DCWV February Stackaholic Challenge w Baby Girl Stack & Pazzles

Hello crafty friends,

It’s the last day of the month and that means the final day to play in the Die Cuts With A View Monthly Stackaholic Challenge! This month was a sketch challenge. Here is my project for the layout challenge.

This is the sketch we were to follow.

I used papers from the Baby Girl 2013 Stack.

Here’s a closer look at the border with her name. I designed and cut the border on my Pazzles.  I actually used a piece of paper from the stack and just used the back side of it. So even my “white cardstock” is actually from the same stack. I used some blue Bazzill cardstock for the letters and then some white cardstock for the hearts. I colored the hearts with my Rose Quarts Spectrum Noir Glitter Pens.

Here’s a closer look at the Prima flowers and the cute little tag from a stack of tags by DCWV called White Fern Tag.

I was surprised to see they made a 6 x 6 pad to match this paper. It has some beautiful, soft prints.

Here is the rest of the title. I again created and cut it from my Pazzles. You cannot see in this picture but I did add a little of my Spectrum Noir clear glitter to it. It gave it a real soft sparkle.

Here’s a closer look at my top border. I wove some ribbon through the top of the border and then added some large pearls in between. I thought it gave the layout a nice top with some great added dimension and texture.

Here is one last look at the layout.  The precious little model for this is my beloved friend’s great-granddaughter Clara.  This child is such a cutie patootie! It is an absolute pleasure that I get to scrapbook this little peanut!!!

DCWV February Challenge Cartographer Stack Card

Hello crafty friends,
Today I am sharing a quick post featuring a card I created for the Die Cuts With A View February Stackaholic Challenge. Be sure to head over to their blog and join the fun!  So here is my card:

I used the new DCWV Cartographer Paper Stack. 

I have to say; I wasn’t so enthused with stack when I first saw it. I am not much of a traveler. BUT once I opened it up and looked through, I was inspired. The challenge is to use the sketch they provided.

Here is the sketch.

Here is a closer look at the sentiment. I designed the card with my Pazzles and cut out all the papers. I then embossed the sentiment.


Here’s what the cut looks like right off the mat. Love my Pazzles. Cuts fabulously!


Here’s a look at the side of the mat and I used a stitched mat I created.

Paper House Productions Southwest Adventure & Pazzles Scrapbook Layout Melinda Beltran

Hello crafty friends!
Today I am sharing my second post for the  Paper House Productions design team. I got the opportunity to work with the fantastic Southwest Adventure Paper Crafting Kit.  I decided to create scrapbook layout.  It showcases my beautiful niece Taylor. Here is what I came up with.




Here’s a closer look at the pretty Mosaic Butterfly stickers. I adhered them to some Kraft cardstock. I fussy cut them out of the Kraft cardstock and then used some foam tape to give them some lift. I sprinkled a few sequins around them for a little extra touch.


Here are the feathers I created and cut out. I dipped the tips in some gold glitter. I added one of the colored feathers from the cardstock sticker set included in the kit.


Here’s a closer look at one of the cardstock sticker sayings. I love all the different stickers and sentiments on the sheet.


I used one of the journal cards that is on one side of printed paper. I cut the sentiment out and used some foam tape to give it a little lift.


Here’s a closer look at one of the journaling cardstock stickers. I left it blank so my niece could write her thoughts.



One last look at the completed layout. This layout features a picture of my beautiful niece Taylor. She is such a free spirit and marches to the beat of her own drum. This kit was the perfect choice to compliment her picture.
