Explore Your World Scrapbook Layout with Charlene Byrd

Hello Bloggers!

Charlene here! Thank you so much for joining me today!

Look at these 2 handsome fellas! My son Hunter and his best friend Adam on the day of their high school prom.  These 2 are about to set off on the great big adventure called life. I am so happy that they have each other to lean on, good friends are rare and hard to find. Life is about making an impact, go off and explore the world and make your mark on it! I am so proud of these men!

I didn’t want the swirl on the bottom of the Explore word so I simply used my Tim Holtz scissors to cut it off (I find they are the best scissors for the job!). Then I rubbed Black Soot Distress ink across it.

I stained the circle frame with Black Soot Distress Stain and then cut it into 2 pieces. I also stained the stars with black Soot.

I was going to add some old book paper to the photo collage but when I pulled out an old book it had the word WORLD in the title. I really liked it! So I took a piece of scotch tape and burnished it over the word and pulled up the tape and voila – I have the word World!

Explore Card by Corina Finley

Hello!

For today's post, I am sharing a layered card with 2 pieces of Southern Ridge Chipboard. For the Pattern paper and colour scheme, I went into my scrap bin. A few years back, I created a mini Album with this paper line and I found numerous left over pieces to use for this card.

For the 2 chipboard pieces, I covered both with Multi Media glue and sprinkled each with Micro Fine Glitter. Royal Red for the Explore Fun Word and Champagne for the Elegant Vintage Flourishes. I allowed it to dry fully before taping the excess off. 

I used a Tag Dies and a set of multi-sized Rectangle Stitched Dies with my Big Shot to cut my paper layers for the card. I added some vintage ephemera to the tag and a piece of green seam binding to the tag.
