Mini Album Mania - September - Creativity

Hello everyone,

I have decided to use up a lot of my stash for these mini-albums.

I have created a handbag mini album. 

I have decorated all the pages inside the handbag album differently. 

Each page is one of the things I love to create or to do.

Sewing

When I was younger 😂, I loved to sew clothes and curtains.

At this moment I use my sewing machine for something 

I have to fix it and also for my Scrapbooking.

Who would thought someday we would sew on Scrapbooking paper?

Clip Boards

Hi everyone,

I have created a lot of craft goodies for an Autumn Market. Here are a few Clip Boards pictures.

I have a lot of older scrapbooking paper in my stash, and I have decided to use them up for the Clip Boards. I will add the name of the Company and paper if I still have some pieces over from the paper to see the names. I will update the blog later if I have found some of the Companies or the names of the papers.

The Autumn market was a success, and I was glad to attend the lovely day and to see all the other crafter's different creations.

I am Loved - Layout

Hello everyone,

I have created a few Scrapbook layout's the past few weeks! I took pictures of this layout because I like to add the layout to ScrapourStash Challenge.  This Challenge is to use the sketch and add Wood Vencer embellishments to your layout. The Challenge ends on the 29th of June 2021. Follow the link and join them in the fun!

The pictures are from my daughter and her fiance when they were on holiday, and just goofing around!

After getting engaged on holiday end of 2019 in Australia, she flew back to Switzerland and her fiance to South - Africa. She organized all her things to move back to South Africa in March 2020. Mmmmm, you all know what then happend. The S%/t hit the fan! After a year full of stress she could finally move back to South Africa end of November 2020. They decided to go to the ocean and just enjoy and relax after all the stress. 

My daughter took some pictures with her iPhone and sent them to me! I have received a few more pictures and this makes me want to create Scrapbook layouts again, which I didn't do in a long time.

At ScrapourStash they have this sketch and you have to add at least one Wood Vencer embellishment to your layout. I added to hearts and some wood dots.

The paper is from Photo Play - Crafting with my gnomies by Becky Moore. The embellishments are from LoveFromLizi from my April 2018 card kit.

I love to create double layouts especially when I have a lot of pictures to choose from.

Here is the sketch we received to create a layout.

Here is each layout page on its own

The second page is the same sketch, I just turned the sketch around.

I am participating in the following Challenges.

ScrapourStash - use the sketch and at least one wood Vencer

🌸 Scrapbooking sketch - ScrapourStash
