Scrapbooking - Kit #03 - Layout share "Baptism"

Hello fellow crafters. Today I have the third layout that I created using the kit I created in August, "Kit #03 - CSI Case File #136" - CSI Case File #136".  I really struggled with this layout and nearly gave up, particularly in doing the process video.  I found I was struggling with the pattern paper I selected and the colour.  Yellow is just not a colour I would normally choose to work with, but I persevered and eventually just started sticking stuff down.  It all came together in the end and I am very please with the results.  It reminded me not to give, with a little bit of effort you can, for the most part, salvage something that you thought was lost - LOL!!!!

Below the photo is a link to my YouTube process video for those of you who may be interested in how I put the layout together.

Scrapbooking - Kit #03 - Layout share "The Pink Room"

Hello fellow crafters. Today I have the second layout that I created using the kit I created in August, "Kit #03 - CSI Case File #136" - CSI Case File #136".  This layout is very very pink and that was the point of it. The plan was to capture how growing up I had a very pink room filled with dolls.  I did not like the colour pink when I was little and though I didn't mind playing with my Barbie doll, I was much in to other dolls. I just seemed to collect them, or probably more accurately my mum collected them for me. My mum still collects the odd doll now and then today, but I am not a big doll lover.  I do, however, now enjoy the colour pink. In fact, it would now be one of my most favourite colours.  I had fun adding the Julie Nutting Prima dolls to this layout and playing with some mixed media.

Scrapbooking - Kit #03 - Layout share "Love"

Hello fellow crafters. Today I have the first layout that I created using the kit I created in August, "Kit #03 - CSI Case File #136" - CSI Case File #136".  This layout is quite simple compared to what I normally create, but the picture lent it self to simple.

Scrapbooking - Kit #02 - Layout share "Look Tessa...."

Hi fellow crafters, I've back with another layout as well as a process video.  This layout captures the arrival of a new kitten into my home in late 2005.  Both Connor (RIP) and Contessa were fascinated with this new arrival and looked like they could eat her up.  This is what led me to give it the title "Look Tessa mum got us a live meal".

The layout took me just over an hour to complete and I really enjoyed making another process video for fellow crafters to watch.  If you don't want to watch the video, the photo is below. If you do want to watch the process video, it is below the photo.

Scrapbooking - Kit #02 - Layout share "Birthday Smiles"

Hi fellow crafters, today I'm sharing a scrapbook layout of myself and my deceased dog Connor.  This layout primarily consists of pink colours, as I decided to focus on me in the photo rather than Connor.

This is the first scrapbook layout I've done in about two months.  It was a little hard getting into the groove, and this is why I do not have a process video.  The layout took me about an hour or so to complete, as I did some elements in stages through out the day.

I'm really happy with how it turned.

Cheers FiLoMa
