Scrapbook layout converts to tag! CTC#582


Hello and Welcome to Handmade by Julia Quinn.


Tonight you get to enjoy our amazing CASEING the CATTY blog hop.  To CASE is to Copy And Share Everything or to Copy And Selectively Edit and we love to CASE from our amazing Stampin' Up! catalogues (catty!)



This week, we are CASEING a scapbooking layout!!! 


I've used the above layout as my starting point to make a fun tag using the same colours, and the basic layout from where the photo is featured on the page.  


I've added in the All Aflutter stamp set featuring the gorgeous butterflies, as well as the Simply Leaves set.


The black feature butterflies are from the Floral Flight Accents which will be coming back in stock in mid September.  


Up next is the extraordinary Peta

Fun Fold Fun - Let's Craft Together!!



Hello and Welcome to Handmade by Julia Quinn.


Tonight I'm hopping with an awesome bunch of talented Australian crafters who love sharing with you!!



This month our theme is the Fun Fold Birthday!!  


I love this Triple Flap Fold!!  It's so lovely to adapt for so many different occasions!!  


And the stunningly gorgeous Moonlit Flora paper works perfectly with it!!  


I think this is a card that is reasonably gender neutral.  If you're interested in a tutorial for this card, it will be the free gift for all my customers in September!!

Fun designer paper inspiration CTC#581


Hello and Welcome to Handmade by Julia Quinn.


Tonight you get to enjoy our amazing CASEING the CATTY blog hop.  To CASE is to Copy And Share Everything or to Copy And Selectively Edit and we love to CASE from our amazing Stampin' Up! catalogues (catty!)



This week, we are CASEING from the Velvet Meadow Suite, and my project is totally inspired by the lovely floral card on the left.  


I like the full coverage of designer paper, but I've taken it a step further and created a fun fold.  


I'm using the Waterside Retreat paper and the coordinating Relaxing Waterside bundle.



I folded the paper into a concertina so you can see all those amazing birds!  I've also used the paper to create the posts at each end of the fun fold for the birds to sit on!  


My background cardstock is Azure Afternoon - and I kept the chair blue too which I thought was very adventurous!  


I die cut the reeds from white cardstock and then coloured them using Old Olive and Pecan Pie Stampin' Blends.  


This card is actually one of the three cards in our classes this month celebrating a few different designer papers.  Contact me if you're keen to come to the class!  


Up next is the extraordinary Kathryn
