Make A Splash (3)

 Good morning and a very happy Sunday. Today I'm sharing the rest of my holiday snaps in my Relatively Thoughtful Seaside Splendour folio.

This is the left side of the folio, all opened up. I'm going to get some 7x5 photos printed, then they can go where the postcards are.

And this is the right-hand side. Again, lots of room for stashing photos, and my large postcard will fit in too.

More pockets with room for photos and journaling tags. My photos have the place and time printed on them, but it's still nice to record other memories. On the right, there's a gussetted pocket, so lots of storage space.

The sky really was this blue in Pisa! The photo above is my sister and I at a silent disco - that was different lol.

I love this pocket, there's so much space in it and I take a LOT of photos! Just look at how well the blue skies go with these papers.

I've put a tuck spot on the back cover so I can change the photos around if I want as they're not stuck down.

 Just look at us all in our finery, whoop whoop we scrub up well!

You can find the collection here in the store in both digital and A4 formats.

I hope you've enjoyed looking at my folio. Take care and have a great day xx

Make A Splash (2)

 Good morning and a very happy Saturday. Today I'm sharing some photos from our recent family holiday. They're in a folio made with the fabulous Seaside Splendour collection from Relatively Thoughtful.

If you would like to see the inside of the album without the photos please see my post here. 

I made a tag to match the front cover so that I could do some journaling. I always think I'll remember all the details, and then promptly forget everything except who sang an obscure pop song in 1962.

I've made lots of tags from leftover scraps and the cut-apart sheets, so that I can add all the where's and when's.

I love how the colours in the collection lend themselves to sun and sea type holiday photos.

I still have plenty more photos to put in the waterfall.

I may have to rearrange these - I seem to have the Leaning Tower in Malta??? Luckily, I've used photo corners so I can switch them all about.

More flips and flaps, and spaces for my postcards. My cooker hood also looks very colourful with fridge magnets from all the ports that we visited.

You can find the collection here in the store in both digital and A4 formats.

I'll be back later in the month with the other side of my folio.

Take care and have a great day x

Better Together

 Good morning and a very happy Sunday. Today I'm very happy to be sharing 3 journal pages made with the fabulous Gelli Art Print papers designed by my teamie Karola for Relatively Thoughtful, and stamps and inks by Andy Skinner.

The collection is available as a digital download and as physical collections in 12x12, 8x8, and 6x6.

I used the digital collection for my background papers and turned down the density on my printer so that the colours wouldn't be too overwhelming.

Then I added some of my favourite Andy Skinner stamps and inks. These are also sold in Sally's store.

These are large stamps and only just fit onto the 4x4 squares.

I love the watercolour inks, and they work so well with the cute stamps!

The Gelli Art Print collections can be found here

8x8 papers

Andy Skinner stamps and inks are also sold in the store and if you check back after 16th I'm sure you will find everything that you want.

Take care and have a very happy weekend xx

Make A Splash

 Good morning and a very happy Sunday.

Today, I'm sharing a folio made with the beautiful Seaside Splendour collection from Relatively Thoughtful and a tutorial from Maymay of Maymay Made It. I'll link this project to her website at the end.

It was so easy to follow, and has lots of spaces for photographs.

I love how all these seaside colours work together.

More spaces for 6x4 and 7x5 photos

You can't beat a good waterfall!

And it's all held in place with magnets and cut-apart images from the collection.

These sea designs look fabulous as photo mats.

And there's tuck spots as well!

I added lots of glitter and Glossy Accents to the front cover, but the papers really speak for themselves.

As always the collection is available in both digital and A4 format.

I hope you like the folio, and I'll be back next month after I've been away to show you my holiday photos!

Take care and have a great week xx

Seaside Splendour

 Good morning and a very happy Sunday. Today I'm sharing an 8x8 scrapbook page made with the beautiful new Seaside Splendour collection from Relatively Thoughtful.

This is full of background papers and cut-apart sheets and is perfect for Summer projects.

These shells look amazing.

And the beach and sea papers are fabulous.

I don't know how these two managed to get in on the act!

And of course the papers are perfect for die cutting.

As always the collection is available in both digital and A4 formats.

I hope you have a lovely weekend and the sun keeps shining for you. Take care and thanks so much for looking x

Happy Easter Down On The Farm

 Good morning and a very happy Easter Sunday. Today I'm sharing a scrapbook page made with the fabulous Easter Farm collection from Relatively Thoughtful.

I started by choosing my papers and stitching the layers.

I also did some fussy cutting from the cut-apart sheets, and die cut some bunnies.

I also made a frame from the same collection, and added a photo of two of my favourite people feeding the ducks.

And this is how it looks all put together in my 8x8 scrapbook album.

He's a very happy bunny!

Another happy bunny!

And a very happy little girl (and ducks!)

As always the collection is available in both digital and A4 formats.

I hope you have a lovely Easter - take care, and don't eat toooooo much chocolate! xx

Practically Perfect In Every Way

 Good morning and a very happy Sunday! Are you enjoying the sunny weather? I certainly am. Relatively Thoughtful has released a brand new collection, and I have to say, it's one of my favourites. It's called 'The Practically Perfect Nanny', and as you may guess, it's based on Mary Poppins.

Once again I followed an excellent tutorial by Paul Lang-Ford (Papercrafting With Paul) and I'll put links to his Facebook and YouTube channels at the end.

This is a vertical accordion style card and it really shows off the papers and images beautifully.

I started by choosing my lovely papers.

Then I cut and stitched my layers.

And chose my embellishments from the cut-apart sheets.

It's a real 3D showstopper!

Here's Bert, who has more than a passing resemblance to Dick Van Dyke. Can you believe he's 100 years old this year!

This is the middle 'tier'.

And the very lovely Mary Poppins floating over the rooftops.

And it all manages to fold flat to fit into a 7x5 envelope.

As always the collection is available in both digital and A4 formats.

Take care, and enjoy the rest of the weekend xx
