Come Hop With Me!

Happy National Scrapbooking Day!!!!

 We are totally excited that you’ve joined us this weekend for this extra special blog hop. 
SpiegelMom Scraps and the Southern Girls Challenge Blog owners and Design Teams have united and are hoping to inspire YOU!

We would love it if you joined us today!

You should have arrived here from the 
lovely Dawn's blog 
where I am sure you have seen something
 amazingly gorgeous !

If you found me by accident and would like to join us in our hop you need to start from here, 
with the owner of Spiegel Mom Scraps,
 the very talented Jody.

I haven't made a layout for several years and have just realised how much I've missed it!

I really enjoyed playing around, adding texture, stamping with my lovely Lavinia stamps and sprinkling my brushos.

I did some clever cutting with my ScanNcut too

I hope you've enjoyed taking a look at my layout, 
the next stop on the hop is the talented Karen.
 I can't wait to see what beauty 
she has in store for us to see!
I'm using this layout for the following challenges:-
2CCC26, no cards,
Scrap it May, Stitching or sewing,
Sketchabilities 138, Sketch,

Fancy A Treasure Hunt?

As National Scrapbooking Day is almost here, 

Spielgel Mom Scraps and Southern Girls

 are challenging you today.

The third of the challenges is a treasure hunt.

We would love it if you joined in with the fun!

You need to use a project that's still in it's packaging, an office supply, something gold and some cork.

My first ever Bind it all project!

I hadn't got any cork embellishments so I took my craft knife to a cork to make the centre of my flower.

The pages are Kraft envelopes, folded and covered with DP.
It's all ready to add photos and embelishments!

I need to do this sort of thing more often!

It's amazing how many bits and pieces you can use up.

Mini books make excellent gifts too!

I'm using this mini book  for the following challenges:-
