A layout for My Scrap Corner

A Danish magazine, called My Scrap Corner, is now closing down. Unfortunately! I think the girls there was very brave and I loved that they actually tried to run a DANISH scrapbooking magazine. Well, I made a layout for a sketch showed on page 23 (issue #3) - a sketch Lisette had made. I loved the sketch - and as I now am a 12 x 12 scrapper I just had to try it. :-) And as the magazine now stops I can show the layout here:



The pictures shows my two boys on the first day of school in August 2007. The were so ready and they looked so much forward to see their friends again.

Back to school

Yesterday a new school year started here in Denmark. My two boys were sooooo happy and they looked very much forward to go back to their friends and teachers. And they had a wonderful 1st day at school.

This pic. was taken yesterday morning before heading to school. My big one didn't want to be on the photo... but I forced him! haha!! Look at his grumpy face! ;-)

My youngest one is 7 (turns 8 next month) and are in 2nd grade now. The big one is 9 (turns 10 next month) and his in 4th grade.

I wanted to scrap in the weekend and I wanted to use some photos of my youngest son doing his homework. I didn't know how to place the 3 photos - so I drew a sketch myself. My first attempt in making a LO-sketch. It was fun!!

Here's the sketch:

And here's my layout:

Products used: Sassafras Lass "playtime" paper, dots are cut out from a Creative Imaginations paper, photo frame, Vellum tag, ribbon bought in a local store, letters for the title are alphabet tiles from Hot of the Press.
