces from the card kit, decorate the photo mats.

It’s Kristine and I’m back again today with another Simple Stories page kit for you. In the last post, I shared how to use the <a href="https://www.fotobella.com/simple-stories-simple-pages-page-kit-beachy">Beachy</a> page kit mostly following the directions with some extras. These page kits are ideal for the beginner scrapbooker to learn about page design. Today, I will show you how to can take one of the page kits and rearrange the layouts to make your own unique look. The best part: everything still coordinates since it’s from the same kit!</p><p>For this tutorial, I will show you how to mix and match the two double page layouts from the <a href="https://www.fotobella.com/simple-stories-simple-pages-page-kit-homegrown">Homegrown</a> page kit. This is a great way to advance your scrapbooking skills while personalizing the layouts. With the Homegrown page kit, you will receive four 12 x 12 background papers, 33 carddtock die cut pieces, and 16 chipboard die cut pieces. Since I also have leftovers from the Simple Stories <a href="https://www.fotobella.com/simple-stories-simple-cards-card-kit-love-grows-here">Love Grows Here</a> card kit (there’s a recent blog post about it), I will use a few of them in my layout. However, if you do not have the card kit, you can use the pieces from the page kit.</p><figure class="image strchf-type-image regular strchf-size-regular strchf-align-center"><picture><source srcset="https://images.storychief.com/account_3554/IMG_1982_6e8483a1bcbfdb4ebc2541510a67bf76_800.jpeg 1x, https://images.storychief.com/account_3554/IMG_1982_6e8483a1bcbfdb4ebc2541510a67bf76_1600.jpeg 2x" media="(max-width: 768px)" /><source srcset="https://images.storychief.com/account_3554/IMG_1982_6e8483a1bcbfdb4ebc2541510a67bf76_800.jpeg 1x, https://images.storychief.com/account_3554/IMG_1982_6e8483a1bcbfdb4ebc2541510a67bf76_1600.jpeg 2x" media="(min-width: 769px)" /><img alt="Page Kit" src="https://images.storychief.com/account_3554/IMG_1982_6e8483a1bcbfdb4ebc2541510a67bf76_800.jpeg" /></picture></figure><h3 id="d1f88">Rearranging the Layouts in the Page Kit</h3><p>You may be asking why I would rearrange the layouts in a pre-made kit. Sometimes, there may be a certain embellishment that does not fit the type of layout you want to make. For me, the cow image on the second layout does not work with my theme. Other times, you may like elements from one layout with elements from the second layout. In my case, I like the first page of one layout and the second page of the other layout. My solution is to combine the page with “Family” and the page with “Together” into one layout. Then, I will create the second layout from the remaining pieces.</p><figure class="image strchf-type-image regular strchf-size-regular strchf-align-center"><picture><source srcset="https://images.storychief.com/account_3554/IMG_1980_4116025135f5b0f3c37d76ef0548f91a_800.jpeg 1x, https://images.storychief.com/account_3554/IMG_1980_4116025135f5b0f3c37d76ef0548f91a_1600.jpeg 2x" media="(max-width: 768px)" /><source srcset="https://images.storychief.com/account_3554/IMG_1980_4116025135f5b0f3c37d76ef0548f91a_800.jpeg 1x, https://images.storychief.com/account_3554/IMG_1980_4116025135f5b0f3c37d76ef0548f91a_1600.jpeg 2x" media="(min-width: 769px)" /><img src="https://images.storychief.com/account_3554/IMG_1980_4116025135f5b0f3c37d76ef0548f91a_800.jpeg" /></picture></figure><p>To begin, I will add all of the pieces to the “Family” layout. Rather than using the photo size in the page kit instructions, I will make my own photo mat sizes. Mine measure 3 1/2” x 5 ” for the landscape mat, and 3” squares for the smaller ones. Then, the “home grown” sentiment is a leftover piece from my card kit.