Inspiring Samples by July DT Guest Isabelle Norris and Others!

Hello Everyone,

I posted this yesterday but needed links added, so it's sending to all of you on the subscriber list today.

I have some fantastic samples to show you today! Isabelle Norris is our guest designer this month and she has created some fabulous projects with matching ensemble and color pallets to inspire you!   We are super busy getting ready for the CHA Show later this month. Our class that DT Leader Vicki Chrisman is teaching has sold out but we will have a make & take table for retailers (booth 1407) and DT member Michele Kovack is coming to CHA and is helping us part time!  I'm so excited about some of our NEW CHA releases I will be able to share

BIO on Isabelle Norris

I'm French, married to a British and we have 3 children. I lived in the UK for 13 years and we moved to Canada in December 2008. I LOVE it here, don't want to go back!  Stamps and inks are my true passion. I started stamping and scrapbooking about 7 years ago. I became addicted to inks and wrote a book about Distress inks (in French) in 2007: Les Encres, Carterie et Scrapbooking and I've have been teaching workshops in Europe and here in Canada for the last 4 1/2 years.

Cont'd....    "I love altering and am now using all sorts of mediums: variety of inks, paints & pastes. I also love working with canvas, metal, vintage stamps and images. Although I prefer the vintagy/shabby look, I like trying all sorts of styles as there is always a technique to discover or something new to try on the way".

Look at these cute matching projects Isabelle created using a mix of our Fishing Buds Stamp Set and the Seaside stamps and damask design is from our Cupcake Party stamp set. You can see more details HERE on Isabelle's blog

Here, she used our Kewpies Clear Art Stamps and the Seaside and damask designs are from our Cupcake Party set as well. I love the way she changed colors and brought it all together in a set

On this mini layout Isabelle did with her kids she also used our Kewpies Clear Art Stamp set to embellish her page with a whimsical theme. I will have more samples by Isabelle in my next post.

Talking about kewpies, I spotted this adorable card on Michele Kovacks blog using an image from our Homemade Journal Notes Booklet. It turned out so cheery! Details HERE on Michele's Blog

Look at these pretty charms DT Leader Vicki Chrisman did using the new charms that Fancy Pants has with our new double sided Birds & Blossoms Scraps! Vicki has details HERE on her blog

DT  member Marisa Grosson altered a simple shipping tag using our Art Studio Clear Art Stamp set and inks and got great color blending. You can get the details HERE on Marisa's blog

Love this cute card DT member Julie Campbell created using an image from our Summertime Booklet! Details HERE on Julies blog  and another sample

More samples from the DT ladies at scrapping.no and I adore this postcard Wenche Jensen created using an image from our Family Postcard set. See more samples HERE!

 Here is another image from the Best Buds Vintage Postcard Kit.  She cut the girl image out, added wings and mounted her to one of the 6 large chipboard backs in the kit.

 I love the stamped back of this postcard!

You can see more samples HERE on the scrapping.no site by Yasmin Tölche and Lina Nilsestuen.

The image of the little girl is from our Summertime Booklet

Jan Hennings is hosting the challenge this week over at Splitcoast to use any of our products to create a recipe card or layout. The gallery was just started HERE - so you can still join in the fun!

That's all until next time. We are heading out to watch a friends daughter, Colleen Rennison preform tonight and she is one of our favorite singers. One day we believe she will be a superstar!

Wishing you joy & creativity
