Siblings too far away - featuring Indian Summer

We had professional photos done last year when the kids half-brother came to visit from Germany.  I haven't yet scrapbooked them.... until today! This was the first time that I've been scrapbooking since summer, I've been spending so much time outside on my deck enjoying the summer I haven't wanted to be down stairs when it was so nice outside.  Well Fall is in full swing now, and this is the result!

I loves the colours in the Indian Summer collection from We R Memory Keepers, combined with a page from Lemonade Stand from Bo Bunny (Block Party) its a herringbone wood grain sheet that I used on the background of the second page.  I also used Prima flowers and alphas, gems from Queen & Co. and an overlay from Jillibean Soup

The kids miss their brother, and only get to see him once a year, and on Skype.

 

Let me know what you think!

Searching for a title - Sunkissed collection by Prima

What do you do with those absolutly lovely photos of flowers that grow in your garden?  Well you scrapbook them of course!  This is a layout of a sunflower in my yard.  As yet untitled, and well I really don't know what to title it, what do you call a layout about a flower anyway!

 

 

 

Swing with a side of Coconut Lime Soup

My 4 year old calls it a "hoopa-loop" but she loves it!  I created this layout using the Jillibean Soup collection called Coconut Lime Soup - I love the spring colours in it, perfect for this layout.  This layout is based on a sketch that you can find over on the Jillibean Soup blog HERE.  It was an interesting sketch as there was no defined place for the photo(s) so I used three photos over the panels, I wish I had some washi tape in either pink or yellow, that would have worked perfectly.  Washi tape is getting to be pretty popular as of late.

SWING
