scrappin' pals page


Here are a couple more pages for my friendship scrapbook. You can see evidence of the Big Shot in the trim and in the lettering as well as the dry embossed letters in PALS. I'm not sure how I feel about the hard flowers in the corners. Everything else has an older, more corduroy feel, like the kraft button, then suddenly, WHAM, here are some hard plastic items. I wanted a pop of color but maybe should have gone with an alternating color of satin flower or even another corduroy button in a bright shade. What do you think?

This time of year is so crazy busy! I'm lucky if I get any scrapping or cardmaking done! I only sent ONE Easter card this year to someone who sent me one. I always have time to send Easter cards! Hmmm. Time to re-evaluate the schedule. A little too much on the hamster wheel it seems.

At any rate, I hope your day is going well.
Much love and joy,

The Friend Photo Album


good morning!
I'm working on a scrapbook and thought I'd share it with you over a the next few posts.

Here's teh first page ... and yes, we were having beers. I'm the one on the right.

I used a variety of items here including some vintage accessories. I have some antique buttons, some lace ribbon, a mini tag and flowers that were punched with a retired punch that I still love and use.

The alphabet for the word Friends is the Go Go Boots alphabet. You can tell the Big Shot was used to die cut the pinked edges near it. I used a tiny touch of peach/orange as my "pop" color.

Hope you enjoy,
See you soon,
Much love and joy,
