I’ve been busy doing lots of layouts and loving it! Here are a few!

Windy Guernsey
2010
It was a windy summer day in Guernsey and so we went to the Cobo Tearooms for lunch. Can’t remember what it was that we ate, but quite possibly Guernsey Bean Jar and crab sandwiches with a pot of tea and maybe… hmm… coronation sandwiches for auntie sue?
Anyway, just a quick layout to remember a fun day!

Trinity
2010
Here’s the first photo taken of Melinda’s daughter and me! I did this layout using a beautiful new kit from Captivated Visions called “Sweet as Mallow”. I have to say the papers from the kit are irresistible! (but then so are the elements and alpha!).
I couldn’t decide whether I liked the brown background or the pink background more!

Phuket, August 2003
2010
I just love this new kit from Rachel over at Captivating Visions! The combination of the blues, whites and reds make it so versatile and I had a hard time choosing which photo to use as there were so many possibilities! (btw, the kit is called “Where Bluebirds Fly”. I’ve used the Paper pack and the Elements pack).
Anyway, I decided to head back to 2003 to a lovely photo of a beach on Phi Phi Island (Thailand) that I had always wanted to scrapbook but just never seemed to have the time!
Here’s my layout!
Enjoy!

Remember This!
2010
Another layout from my class. I love how I’m running out of photos to scrapbook! This has never been a problem before!
So, back in time to 2003. Has it really been that long???

Clean and Simple
2010
So, I’ve started my class and it’s fabulous! I love it! (in case you missed my last post I’m doing the “Design Your Life” class with Cathy Zielske over at “BigPictureScrapbooking”. Would you believe, there are over 1,000 students taking this year’s class. Unbelievable.
Anyway… templates just really aren’t my style. We are learning so much and I completely don’t mind doing the layouts from the templates included, but they just don’t look like me. They look like very simple traditional scrapbooking done digitally. I had never thought about how my scrapbooking is different when I do it digitally, but it is. Having said that, I think I’ll probably start using EVERYTHING I learn in this class in my scrapbooking. Cathy is phenomenal and is an amazing teacher.
Anyway, here are a few layouts from the class.
Credits: Everything is pretty much from Designs by Lili at The Lilypad. If you’re interested in knowing specifics, drop me a line and I’ll get the exact credits for you! (that is until I find the time to put the exact credits here!)
Ah, life is good when you get to scrapbook such lovely memories!
I'm Taking a Class!
2009
I am so busy I usually don’t have time to do all the things I love, like taking online classes! But browsing through the web a few days ago I happened across ‘The Big Picture’ site and saw they had the ‘Design Your Life’ online class starting at the end of this month! I couldn’t resist and just had to sign up. Before the class actually starts, we have a few ‘pre-class’ assignments to do. One of them was this layout! What fun!

A Quick Layout
2009
I bought a new kit yesterday and love it! It’s a kit by Designs by Lili called, “This Thing Called Love”. I planned on doing a page about a day we got caught in the rain at the beach, but I pulled the wrong photo onto my layout and it turned into a layout about my 11 month old whippet called Harry. Enjoy!
CREDITS: In addition to “This Thing Called Love” kit, I also used the font “Jasmine” from Font Garden.
A Few New Layouts
2009
I bought a new kit from Designs by Lili called “Capture the Magic”. It’s great! I did a couple of layouts using this kit. For the first page I focused on my favourite photo and in the second layout I tried to include as many photos as possible.
Hope you enjoyed today’s layouts!