</p><figure class="image strchf-type-image regular strchf-size-regular strchf-align-center"><picture><source srcset="https://images.storychief.com/account_3554/IMG_1981_b121914968e91fb10fc6d62bd7b9a842_800.jpeg 1x, https://images.storychief.com/account_3554/IMG_1981_b121914968e91fb10fc6d62bd7b9a842_1600.jpeg 2x" media="(max-width: 768px)" /><source srcset="https://images.storychief.com/account_3554/IMG_1981_b121914968e91fb10fc6d62bd7b9a842_800.jpeg 1x, https://images.storychief.com/account_3554/IMG_1981_b121914968e91fb10fc6d62bd7b9a842_1600.jpeg 2x" media="(min-width: 769px)" /><img src="https://images.storychief.com/account_3554/IMG_1981_b121914968e91fb10fc6d62bd7b9a842_800.jpeg" /></picture></figure><p>Moving on to the second page, I will add the yellow background paper to the left side of the page rather than the right. Next, I will remove the black and white print paper. The two border strips will match the first page. Then, I will cut two photo mats: one measuring 4” x 6” and the other measuring 3 1/2” x 5”. From the original “Together” layout, I will use all of the die cut pieces to embellish the layout. However, I will arrange them differently and also add the circular die cut pieces in the bottom right corner.</p><figure class="image strchf-type-image regular strchf-size-regular strchf-align-center"><picture><source srcset="https://images.storychief.com/account_3554/IMG_1983_7f6d54daad3a88e8bd9eec125d519801_800.jpeg 1x, https://images.storychief.com/account_3554/IMG_1983_7f6d54daad3a88e8bd9eec125d519801_1600.jpeg 2x" media="(max-width: 768px)" /><source srcset="https://images.storychief.com/account_3554/IMG_1983_7f6d54daad3a88e8bd9eec125d519801_800.jpeg 1x, https://images.storychief.com/account_3554/IMG_1983_7f6d54daad3a88e8bd9eec125d519801_1600.jpeg 2x" media="(min-width: 769px)" /><img alt="Homegrown Page Kit" src="https://images.storychief.com/account_3554/IMG_1983_7f6d54daad3a88e8bd9eec125d519801_800.jpeg" /></picture><figcaption>Type caption (optional)</figcaption></figure><h3 id="72bcu">Homegrown Layout #2</h3><p>For the lefthand page, I will use the design included in the page kit with a few minor adjustments.

First, I will add the leftover piece of black and white paper from the first layout to the lefthand side of the page. Next, I will cut two 3 1/2” square photo mats for that section. The larger photo mat measures 4” x 6”. Most of the embellishments are from the original layout with the barn, but they are arranged differently. I did not include the cow die cut, and added the produce die cut along with several leftover pieces from my card kit.</p><figure class="image strchf-type-image regular strchf-size-regular strchf-align-center"><picture><source srcset="https://images.storychief.com/account_3554/IMG_1979_6080e6c2f50599af61cc9d818cee72ea_800.jpeg 1x, https://images.storychief.com/account_3554/IMG_1979_6080e6c2f50599af61cc9d818cee72ea_1600.jpeg 2x" media="(max-width: 768px)" /><source srcset="https://images.storychief.com/account_3554/IMG_1979_6080e6c2f50599af61cc9d818cee72ea_800.jpeg 1x, https://images.storychief.com/account_3554/IMG_1979_6080e6c2f50599af61cc9d818cee72ea_1600.jpeg 2x" media="(min-width: 769px)" /><img src="https://images.storychief.com/account_3554/IMG_1979_6080e6c2f50599af61cc9d818cee72ea_800.jpeg" /></picture></figure><p>I hope this post has given you some inspiration for how you can rearrange a pre-made a page kit. It can be quite useful if the embellishments don’t quite match your photos or the look you want to achieve. It can also be fun to design your own layout using just the supplies from the page kit! Head over to the <a href="http://www.fotobella.com">FotoBella online store</a> today to pick up a Simple Stories page kit and give it a try!</p><p>Until next time, happy crafting!</p><p>~Kristine, FotoBella Design Team</p>

