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.

Celticmoon Crafts

    I started Celticmoon Crafts quite a few years ago now. As a passionate crafter I wanted to share my ideas with others, so I started to design my own craft sheets.         This is one of my favorite design sheets. I love anything Oriental.       I produced 20 card making CDroms, covering a range of subjects. This was one of my first CDroms. I love digital crafting. Its much more economical than buying ready printed sheets. If you run put just print another sheets. Of course I have been known to run put of ink before which isn't always good.       I made this card using one of my own designs. Anubis is my favorite Egyptian God. He gets a lot of undeserved bad publicity in my opinion.     I've done a lot of craft fairs in the past.  Sometimes they are very very good and sometimes very very bad. I have been to craft fairs where I have sold loads, and I have been to ...

Health Scare

I have been notably absent over the past couple of weeks. The reason is I have had a health Scare. I returned from the MPC Gala in Edinburgh at the begining of May and developed a niggly pain in my right foot. I thought I had overdone it a bit at the Gala so didn't take much notice. However the pain got worse and eventually I had to go and see my Doctor. She thought I may have  a stress fracture and sent me for an X Ray to check. My X Ray showed a lesion on my toe joint that could not be identified. I was immediately referred to an Orthopaedic Oncologist. Then followed the worst two weeks of my life. As a nurse all of the worst case scenario's went through my head. Sometimes a little bit of k owledge is a bad thing. If I slept for 3 hours a night I was lucky. It was just hell. On Friday I finally went for my appointment. I am hugely relieved to say the specialist is certain the lesion is benign. I have to go for an MRI scan but he has no concerns. I do have a fracture which is ...

Ebay Finds

Like many other crafters i like a bargain. I don't always have a huge amount of money to buy supplies  so it id always good when I can find a bargain. I am a huge fan of digital crafting as I find it much more economical than buying ready printed products. I have a huge collection of craft cdroms and usbs. I have started checking out ebay for digital bargains and have found quite a few recently. I got this for £5 and it was worth every penny. The papers on it are beautiful. I am presently making a V8ntage Christmas Memory Book using this cdrom. I am a great fan of Joanna Sheen. This triple cdrom was also £5. I have lots of plans for this one. I am a great fan of anything Oriental. Joanna Sheen again. It suddenly struck me that I dont have anything with a baby theme. What would I do if someone asked me for a baby card, or a baby book. So of course I took to ebay again. Now if someone asks me gor something for a new arrival I am ready. Crafters Companion brought out this cdrom a few ...
