Scarves - 2010


Someone posted an easy-peasy scarf pattern on one of my forums so I tried it out (even though I haven't knit anything for YEARS). It turned out SO well, that I ended up making 20 scarves for family and friends as gifts.

This layout was done for a layout tag over at ScrapShotz and features two of my buds wearing their scarves.

I used paper from K&Company and made my own "balls of wool" and downloaded a photo of some knitting needles.

Ravello Hotel (Italy) - 2006




These are some of the views we saw from our hotel room(s) at the Ravello Hotel in Italy. Note: some of the photos were taken by the wife of the other couple we were traveling with.

I did this two-page layout at the National Scrapbooking Day's Crop for the Cure (for Women's cancers) using a CTMH kit and layout from the Magic Book.

ScrapShotz May Kit Reveal

This is my second month as Guest Designer for ScrapShotz. The May kit is lovely. Here are the 4 layouts that I created with this kit.

This first one is based on the sketch provided:


I've been wanted to scrap this photo of my friend's twins since they were born so this was the perfect kit for it:


Since I was scrapping the twins, I decided to do their first birthday as well. Plus, this will be my challenge for the forum to do something with cupcakes.



Since Mother's Day is in May, they wanted us to do a layout or card showcasing MOM - here's mine (with a close-up below).
