Matching Card and Envelope

I have a wonderful friend, Rachel. She is one of those people who really appreciates beautiful cards.For her birthday this year I made a pretty card with a matching envelope. This set is made with some cute Dear Lizzy stickers, a Basic Grey Hopscotch collection glazed brad, and 7 Gypsies (I think) paper.

I thought I would show you what how it turned out to wet your appetite, cause I’m going to do a little tutorial on how to make a set for YOUR friends soon!

Thanks for visiting my site again! keep checking back for more updates!

The Sea Of Galilee

This is probably one of my favourite scrapbooking pages from our 2009 Travel Scrapbook. I love the texture. The buttons, and the wood letters all stick up from the page, adding depth. I also really love that each photo has a word on it- breaking away from the traditional ‘title’ look.

The journalling says: “The church of the Beatitudes celebrates Jesus’ sermon on the mount. Matthew Chapters 5-7“

Buttons give great texture...

Inspiration…

I have these photos that I need to scrapbook for our holiday scrapbook. I don’t particularly want to do something the same as all the others, and I don’t want to put in HEAPS of papers, cause they’re expensive. Any ideas or inspiration to give?

This is at Nimrod's Fortress. It's the biggest fortress/stronghold in Israel. The tank is from a war...

This is from quad biking up to the top of a mountain. The peacocks are from the Kabutz we stayed at that night.
