Blog Love from the July issue of Scrapbook inspirations

Here are just a few of the websites we've been loving lately, as seen in our July issue.

Michelle Jackson-Mogford's embellished mirror for Banana Frog

* We’re huge fans of UK stamp company Banana Frog so the company blog is a must-visit for us. The busy design team posts loads of ideas using the stamps – everything from scrapbook layouts and cards to jewellery and home décor. Above is a mirror embellished by Michelle Jackson-Mogford.

Layout by Anne Lawrence

* Anne Lawrence’s blog, Pretty, certainly lives up to its name! Never afraid of trying a new technique or challenge, Anne’s style is really inspiring (see the layout above). In a recent post she gave instructions for making scalloped cardstock using the Fiskars ‘Threading water’ punch – great tip!

* Eloise Corr Danch is a Brooklyn-based artist who creates incredible 3D paper flowers. We love her use of colour and the tiny quilled details that build up to create wonderful effects. Take inspiration from her work at eloisecorrdanch.com the beautiful window displays are well worth a look.


July reader gallery call for Scrapbook Inspirations

We are currently looking for your original page designs for a Reader Gallery on the following themes:

Orange
It's the most symbolic colour of autumn, but you don't have to stick to that season - any orange-themed layouts are welcome!

Friendship
Scrapbook layouts make a lovely way to record this most precious of human experiences. Show us how you've captured it and celebrated it.

Email a digital image (please make sure they are not huge files) of your layout at our dedicated address scrapbook.gallery@futurenet.com. Remember to add your choice of theme to the subject line. All we ask is that your layouts are your own work and that you haven't submitted them to any other magazine. ScrapBook inspirations does not accept layouts that have been published elsewhere, that are being considered for publication or have been entered in any competitions.

Please include the following details with your submissions:

About you
Your name and address
A daytime phone number and email address

About your layout
Title of your layout (a few words to describe the story behind the photos and what inspired your design)
Tell us about the techniques you used and your favourite products
What supplies you used and where you got them from

About your hobby
How long you've been scrapping and what inspired you to get started.
Have you ever had any of your work published before?
What's your favourite product?

See there's nothing to it and you've got plenty of time as the closing date for entries is 24 July 2009. You'll receive an email if we'd like to feature your layout.