It’s Kristine and today I want to share another tip for any crafters new to scrapbooking. Simple Stories page kits are perfect for introducing the newbie scrapbooker to the art of making layouts. When you are new to a craft, it can often feel overwhelming to know where to start, what to buy, and how to put it all together. Let’s take a look at the Simple Stories <a href="https://www.fotobella.com/simple-stories-simple-pages-page-kit-beachy">Beachy</a> page kit as an example.</p><p>Within the page kit, you will receive all of the supplies to make two double page layouts. There are four 12 x 12 background papers, 54 die cut pieces, and 19 chipboard pieces. Also, the page kit contains instructions for putting together the two sample layouts. The nice thing about these page kits is you can follow the instructions exactly and have great scrapbook pages. Or, you can switch things up a bit and make them your own! However, if you are new to scrapbooking, these page kits will show you how to layer pieces on a layout in a cohesive way.</p><figure class="image strchf-type-image regular strchf-size-regular strchf-align-center"><picture><source srcset="https://images.storychief.com/account_3554/IMG_1936_e1bc61569aae8b4f7a160b71a1f2be0a_800.jpg 1x, https://images.storychief.com/account_3554/IMG_1936_e1bc61569aae8b4f7a160b71a1f2be0a_1600.jpg 2x" media="(max-width: 768px)" /><source srcset="https://images.storychief.com/account_3554/IMG_1936_e1bc61569aae8b4f7a160b71a1f2be0a_800.jpg 1x, https://images.storychief.com/account_3554/IMG_1936_e1bc61569aae8b4f7a160b71a1f2be0a_1600.jpg 2x" media="(min-width: 769px)" /><img src="https://images.storychief.com/account_3554/IMG_1936_e1bc61569aae8b4f7a160b71a1f2be0a_800.jpg" /></picture></figure><p>Let’s work on the some layouts using the Beachy kit! I will also be using one of my Graphic 45 ink pads - <a href="https://www.fotobella.com/graphic-45-peachy-pink-inkpad">Peachy Pink</a>. These ink pads are an easy way to liven up your layouts. Also, I love to use gems on my layouts so I’ll grab some matching ones from my stash. These <a href="https://www.fotobella.com/buttons-galore-doo-dads-ocean-air">doodads</a> from Buttons Galore & More would be cute with the collection, too! Also, I will be using <a href="https://www.fotobella.com/tombow-double-sided-3d-foam-tape">foam tape</a> to add dimension to some of my embellishments.</p><h3 id="99nf9">Beachy Layout #1</h3><figure class="image strchf-type-image regular strchf-size-regular strchf-align-center"><picture><source srcset="https://images.storychief.com/account_3554/IMG_1963_ab56c3131b9a1aa8daa5b6b44196f1bc_800.jpeg 1x, https://images.storychief.com/account_3554/IMG_1963_ab56c3131b9a1aa8daa5b6b44196f1bc_1600.jpeg 2x" media="(max-width: 768px)" /><source srcset="https://images.storychief.com/account_3554/IMG_1963_ab56c3131b9a1aa8daa5b6b44196f1bc_800.jpeg 1x, https://images.storychief.com/account_3554/IMG_1963_ab56c3131b9a1aa8daa5b6b44196f1bc_1600.jpeg 2x" media="(min-width: 769px)" /><img alt="Beachy Page Kit by Simple Stories" src="https://images.storychief.com/account_3554/IMG_1963_ab56c3131b9a1aa8daa5b6b44196f1bc_800.jpeg" /></picture></figure><p>For the first layout, I will follow the directions that come in the Simple Stories page kit.

