Explore Card with Katelyn Grosart

Hey Southern Ridge Trading Company fans, Katelyn here. Travelling has become such a big part of our lives these days, that going away for a long trip, isn't as common as it used to be. In light of those special people in your lives that are going away on a long trip, why not create a card and give one to them to celebrate the fact. To inspire you, I've created this fun Explore card. You'll want to read below as I share with you how to embellish the chipboard pieces for my Explore Card at home.

From the Create, Explore, Relax set, cut out the Explore word. Using a blending tool with foam, blend Walnut Stain Distress Oxide Ink over the entire surface of the word.

Next, you'll need the Sm. World Globe.

From the Plain Banners, you'll need three banners. I traced the banners around two pieces of patterned paper. Cut the three banners out. Adhere the paper banners to the chipboard banners and punch holes through the top of the banners. Ink the edges of the banners using Walnut Stain Distress Oxide Ink and a blending tool with foam.

The last chipboard piece you'll need the large frame from the Abstract Frame Set. Using a blending tool with foam, blend Antique Linen Distress Oxide Ink over the entire surface of the frame. Apply Emboss It Ink to the frame and sprinkle Tidal Lotus embossing powder over the entire surface of the frame. Tap off the excess powder and emboss with a heat tool.

Cut three patterned paper pieces that measure 4 1/4" x 5 1/4", 4 1/2" x 5 1/2" and 4 3/4" x 5 3/4" to mount in behind of the frame. Once the frame is mounted over top of the image, adhere the banner through the top left hand hand corner of the frame. Adhere a large white rose and two coral roses above the banner.

Adhere the Explore word to the bottom portion of the frame. Adhere a coral and a mint rose to the left side of the E in the explore word. In the bottom right hand corner of the frame, adhere one large white rose, two coral roses, two mint roses and two small white roses.

Adhere the globe above the flowers. Add embellishments from the paper collection as desired. Adhere two coral roses and one mint rose above the globe.

Here are a few closeup photos of the finished card.

Here is the finished Explore Card.

Seaside Scrapbook Layout with Katelyn Grosart

Hey Southern Ridge Trading Company fans, Katelyn here. The weather here on the west cost of Canada has been nice and sunny, which has me thinking that Spring and Summer will be here soon. With the thought of warm weather on my mind, I've created this Seaside Scrapbook Layout for today's project. You'll want to read below as I share with you how to embellish the chipboard pieces for my layout.

To start, you'll need three Mini Wood Sand Dollars and the Seaside Wood Word.

Trim the Loopy Strip down to 10". Apply Emboss It Ink to the loopy strip and sprinkle Salted Navy Embossing Powder over top. Tap off the excess powder and emboss with a heat tool.

Next, you'll need three Mini Wood Clam Shell and the Clock Frame. Apply Emboss It Ink to the clam shells and clock frame. Sprinkle Dirty Sand Embossing Powder over top of the frame and clam shells. Tap off the excess powder and emboss with a heat tool.

Cut the Wave pattern into three pieces that measure 2" x 2". Apply two coats of Chipped Sapphire Distress Paint to the wave patterns. Set aside to dry.

Take two Plain Banners out of the package. Apply Emboss It Ink to the banners. Sprinkle Iceberg Embossing Powder over top of the banners. Tap off the excess powder and emboss with a heat tool.

Lastly, you'll need five Mini Wood Starfish. Apply two coats of Cherish Americana Decor Chalky Finish Paint to all five starfish.

In amongst the fussy cut images of flowers and starfish, I adhered three clamshells, three starfish and two sand dollars.

Behind the photo mat, I adhere the two plain banners in the bottom right corner. The Seaside tittle was adhered over top of the banner paper strips.

In behind the photo, the loopy strip and clock frame were adhered. In amongst the fussy cut flowers is one clam shell and two starfish.

Adhere the orange patterned paper piece to a navy patterned paper piece. In the bottom, left and top sides of the orange patterned paper, tear the paper up. To add some interest in behind the orange pattern paper piece, adhere three wave patterns in the three locations to the navy patterned paper.

And here is the finish Seaside Scrapbook Layout with all of the chipboard elements put together.

Journey Mini Album with Katelyn Grosart

Hey Southern Ridge Trading Company fans, Katelyn here. For today's post, I'm thrilled to share with you my Journey Mini Album that's perfect to add your own photos to or to give as a gift. To embellish my Journey Mini Album, I featured a variety of our popular and western themed chipboard pieces. You'll want to read below as I share with you how I embellished the chipboard pieces for my mini album.

Here's the front cover of my mini album. For the base of my mini album, I used the plain chipboard mini album available on our website. The mini album measures 3 7/8" x 7 3/4".

To embellish around the photo, I used the Oval Chain Frame and three Mini Wood Horseshoes. The oval chain has two coats of Walnut Stain Distress Paint on it and the mini wood horseshoes were left plain. For the Journey Fun Word, I embossed it using Burnt Copper Leaves.

To embellish the top right side of my mini album, I used three Plain Banner and covered them with patterned paper.

Here's page 1 & 2.

To embellish the left side of Page 1, I cut out one of the cowboy boots from the Boots. I embossed it using Burnt Copper Leaves Embossing Powder. I chose one of the horses comes from the Horse Mix. To colour the horse, I used two coats of Walnut Stain Distress Paint.

To embellish the photo mat I used the Elegant Vintage Flourishes and Wood Horse Shoes. The elegant vintage flourish is embossed with the Weathered Wood Embossing Powder and the two wood horse shoes are embossed with Burnt Copper Leaves Embossing Powder. To add some extra interest to the flourish I added some flowers. To embellish around the two horse shoes, I added some fussy cut images and flowers.

Here's page 3 & 4.

In the top left corner of the photo mat I layered a Elegant Vintage Flourish embossed with Weathered Wood Embossing Powder and a Wood Horse Shoe embossed with Burnt Copper Leaves Embossing Powder. To decorate the banner, I blended Ground Espresso Distress Ink over two Mini Wood Horse Shoes.

For page four, I repeated the same embellishments. This time the flourish and wood horse shoe is in the bottom right hand corner of the photo. Add two more wood horse shoes to the banner at the top of the page.

Here's page 5 & 6.

For the bottom of the photo mat, I embossed an Elegant Vintage Flourish with Burnt Copper Leaves Embossing Powder. Once the flourish was adhered at the bottom of the photo mat, I added a few flowers.

On the same page in the top left hand corner, I added two Mini Wood Horse Shoes which I blended Ground Espresso Distress Ink on to.

On page.6 I used the Scroll Borders and two Wood Horse Shoes. I blended Ground Espresso Distress Ink over the Scroll border. To embellish the Wood Horse Shoes, I embossed Burnt Copper Leaves Embossing Powder. I adhere the border down first and then the horse shoes over top of it.
