More of Old Calendar Scrapbook

I've finished my latest project turning old calendar into a scrapbook album and I LOVE IT! I found it very interesting and addicted, coloring the calendar pages with ink stamps. I combined 2 or 3 colors on a page to create the color nuances of Autumn. My scrapbook theme is AUTUMN IN CONNECTICUT. I took the pictures during Autumn in 2010 and 2011 in several places in Connecticut. It's always lovely when Autumn arrives in New England. New England is an area in the eastern of United States that consists of several states, including Connecticut. This area is famous during Autumn for its colorful foliage. The earlier scrapbook pages have been posted here, OLD CALENDAR SCRAPBOOK and the additional pages you can view below. I will post more of the tutorial to turn old calendar into a scrapbook album later.

Nature Inspired Card Trio

I'm an amateur photographer, so I take a lot of pictures especially as soon as the Spring arrived. I'm always amazed how nature can be the same, but also different in each season. I took that sign as an inspiration when I created a trio of cards using clear stamps as tools. I pretended that I was a painter, using a white cardstock and colorful ink stamps to create each of one a unique card. I added my personal touch through cutting out some areas on the front of the card, that I thought made the card looked more natural almost like the real thing.
