Wow what a day I had yesterday! Yesterday was the first scrapbook and memory keeping event I've ever held.... and it was amazing! The 10 lovely ladies who took part shared their creativity and their laughter at this fun event 😀. The session was an introduction to scrapbooking and memory keeping . I designed a double page scrapbook layout, a very simple mini album and photo frame. All were designed using the oh so cute and pretty Cute as can Bee pattern papers and sticker sheet.
The colours in these papers and stickers are just delightful.
For the event my focus was on clean and simple. The layout was designed to inspire but not overwhelmed the new scrappers. I wanted to show that you don't need lots of stash to create beautiful pages.
All the talented crafters who came knocked it out of the park! They added their own flair to their pages and enjoyed playing with the layout which was amazing 👏 🤩
As I watched them develop their layouts I was so inspired I just had to create my own stepped up version!
The simple additions of mats and extra embellishments whilst keeping to the feel of the original inspiration made for 2 new pages that still delight me. The mats and embellishments give the layouts more dimension.
Flagging the ends of the strips and adding some simple stamped bee trails give the layout extra movement. The placement of the photo mats also help give more movement to the pages.
All in all I'm loving these stepped up pages especially as they were inspired by the wonderful ladies who I had the pleasure of spending time with. Thank you all Heather, Karen, Lynn, Andrea, Ellen, Maria, Carole, Jackie, Kay and Jane. You ladies rock 🤩 Can't wait for our next scrap-together 😀
