So, when I was a little girl, one of my favorite books was Where the Wild Things Are. I’m afraid to see the movie, cause I’m not sure if I’ll like it or not. But, one thing I do like is this amazing scrapbook kit inspired by Where the Wild Things Are by the talented Sarah Barber.
It’s so pretty!!!!
I’m going to be directing Alice in Wonderland next year and am so excited to see this amazing kit by Mel at Scrap that Idea. Check out the delicious colors!
Alice in Wonderland Scrapbooking Kit
Alice in Wonderland Font Letters
Who doesn’t love Steampunk? I don’t know anyone who doesn’t. Here’s as simple a definition as I could find (from The Clockwork Century) . Believe me, it’s much more: Steampunk could be considered a retro-futuristic neo-Victorian sensibility that is being embraced by fiction, music, games, and fashion. It is ornate and vibrant, and intricate. It believes that functional items can and should be beautiful. So, anyway, what could be more beautiful than Steampunk scrapbook kits! This gorgeous kit is by Creative Victorian Designs. I don’t usually put so many pictures, but this is AMAZING. Love it!!!
Sassy Steampunk Scrapbooking Layout Kit
Glitter swirl! They are so cute.
Yay!!! I love pink. If you have a little pretty princess living in your house, you’ll love these letters and numbers as much as I do.
Hotties!
Sorry I’ve been sassy slacking. My world has been busy. So, anyway, I love Bon Scrapatit’s Scrapbook letters and numbers. They’re some of my favorites. Here’s her latest design:

If you have already created layered lettering titles for your pages many time over, and are looking for a more advanced challenge, try paper piecing the layers. In the sample below, I used the Kindergarten Upper and Lower Tracers from EK Success as the base for each of the letters. Then I added additional layers to give each letter an “animated” look. Use the lettering template to help you create each layer to the exact shape of the letters. For example, for the “M”:
1) Trace an Upper “M” from black cardstock.
2) Before you cut the letter out, add two circles (can be traced from other parts of the template, or trace around a circle punched piece) to the top of the letter. Then cut out the whole thing as one piece.
3) Trace and cut an Upper “M” from red cardstock.
4) Cut the red “M” in half and adhere the lower portion to your black “M.”
5) Add two small punched yellow/orange circles to finish the letter.
Continue, using your creativity to decorate each letter. You can follow a logo found at Disney Clipart.com for color and theme ideas for this project.
Tip I: Using the lettering template to make this title makes it significantly faster and easier than simply paper piecing it from scratch.
Tip II: Other words look great in this style. Try your child’s name, the name of the park you visited, or even the date that you traveled.
Pretty pink and orange letters and numbers. I love her designs, check out her site!
Pretty plaids!
Totally amazing and it really works! I love rub ons, but they’re so expensive and you can’t always find them in the font or design you want. So, Scrap Girls (obviously some sassy scrappers) shows us how to make our own.Here’s how:
1. Get an ink-jet transparency.
2. Select your digital embellishment (check out how cool the stitches are in the sample below) and insert the graphic into a Word document or other word processing document.
3. Print on the slick side (yes, that is the WRONG side) of the transparency.
4. Place the transparency on your paper ink-side down and rub the back with a tool of some kind until all of the ink transfers to the paper. (My current favorite paper scrapbooking tools are those little wooden cuticle pusher sticks. They have a pointed end on one side and a flat end on the other. The flat side is perfect for things like this.)
Note: You have to make yourself go STRAIGHT down when you place the transparency and don’t let yourself slide it around. The two stamps samples show what happens if you slide. I slipped on the right-hand one, but went straight down on the left one.
If you have recently been perusing rub-on prices, you will realize immediately that you can save some real money with this idea. And guess what? You won’t run out of these. Want to have stitches on every single layout and card you ever make for the rest of your life?
No problem. Just print and rub away!P.S. Having trouble with your printer and a transparency. Try an 8.5×11 page protector. It works, too!
