Hello, My name is Ardyce Seabrook and I am an artist at heart! I love all things crafty but I am especially passionate about scrapbooking and card making. I started creating about 12 years ago and once I started I haven't been able to stop. My scrapbooking style is pretty much whatever makes my heart content. I usually don’t have a plan, I just go with the flow. My creative flow always gets going with 3 Birds products. My products date back to when 3Birds first aired on HSN. From Ritzy Ribbon, Chick Chipboard, to the Goodie Box Of Embellishments & Sticker Nestables, their line of products always come together to make my pages look stunning. I'm on a mission to make as many scrapbook pages and cards that will decrease my inventory! (Yea Right!) I am a Mother, Wife, Daughter and Sister. I love my family and life. I am so excited to be the Guest Fan this month and truly hope my creations will inspire your next project.



First, I wanted to share my layout I created with the 3 Birds Sticker Flair Kit. It's jammed packed with over 3000 stickers and they are so yummy, gorgeous, and beautiful! With so many choices I instantly knew I wanted to do a banner that included my pictures and as many stickers that it would allow.

First I selected a solid sheet of colored cardstock from the 3 Birds 180 piece Olivia Premium Cardstock Kit. Next I chose stickers that went well with the cardstock. I inked the edges to add dimension to all the stickers then I pop-dotted my photos and stickers that were added to the banner. I created my own flag banners by cutting down 2 long stickers and wrapping them around toothpicks and then I tucked them behind my photos in the center of the page.



I almost never journal, its very rare. I feel the right title and/or subtitles may be all you need to tell your story and explain your pictures. I chose the word "Sisters" as my title. With all the alpha stickers included in the kit I wanted to add a special touch to my title by creating a special word for each letter in the title. It really adds meaning to the pictures in the layout.



Lastly I added a border sticker at the bottom of my page for some foundation and going from the bottom up I added a few quote stickers, some chevron stickers and some bling as my final touch.



I also created a beautiful Summer card with the Sticker Flair Kit as well. I used the leftovers from the sticker sheets that I used on my layout. I inked the edges of these also.

What I usually do (whether it's a layout or card) is lay everything down until I'm satisfied with how it looks or where everything's placed for my design. With stickers I cut each of them out and leave them on their backing. When I'm satisfied with my design I just peel them off of the backing and stick them down. I added some free hand stitching around the card.



One chevron sticker came off the edge of the card on purpose so I could cut it with the shape of the card making it almost look printed on there. I pop-dotted the summer sizzle sticker, tucked a heart sticker behind it with adding some glitter to it. Lastly I added some sequins around the circle floral sticker to complete the card.



It really has been a sizzling summer and I hope you really enjoyed my creations today!

XOXO,
Ardyce
