I’ve got something different for you today – a 12″x12″ scrapbook layout. This page uses the Picture Perfect Birthday stamp set and the coordinating Picture Perfect Party Designer Paper Stack. The Celebrate You Thinlits were part of the free Sale-A-Bration $100 level offerings but they are coming back! They will be available in the new annual catalog debuting on June 1st.
SPOILER ALERT! This stamp set will be featured in my April Studio Stamps in the Mail which begins on April 11th. Be sure to click HERE to see the pre-ordering details and see sneak peek pictures of the completed cards.
I’ve included written instructions below for those of you using a mobile device. I also have a free PDF tutorial available for those that would like to download and save this project for a later day.
Don’t forget to check out my Project PDF Tutorial Library for more project tutorials that feature complete card collections and fancy folds. Click HERE to view the library. All the supplies can be purchased in my online store. I provide generous ordering REWARDS, too! Details on my REWARDS program can be found HERE.

An unusual project for us crafters to save this week Lisa, but thank you all the same because I am sure that at some point I will want to do some scrapbooking. Scrapbooking is not something I have done before, but never say never! So having this PDF may proved very useful. :O)
