Garden Girl Mini Album

Just sharing a mini album I have up today on the Bo Bunny blog using the gorgeous Garden Girl mini album!  This is actually going to be a gift for my parents and is mostly full of pictures of loved ones that are no longer with us and I thought it would be nice to have a little album where there are various photos of all of them in one place for my parents to look at whenever they want. :)

Unfortunately the colours in the photos are not perfect, all part and parcel of living in the UK I suppose, especially in Winter!  Of course I have been waiting for some decent light for days and eventually gave up yesterday and just photographed the mini album and of course within half an hour of putting my post up today the sun came out lol.  Go figure :)





 I added a couple of extra pocket pages in matching paper where some extra photos and journaling tags can be included.
 
 



I also have 3 more of the new releases to show you but as this is already quite a heavy picture post I will narrow the pictures down to 2 each!  First up is Country Garden which is so beautiful and shabby chic!



Next up is On The Go which is such a cute range and will work for younger and older kiddies!


Last but certainly not least is Serenity which is just Stunning!


Bo Bunny has also released a whole range of their Coordinating Double Dot cardstock in Vintage colours!!  They are just gorgeous and you can see them on the blog here.

Thanks for visiting! :)

Scrapology and Happy New Year!

I hope everyone had a fantastic Christmas!  Ours was wonderful and we had the biggest family gathering for Christmas we have had for years. :)

I was really happy to be asked to be a guest designer for the Scrapology challenge blog this month where my lovely friend Alison is on the design team.  This was the layout by Stacey Hansen that we had to scraplift.


And this is my take on it, I used Basic Grey Picadilly




 I totally love these corner stamps from the Bo Bunny Gabrielle collection!!



You can see the design teams wonderful layouts on the Scrapology blog here as well as the details for the challenge, they have a fantastic prize up for grabs!  Anyway that is it for today, Happy New Year to everyone, wishing you all a fantastic, happy year ahead! :)