It’s Kristine and this month I’ll be showing you several projects that I make with the Simple Stories kits. If you’re new to these kits, Simple Stories makes a card kit and a page kit. Each card kit comes with all of the supplies you will need to create 8 cards. Likewise, the page kit comes with all of the supplies to create two double page layouts.</p><figure class="image strchf-type-image regular strchf-size-regular strchf-align-center"><picture><source srcset="https://images.storychief.com/account_3554/IMG_1931_e7c4d0564a64d5571f5042c57109577a_800.jpeg 1x, https://images.storychief.com/account_3554/IMG_1931_e7c4d0564a64d5571f5042c57109577a_1600.jpeg 2x" media="(max-width: 768px)" /><source srcset="https://images.storychief.com/account_3554/IMG_1931_e7c4d0564a64d5571f5042c57109577a_800.jpeg 1x, https://images.storychief.com/account_3554/IMG_1931_e7c4d0564a64d5571f5042c57109577a_1600.jpeg 2x" media="(min-width: 769px)" /><img alt="Simple Stories Love Grows Here Card Kit" src="https://images.storychief.com/account_3554/IMG_1931_e7c4d0564a64d5571f5042c57109577a_800.jpeg" /></picture></figure><p>For the beginner card maker or scrapbooker, these kits are fabulous and I’ll tell you why. First, it can be overwhelming as a newbie to pick supplies for a project. The Simple Stories card kit and page kit take away the pressure. All of the elements in the kit match and have a theme. Second, beginners sometimes struggle with layering various pieces of the collection. Again, the Simple Stories kits make it easy because they provide instructions for creating the sample cards and layouts! And finally, the card and page kits can help the beginner crafter to understand how to design a card or page with various elements.</p><p>Often, many crafters struggle to add layers to projects without losing site of their photos (on layouts) or sentiments (on cards). The Simple Stories kits really can help with the process of learning layering!</p><figure class="image strchf-type-image regular strchf-size-regular strchf-align-center"><picture><source srcset="https://images.storychief.com/account_3554/IMG_1935_0a03d81f8e23ce3eb932efc4567072c7_800.jpeg 1x, https://images.storychief.com/account_3554/IMG_1935_0a03d81f8e23ce3eb932efc4567072c7_1600.jpeg 2x" media="(max-width: 768px)" /><source srcset="https://images.storychief.com/account_3554/IMG_1935_0a03d81f8e23ce3eb932efc4567072c7_800.jpeg 1x, https://images.storychief.com/account_3554/IMG_1935_0a03d81f8e23ce3eb932efc4567072c7_1600.jpeg 2x" media="(min-width: 769px)" /><img src="https://images.storychief.com/account_3554/IMG_1935_0a03d81f8e23ce3eb932efc4567072c7_800.jpeg" /></picture></figure><h2 id="8a8ud">Love Grows Here Card Kit by Simple Stories</h2><p>For today’s project, I will be using the <a href="https://www.fotobella.com/simple-stories-simple-cards-card-kit-love-grows-here">Love Grows Here card kit</a>. It includes 8 cardstock bases along with 28 chipboard pieces and 70 die cut pieces. Simple Stories makes it simple to create their cards! Simply grab your glue bottle and follow the instructions provided! However, you can also add some extra embellishments to make the cards unique. Other embellishments from the collection such as <a href="https://www.fotobella.com/simple-stories-simple-vintage-farmhouse-garden-decorative-brads">brads</a> and enamel dots are easy add-ons. And ribbon or twine from your stash are always a nice touch.