Welcome to the August Stamp of the Month Australasian Blog Hop. This is a circular hop. If you arrived from Nell’s Blog, you are in the right place. Simply read through this post and click on the link to the next blog at the end of it. Keep reading and hopping until you find yourself back where you started from. Each blog will showcase a project featuring the School Year (S1708) stamp set which is August’s Stamp of the Month.
Aren’t these school themed images fabulous? You could use the Back to School next to the annual class photo helping your album to flow from year to year. I know lots of you take first day of school snaps but how fun would it be to also include a last day of school photo alongside it to show how your child has changed over the year?
Now before you say, “I don’t have any school photos to scrapbook”, take a close look at this set. Half the images are generic – a great frame, speech bubble and arrow to go on any layout. The pencil and hearts lend themselves to lots of themes too.
My layout today has nothing to do with school. It is a tribute layout. A tribute layout is all about celebrating your relationship with someone. It’s a chance to record what you love about them and to document some treasured memories. I am starting to add these layouts to my Book of Me album as a way to record those people who have meant a lot to me over the years.
You will find a list of the products used on the layout at the end of this post.
School Year (S1708) is only available during August, 2017. Full retail price is $27 but you can have this gorgeous set for just $7.50 when accompanied by a $75 order. Place your order with your Close To My Heart Consultant.
Did you like this layout? Can you think of a few friends you’d like to honour with a tribute page in your album? I’d love you to leave a comment for me before you click on the underlined link and move on to Colleen’s Blog, Colsies Scrappy Fusions, to see the project she has designed for you.
Happy Scrappin’

I love these “full adhesive” sticky notes.
They sure do make life easier
Shaunna, this is just the sweetest layout. I wish I had done something like this for my kids when they were about 3 or so. Great way to remember all the little things about them.
Thanks Janelle. I wish I’d done that for my kids too. Never too late to start honouring those we love with a tribute page 🙂
This is gorgeous, Shaunna. I love it.
Thanks Linda. I was happy with the way it turned out.
What a fun layout, so colourful.
Such a cute little monkey. It works perfectly with the school stamp. Love it. Lots of fussy cutting must have taken awhile 🙂
Fussy cutting was a breeze cos it’s mostly straight lines 🙂
Love how you used the Punny Pals stamp set with School Years Stamp Set, Shaunna!
I am a bit addicted to Punny Pals – they are finding their way onto every project at the moment!
Love the layouts, Shaunna, absolutely gorgeous.
Thanks Colleen, I was really happy with this one
