On a Pedestal 8x8 Scrapbook Page

Currently I am scrapbooking in both 12x12 and 8X8.

I love the 8x8 scrapbook style...you can really focus on single page layouts and one awesome photo that just says it all! Also, our the Stampin' Up! 8x8 albums are chipboard on board albums -so you can decorate them any way you wish..for whatever the occasion!

This page was completely cased by my downline and friend Michelle. Thanks for the inspiration!

Stamp Sets: On a Pedestal, Varsity Alphabet, Circle Circus

Cardstock: Melon Mambo, Crushed Curry, Bermuda Bay

Accessories: Bermuda Bay Polka Dot Grosgrain Ribbon

The pic was taken August 2009

and is of my daughter Bella at the edge of our pool :)

Happy Scrapping!

Scrapbooking Pregnancy Photo - viewer discretion is advised! lol.

Okay, so I'm not sure how many people would actually do this - show their scrapbooked pregnancy pictures (and not great ones I might add) of them at about 5 weeks before delivery!! Bah, whatever, I have nothing to hide...here I am in April 2004 - pregnant with my daughter Isabella who is now 5 years old. Oh and just to give you perspective - at 40 weeks gestation - I was measuring 46 weeks!

You'll notice from the full page below my HUGE error. Always have a 12x12 craft keeper with you for travelling. There is nothing worse then working hard on a scrapbook page and having it crumple during transport. I'm sure I will be able to get most of the bends out, but figured - again, hey if I'm gonna show you the preggo pic, I might as well show you the crumples too! lol.

This 12x12 layout was made using:

Stamp Set: Razzle Dazzle

Cardstock - soft suede, crushed curry

Designer Series Paper: Razzleberry Lemonade

Extras: Big Shot and Top Note Die, Scallop Circle, Circle Punches, Modern Label Punch

Happy Scrapping!
