Hello

A little back story for this layout ~ the photo is from my husband's high school reunion. It was originally scheduled as a 40 year reunion, but was postponed numerous times due to pandemic travel restrictions. So, it became a 43 year reunion. I'm sharing this page at:

* Mystical Scrapbooks ~ April Colour challenge
Aqua + silver - I love this colour combo!

Elsie

I scrapped another page for my 1990's retro album. I've only got one picture of this gorgeous Golden Retriever "Elsie" who belonged to my future sister-in-law. Back in the 90's I lived on an island in the Whitsundays and there were no pets permitted, so I would get a 'dog fix' every time we visited friends or family on the mainland!

Sketch layouts

This is another page for my 3 Girls travel journal.  The base page is from Teresa Collins circa 2007, the wood veneers are Cocoa Vanilla Free Spirit, and the rest is from my 'clear the desk' bowl of bits and pieces.  I'm sharing at Soul Scrappers for the April sketch challenge.

Hit the open road

This page was created for Scrapping Clearly ~ Palette Play: Vintage Charm

I was happy to use some silver/grey background paper that has been in my stash forever, which I think worked quite well for a road trip theme. I have a LOT of road trip scenery photos and it's fun to try different colour combos to add interest to my pages. For my title I used a pre-made cutfile from Scrapbook Fantasies, and backed it with paper scraps that matched the colour swatch.

Serendipity

White with... BLACK

Here's my design team project for the April White with 1 challenge. I do love a bit of black and white...

Use BLACK on a WHITE cardstock background to create your layout.

* Mood board ~

Share which element/s inspired you {sea theme, netting}

* Must include ~

Vintage black & white photo {c1946-1948, from my Mum's collection}
