Happy Monday, Happy Day Fifteen, and Happy Blog Candy Day for one lucky scrapbooker!
I've drawn a name from all the comments left on the 31 Pages in 31 Days posts last week, and this person will receive the bundle below. This week we'll be doing the same, and then the fourth week we'll draw for the Grand Prize, which is this bundle PLUS MORE!
Drumroll please…. this week's winner is Amanda C! Please email me at Lyssa@songofmyheartstampers.com with your shipping address. Congratulations!
Today's inspiration page uses my favorite new In Color for the year, Sweet Sugarplum.
We'll be making this layout in Scrapbooking Summer School, making a gloriously inky mess, no doubt! Each of the one-inch strips of Irresistibly Floral specialty papers is sponged to customize, and then the Watercolor Wings butterflies are stamped to coordinate. I used Elegant Eggplant, Dapper Denim and Sweet Sugarplum inks for the sponging.
TODAY'S TIP: We are making great use of this fun "resist" paper during our four weeks of classes! I love how it can be any color you need it to be, so no matter what combo you are using, you always have a pattern to match. Sponging, spritzing, brayering, stamping, even direct-pad-to-paper–any application of ink works. And it's far more economical and time efficient than trying to find papers to match every single spread you want to make. If you haven't tried this paper yet, I encourage you to get a pack and have fun with it!
I'm including a complete supply list today, so you can recreate these pages at home and share your layouts with the #31pagesin31days hashtag or on the Facebook 31 Pages in 31 Days support group. You do not have to be a "Stampin' Up-only" kind of scrapbooker–it's ok! : ) and you do not have to actually be participating in the challenge this month to be a member. All scrappers and Project Lifers are welcome. Hope to see your name on the roster very soon!

Lyssa, you just keep outdoing yourself this year! I think layout is your most beautiful ever. Love the butterflies and open area for any combo of pictures!!
What a gorgeous spread – I really love this color combo. The pages are simple but elegant, allowing the accents to really stand out against the simple cardstock background. This is a new favorite layoutD I think!
Congratulations, Amanda C! Thrilled for you… Such a fun and generous blog candy package! Thanks, Lyssa, for a super fun challenge, with so many beautiful ideas for Scrapbooking and card-making! It is a joy to see more of the Sweet Sugarplum and Dapper Denim color inks.
Your scrapbook pages are so beautiful! 🙂 great inspiration!
Thanks for sharing this idea with the resist paper. I haven’t tried this paper yet & now I want to!
What a great challenge! You’re doing great with getting a spread posted every day. I particularly love this one. The color combo is fabulous.
Oh so fun and I could just see all three patterns on a card – something I would never have thought to try. Using the floral paper and custom coloring to match is such a cool idea! I also like the colors you chose too.
Love the color combo!! You keep inspiring us. Thanks Lyssa!
Love love love these colors! And with 5 granddaughters I’m always looking for ways to change it up, these papers will do the trick!
Thanks for ano great layout!

Love the flutterbies!
