Today I’m going to share a traditional scrapbook layout.  It’s a very spring looking layout.  But outside today we are having a very fall like day.  It’s August in Georgia and we didn’t even reach 70 degrees – the news said it has been a decade since we have had an August day with temperatures this low.

Now on to the scrapbook layout…..

This layout idea came from Wendy Randall – she made hers last spring uses papers and embellishments from the Stampin’ Up! spring catalog.  I changed it to use the Epic Day This & That Designer paper – it was a great pack of paper to use for the layout since it had the greens and blues in it plus some neutrals – Crumb Cake & Basic Gray and a pop of color with the Daffodil Delight.  All of these were perfect colors to use with the For the Birds stamp set.

The images from the For the Birds stamp set were stamped with Black Stazon ink and then water-colored with an aqua-painter and the ink colors.  Then each image was cut out.  I didn’t use the words except for one phrase for the bottom of the layout.

I think I may make some cards with this stamp set and colors – I really like the combination.
