April - Treasure Those Memories
Apologies, I've not been very well this week. I planned to spend today crafting as my family had all gone to Alton Towers, but didn't feel up to it. So, I have had to use a project I completed over Christmas.
My amazing mum and her partner were away over Christmas, in Barbados (lucky things!). So, as a Christmas present I framed a scrapbook page from the last time they went. They now have it in pride of place in their living room, something to remind them until their next visit.
Although the background cardstock is not Stampin' Up! I'd had it for a while and really liked it. Everything else used was Stampin' Up! though. I decided to stick with a circular theme, even die cutting the photos. My mum was chuffed that they had a Woolworths over there, I very nearly added a photo of a Woolworths bag, but changed my mind.
Ingredients
Cardstock: Tranquil Tide
Lemon Lime Twist
Marina Mist
Flirty Flamingo
Silver glitter cardstock (non SU)
Dies: Large Letters
Stitched Shapes
Embellishments: Clear Faceted Gems
Frame from Hobbycraft
I had intended to start a present for a friend's daughter who is having her first child soon. A mini album to celebrate all the baby's birthdays up to 21. They will just need to add photos. Hopefully, I'll get started on that soon, then I'll be posting that too.
I'm the last in the hop, it's only a small hop this month, if you didn't start at the beginning follow the link
