ScorPal & VLVS! - Day One

Welcome to a week full of inspiration!

and
 

All week we'll be teaming up with the folks @ Scor-Pal and using their amazing scoring tool in conjunction with Viva Las VegaStamps! rubber stamps!

--Leave comments all week long to be entered to win! Scor-Pal has an original Scor-Pal to give away PLUS a lb o' rubber! And we've got a ScorEnvi plus a lb o' rubber!--

Today I'm sharing with you my own (DeeDee here!) contribution -- A layout! I've been on a 12x12 binge lately using stamps to create most of my backgrounds. 


Yesterday I showed this instagram picture as a sneak peek to today:



I've grabbed one of my recently received 7Dots Studios collections, my Viva Las VegaStamps! Star Pin stamp, and my Scor-Pal. The star was stamped in Archival Ink by ranger. I fussy cut the stars out and then scored them along the inside lines from point to point. This provides easy folding to make the star a 3D embellishment! Fold the points up and the "non points" down. Scrunch together and tada! 


You can see how much DEPTH the star gets in this closeup shot.

and for the full reveal.....


The paper is from 7Dots Studio, random alphas from my stash, black thread (the randomness pattern of the thread is a inspired by our dear Amy Lassiter), washi tape from Gauche Alchemy, chipboard from UmWowStudio, Charcoal Chalkboard mist from Tattered Angels and brads and buttons from My Mind's Eye. The stamps used to create my background include Row of Stars, Carpe the hell, Film Strip, Star Pin and Coffee ring.

The film strip was stamped on the background, and then on each picture. The pictures were cut apart and layered on top of the stamp, creating my own CUSTOM strip of film!

Great layout. It's not overly fussy and the picture (the main element) really stands out.
