What a wonderful week we are having here at Core!
We are just FILLED to the brim with fun stuff for you. And today is another great day..we would like LOVE to introduce you to our September Guest Designer Rebecca Keppel. Rebecca has been a long time fan of Core’dinations and we are so happy to have her with us this month!
Here is a little bit about Rebecca:
In the beginning of 2005 I was a corporate attorney in San Francisco, but then my daughter was born and I became a stay at home mom. I started scrapbooking around that time and found the creative outlet a santity saver to say the least! We moved to Arizona and my son was born in 2007. They are the main stars of my scrapbooking show. I love practicing new photography skills on them and then creating layouts with those pictures. I’ve been blogging for about 4 years now and love sharing projects, ideas and photos on my blog. I also enjoy card making and creating mini albums and gifts for friends and family. I generally think of my style as clean with a focus on the photos, but with a definite fun twist. Two of my favorite additions to layouts are machine sewing and typewritten journaling. Since I started scrapbooking, along with my clean style has been a love of cardstock. I never create a project without at least a little of it. When I first discovered Core’dinations I couldn’t believe the dimension it added to my projects–there was nothing basic about cardstock anymore! I am so thrilled to be here as a guest deisgner and want to thank Core’dinations so much for this opportunity.
So how about a layout???
How cool is this idea?!
Rebecca used her Imaginisce distress tool (you know how much we love our Imaginisce here!) and this Sunburst Crafter’s Workshop Template and created this gorgeous sun! She worked from the front of the Vintage Cardstock because you are distressing it (unlike when we work from the back with scoring).
Wow is this just awesome!
Finish it up with some Jenni Bowlin Core Impressions, title and a few embellies and you have a fabulous layout!
We will have more amazing layouts from Rebecca later in the month so stay close!
Love this technique! Thanks so much for sharing!
Great idea with the distress tool! Why didn’t I think of using it on Core?!!
Fabulous page and love using this technique! Awesome work and welcome to being Guest Designer!
Cool technique! I love the look. I think I need one of those distressing tools!
This is just sooo cool, Rebecca!
You know that I think you rock! You truly do!
Love the layout and the starburst pattern. Hadn’t seen the distress tool before, but now I have to add it to my tool wish list. Thanks
Rebecca, this is fabulous! The layout is so eye catching, especially with that beautiful sun. Thanks for sharing your technique.
