Sisters Page

Just wanted to share this fun, simple and quick little layout I made with you! I love the added dimension and texture from the clear acrylic frame (hard to see in this picture) and the metal paperclip and ribbon accents!Happy Scrapp'n! Janelle

Adding an extra touch to your layouts...

I made this double-page Easter layout to add some family pictures and egg-hunt photos to. I wanted to show you how much a little extra touch can add to your layouts! I love using ribbons and dimension in my layouts-- so I added some aqua and brown twill ribbon from my shop to the layout and I love what ribbon adds to scrapbook layouts and projects! It's fun, inexpensive, quick and easy-- all my favorite things! ☺

Recycled Kid's Project Idea

This is the fun project we'll be making at the next Parent/Child Scrapbooking Class (scheduled for June 18th through Sibley Rec) My 4-year-old daughter loved embellishing the album and using lots of little 3d trinkets on the pages since they are expandable. It's nice to have the "page protectors" too so the items all stay together and neat.

The front and back covers and some of the inside pages are made using recycled chipboard (I have large sheets of this but you can use a cereal box @ home) and the pages are made of plastic sandwich bags, a great way to use them w/o them ending up in a landfill so you can use up what you have and switch to reusable bags like these.
Happy Earth Day!! ☺ Janelle
