Yuup, this evening the stickin' an' gluein' stuff has come out of the cupboard! As some of you will know, my considerable scrapbooking is largely consigned to Chook's birthdays and Christmases these days. But I like to keep up with it and since there is another Christmas looming (sort of) I thought it was time to get out the paper.
I had a wee shop last time I had a wee splurge of scrapping and hadn't used any of the goodies. Ink and shimmer mist and the like. So these are a weird mix of very new and incredibly old stash. The "happy" Scenic Route paper here came from a Las Vegas store about 10 years ago when my Dad was there on business! Anyways, here's Chook's birthday in July. The present list is behind the photo and that blue border goes the whole way round the layout - my new scanner is not a fan of 12x12 it would seem.
And here's my wee cool chick last Christmas. I was a bit heavy handed with the cosmic mist here - it's very shimmery! I kinda like it, though. Again, list of gifts is in the pocket behind the photo.
I actually got the borders put on the Critters last night! But it hasn't stopped raining today so photos are a total no-go. Mebbes tomorrow?
As I'm not a scrap booker I always blink twice when I see one of your papers that I know I have seen in the fabric version!:)
ReplyDeleteChook is getting too big!:)
I love your scrapbook pages!
ReplyDeleteYour scrapbook pages are so cool. I tried to get into it but I couldn't do it. I kept wanting my layouts to look like traditional photo albums. In the end all the stuff I'd got has ended up in a box under the spare bed because I decided blurb books were more me!
ReplyDeletedont do scrapbooking - i'd be all gluey fingerprints and left handed smudges... but, i do love seeing yours. you've you a real eye for it and such lovely ideas.
ReplyDeleteWell I'm pleased to see some paper stuff - although does that mean I need to actually do some sewing? Not for a while...
