Cape Cod Glow Lamp Project

Good Monday Morning Everyone!

The ProScrapbook's League (PSL) Summer Camp has been in full swing the past few weeks and I am the proud Counselor of the Jewel Beetles Project Cabin. This was the first time Club Scrap has formed Project making teams. It has been a great motivation for members to take out all of their Club Scrap projects and complete them for points during Camp. Kay's Lacewings Project Cabin has been giving us a run for our money. Everyone agrees, it has been a welcome addition to the PSL lineup of team choices.

As a Counselor,  I am not allowed to submit projects to my team's gallery for points, but it didn't stop me from creating a project this week. When I first received my Cape Cod kit back in May, I knew I wanted to use it to make one of Kay's Holiday Glow Lamps. We were introduced to that project during the Holiday WOW 2010.

here is my Cape Cod version

stamped translucent paper with Cape Cod UM stamps and colored with markers

glued torn strips of tan cardstock to the exposed book board base to mimic sand

hot glued shells, beach glass and beach grass to base


Supplies used:
Club Scrap - Scholarship Tan HPOPs
Club Scrap - Memoirs Green cardstock inked with Distress Peeled Paint ink for beach grass
Club Scrap Bookbinding Glue
markers for coloring
shells and beach glass from my stash

Hope you enjoyed this beachy version of a fun Club Scrap project.

Have a fantastic week!

Julie
