Scraplift

I have scraplifted a layout by Anthea to create this one of Abbey. I loved the way she cut her 4x6 pics down to fit them all on the page to tell a story. The design was perfect for this little story of Abbey and her "Oh Great!"....tantrum. A great way to use scraps too seeing as most of the page is taken up with pics, you don't need much PP.

Our year in review

Using the same LO design that I did for the Christmas photos a couple of month ago. I love this design to fit lots of pics plus room for journalling too if you want it. Very simple and easy to complete. I can see me doing something similar every year. Especially seeing as I always take so many photos that I can't possibly scrap them all!

I have had a very scrappy week and have completed a few more but will share later in the week.

Totally Natural Me

I was blog hopping a few weeks ago and came across this layout and knew I had to give it a go. I love the simplicity of it and how the photo remains the feature of the page. I will definitely be doing this layout again for Abbey's album. It was so quick!

Hoping to share more soon...

Scrapbooking Delights

Last night I went to the midnight crop at Scrapbooking Delights. I was very pleased to get 3 layouts done.

The first 2 are scraplifts of 2 gorgeous layouts by Scrapbooking Memories Master Kim Arnold using the new Basic Grey Origins range. I am really enjoying using these colours, they are gorgeous and totally different to what I would normally scrap with.

Check out the gorgeous organza flower. It was made by Sandra. Owner of Scrapbooking Delights. Gorgeous huh?!

This is the latest sketch from Inspired Blueprints using the new Making Memories Flutter range. Such a cute girly range of papers featuring florals and butterflies. So cute!

.

I was planning on getting a little bit scrappy tonight too but I have my niece Isabelle staying over and the girls stayed up a little later than I thought they would. It's now 10.30pm. A little late to start something now I think.
