I imagine that in regard to scrapbooking, 2023 will be fairly similar to 2022, and that thought has helped to consolidate this year’s goals. Storage for albums remains at a premium, so I’m continuing the theme of one layout for each month this year – 12 in 23 – and One Little Word spreads. Any travels will … Continue reading Scrapbooking in 2023 | The Goals

Honeymoon Album | Project Life
Having shown you traditional 12x12 pages featuring Singapore and Australia in our revamped honeymoon album, here's a quick look at some of the Project Life-style divided pocket pages. All journaling and filler cards are from In a Creative Bubble and a few embellishments still need to be added here and there. I stuck the beermat … Continue reading Honeymoon Album | Project Life
Scrapbooking in 2021 | Australia
In late 2005, The Brainy One and I left London for a 6-weeks-long round-the world delayed honeymoon. It was on this trip that I was introduced to scrapbooking (by K in Australia) and our subsequent scrapbook was my very first attempt at pairing photos with paper and journaling. Thank you, Creative Memories. Looking back sixteen years later … Continue reading Scrapbooking in 2021 | Australia

The Boy’s Summer Journal
It won't surprise you to learn that The Boy wasn't especially keen of another Summer journal ... I think this year is the 6th year of Summer journals. The scrapbooker in me argued the case for a simple scrapbook, which would record the Second Covid Summer ... I won. 🙂 That ... and the bribe … Continue reading The Boy’s Summer Journal
The 100 Day Project | Day 75
Roughly half-way down my 100 Day Project list of UFOs, at number five, were the words fill in the gaps in The Nephew's albums. The Nephew currently has two 12x12 albums, begun when I was new to scrapbooking ... Anyone else begin their scrapbooking with the simplicity of Creative Memories? It was obvious to me … Continue reading The 100 Day Project | Day 75
Scrapbooking in 2021 | Completing the Ascension Island Album
I've reached the point in the Asi Album where I'm happy to call it done. The majority of the pages are Project Life style - there are only ten traditional 12x12 spreads - and I like the look and feel of having mixed things up. 🙂 The Best Friend asked me how I remembered so … Continue reading Scrapbooking in 2021 | Completing the Ascension Island Album
Project Life Revisited | Weeks 51 and 52
Week 51: Walks with Tilly are the highlight of my day. I went for my first-ever flu jab. Christmas Eve and Christmas Day were spent quietly at home. Strictly, a new jigsaw and a glass of bubbly. I made an interactive lift-up flap for Christmas Eve and Christmas Day. What's not very clear is that … Continue reading Project Life Revisited | Weeks 51 and 52
Project Life Revisited | Weeks 49 and 50
Week 49: We went early with the Christmas decorations. The Boy Child captured a beautiful sunrise as he waited for the bus to school. I made the first batch of cranberry sauce. The double-issue of Radio Times went on sale. London's West End was looking very festive and there was a glorious sunset. Week 50: … Continue reading Project Life Revisited | Weeks 49 and 50
Project Life Revisited | Weeks 47 and 48
Week 47: I caught up on the Americast podcast, which I thoroughly recommend. I splashed out on a set of fabric masks. 🙂 The chalkboard speaks the truth. More sweeping up leaves from our drive. Week 48: We made use of the café in the park. I spent time scrapbooking (and had a new favourite … Continue reading Project Life Revisited | Weeks 47 and 48
