More scrapbook layouts...

I just realised that I hadn't blogged the layouts that I have done for the Pages of Memories Online Store for January... so here they are:

This one was made with the Jan Week 2 Kit 'Aquarella' using papers by Prima...

My next layout was using the January Week 3 Kit 'Vintage Blue'...

And the last one was done using the January Week 4 Kit 'Crisp'...

All of these Kits can be purchased at the Pages of Memories Online Store here...

Mini Album Class...

I was at one of Niki's all day classes yesterday and we made a lovely Mini Album using the Tea Time Simply Scrapping Kit. This was based on a design by the very creative Jenny from Stampin Moments.

I had some photos that I was wanting to use in a Mini Album and the colours were just perfect with them! Here is how mine ended up...

A new layout...

I did this layout last week using the lovely 'Lost & Found 2' papers from My Mind's Eye. I loved the look of the glittered frames already printed on the paper so I decided to replicate them with a frame of my own. I used some of the matching brads to embellish the title which was made with the'Summers End' letter stickers from Fancy Pants. The photos are when Lee met our Godson Freddie for the first time and I love them because they are both making eye contact with each other!