</p><p>If you are brand new to card making, welcome! We all start out as newbies, so let’s start on those cards from the kit. Before I assemble anything, I like to punch out all of the pieces in my Simple Stories kit. This makes the assembly process much quicker. Then, I will place the pieces onto each card front before adhering anything down. </p><figure class="image strchf-type-image regular strchf-size-regular strchf-align-center"><picture><source srcset="https://images.storychief.com/account_3554/IMG_1938_edd9e5ddb6763e7b18a6aba08aaa92a2_800.jpeg 1x, https://images.storychief.com/account_3554/IMG_1938_edd9e5ddb6763e7b18a6aba08aaa92a2_1600.jpeg 2x" media="(max-width: 768px)" /><source srcset="https://images.storychief.com/account_3554/IMG_1938_edd9e5ddb6763e7b18a6aba08aaa92a2_800.jpeg 1x, https://images.storychief.com/account_3554/IMG_1938_edd9e5ddb6763e7b18a6aba08aaa92a2_1600.jpeg 2x" media="(min-width: 769px)" /><img alt="Simple Stories card kit" src="https://images.storychief.com/account_3554/IMG_1938_edd9e5ddb6763e7b18a6aba08aaa92a2_800.jpeg" /></picture></figure><p>At this stage, it is time to decide whether you want to assemble the cards exactly as the directions in the Simple Stories card kit show. Or, you might want to add a few extras such as ribbon, twine, or <a href="https://www.fotobella.com/kaisercraft-adhesive-pearls-black">gems</a> like I am doing on my cards. Also, I will use <a href="https://www.fotobella.com/tombow-double-sided-3d-foam-tape">foam tape</a> to add dimension to my card fronts. And finally, I will be using my <a href="https://www.fotobella.com/search.asp#query=graphic%2045%20ink&showed=20&page=0">Graphic 45 ink pads</a> to add more dimension and color to my card pieces.</p><figure class="image strchf-type-image regular strchf-size-regular strchf-align-center"><picture><source srcset="https://images.storychief.com/account_3554/IMG_1940_1aa924e188868e0ef568be9ce649dc0a_800.jpeg 1x, https://images.storychief.com/account_3554/IMG_1940_1aa924e188868e0ef568be9ce649dc0a_1600.jpeg 2x" media="(max-width: 768px)" /><source srcset="https://images.storychief.com/account_3554/IMG_1940_1aa924e188868e0ef568be9ce649dc0a_800.jpeg 1x, https://images.storychief.com/account_3554/IMG_1940_1aa924e188868e0ef568be9ce649dc0a_1600.jpeg 2x" media="(min-width: 769px)" /><img src="https://images.storychief.com/account_3554/IMG_1940_1aa924e188868e0ef568be9ce649dc0a_800.jpeg" /></picture></figure><h3 id="c6vn4">Assembling Your Simple Stories Cards</h3><p>To begin assembling your cards, use the directions provided in your card kit.

These pieces are perfect for adding to the inside of the cards to give a bit of decoration. Also, you can add them to the envelope to dress it up a bit. Or, even better, you can make additional cards using background papers from your stash!</p><p>Especially for the beginner card maker, I hope you have found this post to be helpful in showing you how you can elevate your cards to the next level. With just a few extras, you can take your cards from simple to stunning. Don’t forget to check out the <a href="http://www.fotobella.com">FotoBella online store</a> for all of the other Simple Stories card kits and page kits available.</p><p>Until next time, happy crafting!</p><p>~Kristine, FotoBella Design Team</p>

Chris here and today I am sharing this <strong>Romantic Love Themed Card </strong>I created featuring <a href="https://www.fotobella.com/stamperia-12x12-paper-pad-princess-10-double-sided-sheets">Stamperia Princess Paper Pad</a>. These papers are so beautiful! The colors are simply stunning. There are so many possibilities with these papers. They would also work great for scrapping all those memories from your trendy Bridgerton or period themed parties. </p><p>So let me show you how to create a Love Themed Card. </p><h4 id="dc69j">FotoBella Supplies needed to create your Love Themed Card</h4><p><a href="https://www.fotobella.com/stamperia-12x12-paper-pad-princess-10-double-sided-sheets">Stamperia 12x12 Paper Pad - Princess (10 Double Sided Sheets)</a></p><p><a href="https://www.fotobella.com/stamperia-chipboard-princess-cm-15x30">Stamperia Chipboard - Princess</a></p><h4 id="37r0n">Other Supplies