One Event Scrapbook

Hi Everyone! I wanted to share a quick post today of one of the gifts I made this Christmas. My family took a trip this summer to Sister Bay Wisconsin with my parents, my sister and her family, and my brother and his family.  It was a group trip to celebrate my parent's 50th wedding anniversary.  Sister Bay was chosen as it was were my parents had their honeymoon, and because it has been a family holiday spot for several generations.

I complied photos from all 4 groups, because while we did a lot of things together we also did things in smaller groups during the week.  I printed out the photos 4 each and made 4 scrapbooks, one for each household. 
This was the cover, pretty simple, made with the Large Letter Framelits and Adhesive sheets.
I made a bow with some discontinued ribbon in Lost Lagoon as it matched my mom's decor.



This was the inside opening page.  I copied the idea from Tami Hewlett.  You can see her post here. http://swimminginstamps.com/gone-fishing-gdp103/
Tami and I used to do a digital scrapbooking blog hop together, Hi Tami!!












The inside uses pocket pages and I wont show you all of those as they are filled with photos by others and of others who may not want to be online, but it was a fun project to put together and I think using these smaller 6 x 8 books is a great idea for a single occasion book, such as a family vacation or a wedding, reunion, or whatever event you are celebrating.  I filled in the pockets with lots and lots of photos and gave each family an assortment of Memories and More cards so that they could write down their own thoughts and memories in the spaces I provided.   I also included a page with a few photos from when my grandmother and her family were vacationing there in the 1940's.

Scrapbooking Global Blog Hop



Hi everyone!  Today I am participating in a Global Blog hop with my Facebook Friends from the group Scrapbooking Global.  We are a group of Stampin' Up! enthusiasts who decided we needed a place to share our scrapbooking ideas or questions.  If you are interested in joining our group, I hope you do.  We have a challenge on Fridays to get your creativity flowing, and lots of photos in our gallery to give you ideas on how to use your Stampin' Up! products on your pages.   This is our First ever Blog Hop!  I hope you enjoy it and get some Scrapbooking inspiration!

I decided to use the Colorful Seasons bundle on my Blog Hop project because it is just such a great bundle for Scrapbookers!  The Bundle has images and dies for every season, and it is so pretty and versatile.
I love the pretty snowflakes and that there are three sizes.  The fall leaves, cherry blossoms and summer images will get a lot of use on my pages this year as well.












I started out by just cutting a variety of snowflakes.  I used Whisper White and Dapper Denim cardstock, as well as vellum.

I also used my Aqua Painter to make some that are multicolored.  I just painted some Dapper Denim ink onto some Whisper White cardstock, then cut the snowflakes out.  I love the random color I achieved on the snowflakes.

















I used a card from the Memories and More Color Theory Card Pack to add a title.  I used the 2 1/4 inch circle punch to cut just the sentiment out.  I layered some silver ribbon behind.
To add a touch more silver to the page I also added some rhinestones to the centers of some of the snowflakes.

With all those snowflakes and the card pack on my desk, I couldn't help but make a card as well.  I even used the card with the circle cut out as a layering piece behind my "Let it Snow" card!
I hope that you like the project I chose for this Blog Hop!  You can continue to follow along to the other blogs in the hop by clicking the Next button below!  I hope you find some inspiration for your scrapbooking!!  You can also join our Scrapbooking Global community on our Facebook Page.
