Some scrapbooking and a little Soulology ...
September 19, 2008
Here's a couple of quick layouts I have finished this week. Just wanted to post them before I went and picked Josh up for the school holidays. I'm looking forward to having him home and no school runs for the next 2 weeks. We even have a few days planned down at the beach which will be very relaxing.
This layout uses the Stampin' Up! Crew Kids Boy Simply Scrappin' Kit! It was a perfect match for the colours in the photo down't you think. It was a quick and easy one to put together as everything matched everything else! It also shows a quick and easy way to do stamped titles. I just stamped onto patterned paper and made letter tiles and pieced them together for an informal look. Love my Stampin' up! Jumbo Outline Alphabet. I love how it doesn't overwhelm the layout, and it's lower case - my fave!.
Then there's this one of Sam's first steps (can't believe that's over two years ago now!). Lots of different products on this one, but my outline alphabet makes an appearance again. It's great to use when you want to place slightly less emphasis on on one of the words in your title. He looks very pleased with himself in the middle photo doesn't he. I love that I have this captured in a layout.
Really excited to say that Erika Martin (Stampin Mama) has asked me to be on her design team for the Soulology Project Online Course starting late October. If you are into 'me' pages and journalling from the heart you HAVE to do this course. I have had the opportunity to look through the 10 week workbook and it's awesome! This will be such a creative journey and I can't wait to create my pages each week for the 10 weeks! Check it out or in the link in the sidebar on the right) and make sure you tell Erika I sent you when you register.
Have a great weekend,
Claire xx
Love the Lo's, esp the cousins one. The colours are fantastic and work very well together.

I like the layout of the baby steps one- in part because of the pictures I have to admit. Both layouts look great.

I love your layouts Claire, they are perfectly on the thirds, is that why they work so well? and those round edges do something to the eye - great ideas.
