Sunday Scrappin'

Due to technical difficulties, I wasn't able to blog yesterday and I had such a fun Scrolling Saturday post, too! I guess you'll have to tune in next Saturday to read my well-written, witty, hilarious post! But for now, here's my Sunday Scrappin' offering.

I did 9 pages this week, the last five at my sis-in-law, Snizzle-Sis's, house last night, bringing my total to 59 for the year. Here's a few of them:

I used five different papers and two kinds of ribbon to make my own custom paper for these before I even began to scrap my pictures.


I don't know if you can tell, but this one is really dimensional. Those flowers and that pink frame have little bits of Styrofoam under them so they stand out. I've had those embellishments for years in my box and never thought of how to use them. But then I read how this one lady puts her own "kits" together with matching paper, ribbons, scraps, embellishments, etc, into a 12x12 bag and then brings them to scraps. Looking though my embellishment box, I thought they kinda matched the stuff I already had in the kit I was making, so I threw them in there. I'm glad I did.


I put buttons this one, but they don't really show up. I though it was a waste, but Snizzle-Sis told me that they add to the dimension of the pages, so it's all good!



This one was going to be a two-page layout, but I was able to get them all onto one, which is good since I printed a blog entry about that day to put on the other page and those are big! This page is crowded, but I still like it. Like my Snizzle-Sis says, the goal is to get as many pictures on a page as possible, and I got 6 pictures and a title on this one. When each year is approximately 100 pages, I can't spend much time or money on a page!

Bonus question: How long could you keep crafting without buying new supplies?
Answer: Without adhesive, I couldn't go much longer than a week...I go through that stuff like no one's business. But as for the rest, I could go a long time, although my pages wouldn't look nearly as good...I rely heavily on pattered paper and ribbon to do much of the work, and once I used up my current purchases and just had old stuff, my pages would look really plain.

Hope you all are having a great weekend!!!