needed</h4><p>Pearl trims, coordinating glitter card stock, heart paper doily, card base</p><h4 id="3sf6v">Creating your Romantic Love Themed Card</h4><p>Start by cutting the paper from your Stamperia Paper Pad slightly smaller than your card base. I have about 1/4” space on all sides, as shown in image. Mat that cut paper onto coordinating glitter card stock. (Just look at how stunning that paper is!) Adhere matted papers to your card base. </p><figure class="image strchf-type-image regular strchf-size-regular strchf-align-center"><picture><source srcset="https://images.storychief.com/account_3554/IMG_2342_766a6324f769228e1b2a6541c6f1b097_800.JPG 1x, https://images.storychief.com/account_3554/IMG_2342_766a6324f769228e1b2a6541c6f1b097_1600.JPG 2x" media="(max-width: 768px)" /><source srcset="https://images.storychief.com/account_3554/IMG_2342_766a6324f769228e1b2a6541c6f1b097_800.JPG 1x, https://images.storychief.com/account_3554/IMG_2342_766a6324f769228e1b2a6541c6f1b097_1600.JPG 2x" media="(min-width: 769px)" /><img alt="Stamperia, fotobella, handmade card, romantic" src="https://images.storychief.com/account_3554/IMG_2342_766a6324f769228e1b2a6541c6f1b097_800.JPG" /></picture></figure><p>Adhere a heart paper doily to card.

It’s Kristine and today’s post is a gift bag tutorial. Also, I will show you how to make a matching tag. It’s a two-for-one tutorial! And the best part - you can use any paper collection to make your gift bag! However, I will be showing you how to make the gift bag and tag using the <a href="https://www.fotobella.com/PhotoPlay-Belle-Fleur-12x12-Collection-Pack">Belle Fleur collection</a> by PhotoPlay.</p><p>In order to make this gift bag, you will need two 12” x 12” pieces of the same cardstock. Next, you will need one 12” x 12” piece of coordinating cardstock for the trim and handles. Next, select some <a href="https://www.fotobella.com/PhotoPlay-Belle-Fleur-Ephemera">ephemera</a> from your paper collection to decorate the bag. Finally, you may choose to use <a href="https://www.fotobella.com/PhotoPlay-Belle-Fleur-Brads-Pack">brads</a> or glue to secure the handles to the gift bag. Supplies for the tag include small pieces of decorative paper, ephemera, <a href="https://www.fotobella.com/PhotoPlay-Belle-Fleur-Chipboard">chipboard stickers</a>, and brads.</p><figure class="image strchf-type-image regular strchf-size-regular strchf-align-center"><picture><source srcset="https://images.storychief.com/account_3554/IMG_1795_e3116c0d98661ca2f11fe0c8e16893cb_800.jpeg 1x, https://images.storychief.com/account_3554/IMG_1795_e3116c0d98661ca2f11fe0c8e16893cb_1600.jpeg 2x" media="(max-width: 768px)" /><source srcset="https://images.storychief.com/account_3554/IMG_1795_e3116c0d98661ca2f11fe0c8e16893cb_800.jpeg 1x, https://images.storychief.com/account_3554/IMG_1795_e3116c0d98661ca2f11fe0c8e16893cb_1600.jpeg 2x" media="(min-width: 769px)" /><img alt="Belle Fleur tag" src="https://images.storychief.com/account_3554/IMG_1795_e3116c0d98661ca2f11fe0c8e16893cb_800.jpeg" /></picture></figure><h2 id="2e29k">Gift Bag Cutting Dimensions</h2><p>There is a full video tutorial below.

Next, use the decorative punch on both long edges of each piece to create the two gift bag handles.</p><figure class="video strchf-type-video regular strchf-size-regular strchf-align-center"><div class="embed-container"><div style="max-width: 100%; position: relative; padding-top: 56.49999999999999%;"><iframe width="200" height="113" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/0_5WT4siieo?feature=oembed" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture" allowfullscreen="" style="position: absolute; top: 0px; left: 0px; width: 100%; height: 100%;"></iframe></div></div></figure><p>I hope you find this tutorial helpful in creating your own gift bags.
