Cute Card Thursday and Scrapbook Steals Midweek Mojos!

The theme for Cute Card Thursday this week is 

Hey, what's new?

Now is the time to break into those new crafty supplies you got over the holidays or start a brand new project! 

I bought these papers just before the holidays from Scrapbook Steals to start on my heritage album.  Time to do something with all those old photos!  

I used the fabulous sketch over on Scrapbook Steals for both of these pages, what a great way to make a start on my album.  I find a sketch really helps as a starting point!  

This one is Sunflower # 6

 and Sunflower # 7

We are sponsored this week by Bunny Zoe's Crafts, hope you can join us!

Midweek Mojo - Carnation 5

Here is my Scrapbook Steals Midweek Mojo Carnation 5!

Love this sketch and love this paper, it is Teresa Collins!  I started this at the retreat this past weekend but left it unstuck until I got home so I could do some machine stitching on it - my favourite thing to do! 

The retreat was so fabulous, it has got me back into scrapping mode after taking a long hiatus! 

Midweek Mojos Carnation 1 - 4

Just back from the Scrapbook Steals Retreat over the weekend, was so much as fun always.  I have attended every one they have held in the past 5 years! 

I haven't scrapped since last year but I have so enjoyed catching up with these layouts using some old photos.  

I am also catching up with the Scrapbook Steals Midweek Mojo.  The series is called Carnation and her are the 1st 4 in the series.

Scrapbook Steals Midweek Mojo Amethyst 1 and 2

Another page done for Scrapbook Steals Midweek Mojo this one is done using the sketch from 

Amethyst 1.

It is the second page of a double page layout!

I haven't decided on the journaling yet, might see if my son has any memories from this birthday that he wants to add.

The papers are My Minds Eye 'Dilly Dally'

here is a reminder of the first page.  

I seem to prefer doing double pages or I have angst over what will go beside it, I totally have a thing about everything matching!

Because these 2 layouts were photographed at different times the bottom one looks much duller but in actual fact they match up in real life quite well!

This one is Amethyst 2!

Now just got another 3 layouts to catch up!

Thanks for dropping by!
