Rich Razzleberry Scrapbook layout

I love this colour combo: Rich Razzleberry, Old Olive, Crumb Cake & Whisper White. It's soft, bright and warm all at once (assuming that's possible).

 

Here is the layout I have put together for my next workshop using these colours.

Epic Day Scrapbook Layout

Epic Day Designer Series Paper has been out since September, but it has taken me until now to buy a pack. I'm not sure why but I'm glad I finally have.  I have created two layouts now with it and I'm really happy with both of them, yet they are both really quite different.

Here is the first layout I have created. I have a few (well 100's) of cricket photos to scrap, so I think I'm going to use this layout for my son's album. His baggy cap is green and gold, so I think the papers will match and add some vibrancy to the rest of his white garb. ;)

SCRAP CLUB 5 - Retro Fresh!

Loving this new DSP called 'Retro Fresh', but loving more that Stampin' Up! have created lots of lovely co-ordinating items to go with it.

 

Here is the layout I have created using the paper, wooden elements, washi tape and co-ordinating stickers. So easy to create layouts when you have lots of matching elements.

Easter Egg Hunt

If you know my type of scrapping, I love to cram as many photos into my double layouts as I can.  I love my photos to tell the story and this one is no exception. There are 8 photos on this one, all cropped, but I'm sure if I needed too, I probably could have cropped and crammed some more.

 

I have used Stampin' Up's 'Birds of a Feather' DSP: a cute little egg print along the bottom with some cute little chicks cut out and glued inbetween the fence die.

 

Guess what? Easter this year is already scrapped, including photos of their letters to the Easter Bunny, so I didn't have to use valuable space pasting it onto my page! Shame I still have last years to finish off. Must get on to that.

Happy Easter everyone!

 

 

Meet Spike!

Meet the newest member of our family 'Spike'! He is a Toy Poodle and a very cute little man.

So of course he needed a page of his own.

 

I have used DSP Well Worn, combined with Cajun Craze, Crumb Cake & Early Espresso. The paws are made using the medium circle from the owl punch and the small heart from Bigz Die ''Hearts & Brackets".

I'm sure you will see lots more pages of this cute little man.

Sports Photo Layout

I created this layout for my son's Soccer Photos using the new stamp set from Stampin' Up! 'Great Sports'.  The stamp set has a number of options including netball, basketball, football, baseball and of course soccer. 

 

Although I have used my son's professional soccer photos, you could still use it to create an action page with your 6 x 4 photos. And of course, colours are optional depending on your team colours.

Up, Up and Away!

I found this little fence die at the Newcastle Craft Show last week and couldn't wait to use it on a layout.

I am slowly 're-scrapping' (lol) my son's baby album (he is now 9!) and thought this scene layout would suit his 'first steps' photos. The patterned papers I have used are from the 2012 Saleabration papers 'Everyday Enchantment' which I am STILL addicted to and am still finding lots of lovely uses for it.

Here is the layout pre-photos:

 

And the layout with my photos:

 

Thursday Night Workshop 31st May 2012, 'Oakvale Farm'

The inspiration for this workshop is Oakvale Farm @ Bobs Farm. I tried to work with earthy colours and ended up with So Saffron, Old Olive, Chocolate Chip with a little Cherry Cobbler and Night of Navy thrown in.

I wanted the layout to have lots of room for lots of photos and I hope I have accomplished this.

Stamp Club # 5, 1st March 2012

Here is the layout we will be making for our very last Stamp Club in this round.

I have used the Sale-A-Bration papers, which everyone will be receiving half a pack for FREE. I just LOVE the Sale-A-Bration time of year. 

The colours in this layout include: Soft Suede, Pool Party, Lucky Limeade, Crumb Cake and I have used the matching stamp set in the Sale-A-Bration Catalogue, Fresh Vintage, & 2011-12 In-Colour markers to create a cute scalloped embellishment.  Girls, the layout can take more than the 4 photos shown, my photo mountings are purely there to give you an idea.

Can't wait to share Stamp Club # 5 goodies with you all!

Cheaper Than Therapy # 10 Submission

Ok, so I don't do flowers. Whenever there is a layout with flowers, I change it to something boyish, like an arrow or a star, even a heart, so my personal challenge this week was to go 'flowery'. All it did was remind me why I 'DON'T do flowers'. I havent even titled this one, how bad is that. Oh well, what's on for next week? lol

Don't forget to check out Rachael and Adele's blogs.



Cheaper Than Therapy # 4 Submission

I thought I would struggle using Stampin' Up's Silhouette Sentiments stamp set on a scrapbook layout, but in the end, it was really easy. I must admit, I did take inspiration from a scrapbook pagemap from Becky Flek for this one, so that did help. Here it is:

Adele & Rach, what was your inspiration?
