Scrapbooking with Holiday Memorabilia



I have just returned from a trip to Verona and that sounds like a great idea! Scrapbooking can be a fun and creative way to preserve your memories. Here are some tips to get you started:

  1. Gather your holiday memorabilia - this could include photos, ticket stubs, postcards, brochures, maps, and any other items you collected during your trip.

  2. Choose a scrapbook - there are many different types of scrapbooks available, from traditional albums to digital options. Consider the size, style, and color of your album to best showcase your holidsy memories.

  3. Plan your layout - before you start gluing things in, decide on a general theme or color scheme for your pages. You can also sketch out a rough layout to make sure everything fits and looks balanced.

  4. Get creative - use stickers, washi tape, stamps, and other embellishments to add some personality to your pages. You can also include handwritten notes or journal entries to document your experiences.

  5. Don't forget the details - add captions, dates, and other details to your pages to help tell the story of your trip.

Most importantly, have fun with it! Scrapbooking is a great way to relive your memories and create something that you can cherish for years to come.

I'll keep you updated with what I do with my Verona memorabilia.

A Day in The Life of a Crafter

I have always had an interest in crafts and handmade items of all kinds, but I never considered myself to be very good. I set up an Instagram account first and I got some very nice comments about the things I had made. I thought it might be a good idea to share with you my typical crafty day. As you know I am at present a nurse, although I don't know how much longer I will be working. I'm hoping I can retire in the next couple of years. Anyway this is my crafty day when I am not at work. I wake up  roll out of bed and head downstairs for breakfast. I'm not a fan of huge breakfasts but I have to have something. After breakfast it's time to take Star out gonna walk. She loves her walk.

At the minute I am working on some new items for a nature themed fair I am taking part in in April. I usually...
