Birthday Basics DSP = A Perfect Layout For An 8 Year Old's Birthday

As always I had HEAPS of photos to scrap for my daughter's 8th birthday and the new Birthday Basics DSP was the perfect paper to suit the theme.
I firstly scrapped using these 3 patterns in the DSP pack (balloons, candles and numbers) and added some balloon embellishments with my oval punches:


Then when I flipped these exact papers over, they all matched beautifully too! So, the above layout is for her album, and the below one for mine. The one below needn't be a birthday theme, but would suit any photos.

 
(Both these layouts are using Pear Pizzazz as the background colour, both photos taken at different times of the day, one with a flash, one without, hence the colour variance.)

You Are My Sunshine! Scrapbook Layout

Isnt this the cutest stamp: You Are My Sunshine!

I created this layout with the intention of scrapping one of my babes out in the sunshine:


And then this is what I scrapped: A day out kayaking with friends at Murrays Beach. LOL.
 
It was a beautiful Autumn day last Easter holidays, so the sun just reminds me of just what a gorgeous day it was.

SCRAP CLUB Round 1: Soho Subway Meets Simply Pressed Clay!

Scrap Club this year is 'Tools N Techniques' and when the new catalogue came out I couldn't wait to try the new Simply Pressed Clay.
 
So, the first round of Scrap Club had to include the this moulding clay, the Buttons & Blossoms Simply Pressed Clay Moulds and a re-inker.
 
I've had a few days to play with it and have come up with the following layout using the new Soho Subway DSP.
 


Here is my layout, Mother's Day Picnic this year. We had such a lovely day. Shame my photography wasn't great, but still lots of awesome memories to treasure.
 
 
 
And a little sneaky close-up of the buttons & blossoms we will be making.
