The Magic Lingers

 Good morning and a very happy Sunday.

Today I'm sharing a page in my disc-bound journal, and again I've used paper from the beautiful Twilight's Embrace collection from Relatively Thoughtful.

This is a pocket page, made with some fabulous dies from Simply Made Crafts, and it fills the whole page!

I love these colours together.

The tags are also cut from another die set, so I can choose my base card, a patterned paper layer, and also a top layer with photo corners cut out. This is a great way to display photographs, but I've just put another layer of the gorgeous papers in mine.

This is how the layers look stacked together.

Just look at those beautiful colours!

And it all fits nicely together in my album.

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

Take care, and enjoy the rest of your Bank Holiday weekend xx

A Twilight Embrace

 Good morning and a very happy Sunday!

Today I'm delighted to be sharing my first project with a new collection from Relatively Thoughtful called Twilight's Embrace.

I've used lots of dies to make a disc bound album. This is the front. As you can see I've made full use of the cover sheet.

And this is the back. The belly band is there to keep the pages in place.

This is the inside, just waiting for the pages to be added. This is so different from any of the other Relatively Thoughtful collections, and I absolutely love it!

I've added some pages now, and they're all held in place with these discs.

And here are my romantic Gothic couple - I couldn't help myself from adding the bats lol.

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

Christmas at Pemberley (3)

Good morning and a very happy Sunday. Today I'm sharing another card from the Christmas at Pemberley collection from Relatively Thoughtful.

This collection has so many beautiful background sheets and images.

And the colours are beautiful!

I love these baubles, and of course they look even better with a bit of glitter on them.

There are so many beautiful cut-apart sheets.

I also added a rub-on behind one of the layers.

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

It's good to have made a start on my Christmas cards, but I think I'll go back to Summertime for a while.

Christmas at Pemberley ( 2)

 Good morning and a very happy Sunday.

I'm still in Christmas in July mode, so I'm sharing a couple of cards that I made using the beautiful Christmas at Pemberley collection from Relatively Thoughtful.

These are really simple cards, the papers do all the hard work.

There is so much to the collection, there are backing papers, fabulous images, and lots of cut-apart sheets.

I even got my old bow maker out to make a shabby bow!

And the obligatory stickles glitter!

These baubles are so pretty.

And of course everything is better with a few gems!

As always the collection is available in both digital and A4 formats, so maybe it's time to take a look and make a start on those Christmas projects 🎅🤶.

Christmas At Pemberley

 Good morning and a very happy Sunday. Today I'm taking you back in time to Christmas at Pemberley (in July, in the middle of a heatwave lol)

I've used the beautiful Christmas at Pemberley collection from Relatively Thoughtful.

Who wouldn't want to spend Christmas here? - just as long as it has a good central heating system!

As you can see I've used quite a bit of glitter - well it is Christmas!

I love this bow, it's a set of Stamps by Me dies.

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

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.

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
