New layouts (week 36)

I actually had stuff to do this week, which is a good thing. I even had a kind of job interview this week! I am super excited about it.

I felt like I hardly scrapped, but I have more layouts to show you then I thought I would. So let's start!

 

This layout is created using Mandy Kings grab bag: September Morn

This weeks new layouts

Let's start showing the layouts I created for my Three Sisters on the Road album. I've got 2 more double pagers done! I'm very proud because these aren't the most interesting photos so my motivation was a bit lacking. I had to resist the urge to skip these for now. I know what will happen if I do that: I will still have all of the more boring layouts unfinished in a year. Nope, not going to do that this time.

 

So here they are. Here we are visiting Gastown in Vancouver.

 

 

Layouts created using:

Authentic - a Digiscrap Parade collab

(every download should still be available for free during August)

freebie templates

 

 

 

After Gastown we continued to Chinatown and there we even stumbled across a beautiful Chinese garden in the middle of it!

New! The Circle of Life templates by Two Tiny Turtles

 Two Tiny Turtles has a new template pack out and it is great!

They are called The Circle Of Life and they are very, well, round!

Schooled Up collab by Mandy King and Saxon Holt

The schools have started at the beginning of this week for my sisters. Hopefully I can start a new job soon as well, maybe next week? *wishful thinking*

Mandy King and Saxon Holt have come to bring us a delicious school themed collab kit called Schooled Up! It's meant for upper-elementary/middle school/jr high... so not much "cutesy" in it. And I think that's perfect. Because most school themed kits are too kiddy, or at least too kiddy for me to use.

 

Fun, isn't it? Well here is the layout I created!

 

 

I created this layout using the kit above and a template by Little Green Frog Designs: Gibberish. Now here is the sad thing, Little Green Frog Designs is retiring and therefor we have to say goodbye to her amazing templates. But you can get any of them untill the 28th with a 50% discount on all OR you can buy her complete store for only $100! That's a steal, but I don't have the money. So I just bought a whole bunch of template packs, many of them being journaling templates because most designers are not making these and this designer rocks at them. Go check out her store.

 

Starting on a new album!

I have decided to start with a new album. Structurally.

Just like my Berniek goes Canada album, that took 3 years to finish, I have also been scrapping layouts for the Three Sisters on the Road album. That road trip happened right after my stay in Canada, so 4 years ago. I have scrapped some photos but have no idea where some are, plus my tecnique has improved a lot since. I also now know how a Blurb photo album will look finished, what I need to keep into account and basicly I just now know what I want. Which is 2 page spreads scrapped with the same kit and in the same style.

 

So here is my beginning. I have finished 5 layouts since I started this weekend and I am happy with it. The first layout is somewhat the 'introduction' page, not the album cover. So let me show you.

 

 

Layout created using:

A-moose-ing by Erica Zane

Stuff and Nonsense template by Little Green Frog Designs

(LGFD is about to retire, so grab any template with 50% off NOW or never again)

 

 

 

 

Page 2 and 3 are about the journey of my sisters to Canada and finally seeing them after months.
