Snow days

During the snow I had taken alot of photos. I thought the best way to scrap these photos was to create a mini-book. I picked the best of photos and did layouts with them. I made the album using my bind-it-all and I used scraps of dovecraft papers which I had left. To embellish the pages I used snowflakes which are a mixture of ones I die cut and peel-offs.

Im pleased with how this album has turned out.

Mini-book Challenge

Over on ukscrappers I am taking part in a mini-book challenge. The challenge is to do a page a month throughtout the year.

I have made my book and done the front cover. I used papers from papermania. I am going to use the same paper pad throughtout the whole of the album. I have given a double page to each month and on the right hand page I have printed out a monthly calander where I am going to record what I have been doing.

For this mini-book I am going to use 1 photo per month to highlight the main event for that month. I will get my January page done once my photos come back from being printed.

Feb week 1 challenge

This weeks challenge on UKScrappers was mystery women. The criteria for this challenge was to use bling-10 points, use pink-10 points, use old stash-10points. Claiming full points this week.

For this challenge I used some photos taken last summer. In these photos I was attempting to fly a kite!! I used pink as my background, bling around one of the circles and the brads in the centre of the flowers was old stash.

Scrap Weekly challenge 5

For the scrap weekly challenge 5 on ukscrappers the challenge was to use a trio of papers and put them together to form a background. I used 3 papers from basic grey to form my background. I then used photos of my first rabbit. I tend to always use flowers as embellishments on my layouts so for this I used buttons. Im really pleased with the end result.

52-in-10 week 5

This weeks challenge for the 52-in-10 challenge on ukscrappers was to do a layout about Family. As I have quite a disfunctional family I decided to do a dlo. For this challenge I decided to use tags for each family group. On the tags I wrote the name of the person, date of birth and relationship to me. I didn't use photos as I would never have managed it!! Im really enjoying this challenge.

Cards

On Monday I got around to making another couple of cards. The first card was made using a jewel butterfly kit that I've had for months. Im really pleased with the card. I'm going to give this card to oh's sister for her birthday.

The second card I made using an embossed screen which I had. All I did to this card was to chalk it up. I need to add a happy birthday to it as Im going to give this one to my dads wife for her birthday.

Tattoo

After months and months of thinking I eventually went ahead and got it done. I absolutely love it.
