Scrapbook page fit for a Vintage Home

I have wanted to display some scrapbooked elements in my Tearooms for some time as I thought it would be nice to embellish the place with some hand made decoration.

Obviously I want to stay within the theme of all things tea related and/orVictorian (as it has a Victorian Theme to the tearooms), and so I [...]

Last Days of Summer - Very Quick Scrapbook Page

Speed Scrapping! Do you think it’s something we do just as a challenge or fun? Some Scrapbookers maybe, but the reason I speed scrap mainly is to actually get a layout finished in this day and age!

The days of being able to spend multiple hours on a layout have not returned yet and my scrapbooking [...]

Multiphoto Scrapbook Page - Mummy’s Hat!

Here is a recent offering!  Mostly Basic Grey papers.  I am pleased that I managed yet another multi-photo page, using 4 photographs.

Roughly scrunched ribbons and lace held with brads and a bunch of colour co-ordinated buttons finish it off.

This was one of the scrapbook kits I made myself to take away with me when I [...]

Some things Can be left unfinished!

Well that’s my excuse anyway!  This scrapbook page is basically finished apart from a possible title and possibly some journaling.  But I’ve posted it already because actually, it could be finished now.

I’ve used a Vertical Border Page Accent (Tutorial Video Here) and a simple patterned paper extended mat for the photograph and a few items [...]

Cheap Jewellery Embellishments for Scrapbook Page

You may remember I wrote an article on Page accents, then later I showed another, using straight border page accents.  Well this time it’s a circle!  So the basis for this page was a 12×12 peice of paper for the background with a 5 inch circle of patterned paper added, include a photo and the [...]

SmashBook - make your own? Video Tour

Below is a video tour (brief) of my version of the K&Co Smashbook, which I think is a good idea by the way, just don’t like their designs that much, not my style.  But I think the company has thought it through well, with all the little extras.

Above is Honey’s effort - she is 7 [...]

Scrapbook Your Own Gratitude Journal! Tutorial

I had an email from Basic Grey today to let me know about a new craft video using one of their Collection packs.  It is a video on how to make a Gratitude Journal.
If you have seen any of my previous articles on Intentional Scrapbooking and my musings on “the Secret” then you will know [...]

Scrapbooking ‘Off the Page’ - Video

Here’s a video for you! Here I am showing you a couple of items I have made with my scrapbooking supplies that aren’t scrapbook pages.
I use my stash for all sorts of things, especially now that I own and run a Tearooms!  But both of these items could be used as gifts, if slightly tweeked… you’ll [...]

Lovely Cute Touchy Feely Mini Album

My friend Lean, whose dog Misty looks very much like my dog Inde, has recently made a beautiful Mini Album of her dog and the place where she takes Misty for a walk.

You must go take a look at it, I just want to reach out and touch it!  Lots of lovely layering and lace, [...]

Word Mini Album Tutorial

My fellow scrapper and “Teammie” on UK Scrappers, Lou, has recently made a Word Mini Album and shared how she made it on her blog.  So I thought I would let you know where to find her blog post, so that you can try to make one too.    (Lou’s Blog Post here) 

I made a Word [...]
