Later Sk8r Squash book

I am teaching another Squash Book class on the 20th.  This time we will be using the CTMH Later Sk8r paper pack X7167B $9.95, Later Sk8r My Stickease Assortment X7167C $4.95.  The stamp sets are Fast and Furious D1541 and the Later Sk8r Workshop On The Go stamp set G1057 $29.95.  These items can be found on pages 44 - 49 in the Spring Summer 2013 Idea book.

Here are pictures of my Later Sk8r Squash book.

This time I made pockets and added tags and photo mats to go into the pockets.  This adds more places to put photos.  This will easily hold 12 photos on the inside and then you have all the triangles you can add photos to also.  Then there is the back side where you can add at least 6 more photos.
I added Gypsy cs to make it a little more feminine so someone could use it for a Mother's day gift.

There are 4 tags for journaling.  I cut them out using the Cricut Artiste cartridge and stamped on both sides.  The one that says It's all GOOD has a piece of the border sticker from the My Stickease Assortment.
 The first tag has part of the border strip that you cut off the edge, that says Hangin' out, also has a gear sticker at the bottom from the My Stickease Assortment.  The second one in also has a sticker from the My Stickease Assortment.

 These are the photo mats and I used the SU Tab Punch and coordinating stamp set.  The cardstock is CTMH Pear and Outdoor Denim.
This class is $15.00 if you would like to take the class, call me 503-708-6889.  I have complete instructions if you have the stamp sets you could order it by mail.  The $15.00 does not include shipping.

Squash Book Class on March 23rd.

Here is the Squash book that we will be making next Saturday.  I decided to use Close To My Heart's Buzz and Bumble paper pack X7164B and the stamp set from the Workshop On The Go kit G1054, Burlap ribbon Z1760 and Twill ribbon which is retired, sorry.  I used Heavy cardboard to start with and tore the corners to make that tattered vintage look. I added some Martha Stewart Microbeads - clear to the centers of the flowers.  I think I need to add some leaves and a little color to the word Seeds.
Here is a closeup of the embellishments.
 This is the inside, now I just have to add pictures.  If you enlarge the pic you can see that the yellow pieces are different, they are the newsprint paper front and back.  
 This is the back side of the book.  You can embellish this side if you are leaving it out for people to look at, or leave it blank, it is up to you.

I will post more pics later.

Squash Book

I had several people asking about a class to make a Squash Book like the one Jean made for Stacy. So I worked on one the other night and this is what I came up with.  I used the new Chantilly papers and cardboard.  I covered the cardboard unlike the one Jean made.

I used pics of Miss Hailey from 2008.  She was having a giggle attack.  She is still the happiest girl I know.

This is the one Jean made for Stacy, I like it way better than the one I just made.  
I guess I'll have to make another one. lol

I will post a tutorial soon.
