Simply scrapping...

Am taking a short break from all that typing for my dissertation, and thought I'd just pop in here to update some of the scraps I've been doing this December:

An album for Junior J's sunday school mate (inspired by all those 6x6 mini-albums that Pooi makes):

I realized that I hardly scrap girl stuff, so I tend to pile on the pink when I do... :p

Some of the inside pages (papers from Echo Park's "Life is Good" collection):



And Junior J's scrappy version of a birthday card for that same friend:

I punched the shapes, he chose where to stick them and glued them on. :)

Then there's this LO I did for a crop with some of my DG girls:

I think the LO's rather sweetie-poo, and a tad different from my usual brown, brown and more brown ink layouts... :p

I really like the Basic Grey Curio papers... especially the flowers!

And I think the title is also a reminder to me to slow down and enjoy the beauty around me... :)
Did you see the title of the book I used?  Matches the theme, yes?

And me and my ex-colleagues did 2x2 inch Christmas-themed magnets and swapped with each other (again, we were inspired by Pooi's swaps!)... and I just got them today:

This was mine... My Mind's Eye papers, and glimmer misting all the way!

All 4 designs together (clockwise from top right): E's happy pinwheel, my poinsettia, P's really cool version that unfolds to reveal a happy Santa, and S's vintage trees with those cute tiny stars!

Ok. I'm off to eat some raspberry ice cream.  Whoops, I mean more typing.  Have a good day! :)

  11. Mmmm, I love that sweet layout... I agree that the Curio flowers are so beautiful... and yes, it was wonderful to use pages from "the secret garden" (one of my favorite childhood books... not that I'm that far from childhood anyway! Ha!) ... and of course little boy J is a cutie-pie!
