Yes I know it isn’t Saturday but I wanted to share this scrapbook page I made a couple of nights ago as part of our Scrapbook challenges UK FB group Winter Team challenge. I’ve been doing quite a lot of pages and not sure when I will get around to sharing them all but wanted to share this one now.
I love it!
I will say though that it took forever to make! Far longer than I normally take when scrapping at home – I wouldn’t mind the thing that looks the fiddliest bit (the triangles) was easy and quick – really don’t know why the rest of it took so long!
Anyway our challenge earns us a point for our team for each of these things …
Minimum of Three word title, sequins, triangles, ribbon and balloons (hot air counts!)
So my page scored us five points!
I pulled all the papers for this page from my 100 patterned paper pile – so another good starting point on the page.
I cut some 2” squares and then cut them in half for the triangles. I decided I wanted a frame for the page so that was the starting point adding an 11” square of white into the centre.
The papers are all Kingston Crafts ones so that made it easy to add some plain card in with the coordinating solid cardstock.
The sequins and the ribbon came from a few different Hey Little Magpie embellishment kit.
I decided against adding more bits and pieces from the stash as the triangle pattern seemed busy enough. I also decided I liked the negative of the die cut letters for the first part of the sentiment.
Of course my highlight of the page has to be the swoonworthy Mr Bailey picture who of course I had to had a selfie with! 😍
As I said earlier I love this page – the photos aren’t the best but the memories of our trip are now there for us to look at and remember that on the way out at least two of us had very blotchy faces from the crying! 🤣
Happy crafting!
