The Beehive's Latest Arrivals: Premade Scrapbook Pages

NOTE: My shop The Beehive is now Papercut Kitchen! Please visit my shop Papercut Kitchen by clicking here.

I'm really excited about how my newest additions are turning out and hope to be adding a new layout or two per week to my shop. I plan on doing some traditional baby, wedding etc etc and will always do special orders on anything in my shop but mostly I want to be doing more general, all occasion, unique and artful pages. Know anyone who loves scrapbooks but isn't thrilled about scrapbooking? Send them my way! These layouts are completely designed and handmade by me. Just add your pictures, slide them into your scrapbook and voila, you're a scrapper! Click any image to enlarge it or visit the listing by clicking the title link under the image.

Lepidoptera
(′lep·ə′däp·tə·rə)
From Greek lepis — a scale + pteron — a wing

Large order of scaly-winged insects, including the butterflies, skippers, and moths; adults are characterized by two pairs of membranous wings and sucking mouthparts, featuring a prominent, coiled proboscis.

Satisfy the closet entomologist in you with this beautiful vintage style butterfly layout.

Happy

Handmade scrapbook pages make you happy? This one's putting in some happy overtime! Bright flower and dot print papers, coordinating ribbons, rhinestones, brads and fabric flower embellishments make this one cheery layout.


Love Ya' To Death

Love, punk style! This two page layout can be used for pictures and journaling of any person, pet, place or thing you love madly. I must admit, I love this layout to death! Pink, black and red; skulls, hearts, ribbons, and stars, what's not to love! Lots of layers and wonderful textures with a dash of bling.

Etsy Team Love

After our guests left and I started catching up on my internet rounds I had a wonderful surprise waiting for me, I was in two treasuries and both of them were created by my fellow etsy team members! I'm now part of two fantastic teams, AREtsy: Arkansas Artists on Etsy and Etsy Twitter. Here are the treasuries, be sure to check them out before they expire and visit the curator's shops to show some love! Want to see what people in these teams create for their etsy shops?

Boy Little Scrapbook Layout

You know those dreams where you're trying desperately to run but you move like you're running through a beach of molasses? That's the way it's been for me since this weekend. A little bit of everything is getting done but nothing is getting done thoroughly or very well. I have managed to do a few more personal scrapbook pages, yippee! I've decided it's time I wrapped up my 3 year old's baby book for his first year. These pages are from his 8th month, I'm a smidge behind.

I've been intentionally going simple so I can make some progress but as simple as this layout is I really like it. It's some nice rough and tumble boy paper and simple cut from coordinating paper embellishment. The brads holding the stars on the right hand side spell "boy" and under it are sticker letters that spell "little". Boy Little is what we called Lil' Spitfire when he was a baby. It was his super hero name.

I discovered this cool thing over at Your Memories By Design, Saturday Scraplift. It's a little weekly challenge they put out to use one of their designer's layouts as inspiration for your own, then share it with everyone and possibly win a prize, a gift certificate to their shop, gotta love that! So I'm throwing mine into the ring, more for the challenge than the prize, though the prize would be good too! It was a good way to jump start making premade page layouts for my etsy shop. To see the inspiration layout click here.



I turned it into a 2 page spread, here are pics of the other page!

A Smidge O' Pug Love

I guess I've caught the Pug Bug, I'm smitten. This year I'm asking Mr. Cash to be my Valentine.
