May Blog HOP for Scrap Whispers

Scrapwhispers Blog Hop (Making Bows)

Georgina made a wonderful tutorial up using extra paper scraps to make an adorable easy to do BOW.  Check out the full tutorial at the Scrap Whispers Site.

This is an easy little bow to make as well using up scraps, I use it often for gifts and mini-albums.

Come on over to Scrapwhispers on May 15 to check out our blog hop; that each design team member will show their lift of Georginas Bow.

Welcome to Scrap Whispers National Scrapbooking Day!

Welcome to Scrap Whispers National Scrapbooking Day:

Here is a special family recipe that has been in my family for years.  I thought I should scrapbook it for all heritage purposes and the added bonus is that it is in my Moms own handwriting.  That will be very special in the years to come.

In order to participate in this challenge for Scrap Whispers National Scrapbooking day you must do the following:

1) Scraplift my LO of a family recipe any way you want.  Maybe a similar recipe, maybe the same colors, maybe the handwriting.  Any way you wish.
2) You have to link back your completed challenge  to Scrap Whispers main blog
3) In order to be eligible for my BLOG CANDY you need to become a follower of mine ; over on the side, and you have to answer this question in a comment below:  What is one food that you detest and one food you love?

Studio J 2 Single LO from one Studio J LO

Many people ask me if there is a one page LO option for studio J.  The answer is Yes and No.
I often do two single page LO from one Studio J LO.  Here is an example.

Scraplifting give it a try with Scrapwhispers

Join Scrapwhispers Friday April 22 for a blog hop.  Sign ups for the next game of Scrapwhispers will start soon.

Take a look at these two layouts.  They have the same overall template to them that I switched up to fit my pictures and journalling.  Hope you like them.

Circle Journal 2

Circle Journal

Scrapwhispers March Bloghop

Thank you in participating in this my first ever blog hop. The tutorial for this month is how to make the fantastic flowers you see above. They are so pretty and add a touch of whimsy and color to any of your scrapbooking.

I am taking part in a circle journal and have used the heart flowers on my title page, and the spiral flowers and daisys on my definition page. I changed things up just a little by using a scalloped circle for some of the spiral flowers and I didn't use any brads.

Be sure to check out the actual tutorial here: http://scrapwhispers.blogspot.com/p/jan-2010.html


There is a great prize up for grabs for participating.

Please visit each of our Design Team member blogs, and leave a comment on each one and leave a comment on the main tutorial blog on the Scrapwhisper site in order to be eligible for the prize.

Our design team question this month: "What is your favorite scrapping style?"

I am mainly a linear scrapper, multi photo, journalling storyteller. Thats my style.


The Scrapwhispers blog has a new look and there are some big changes happening to the site in April,

you will be thrilled with all that we are preparing for you!


(Seeing as this is my first, if it doesn't work, please let me know.)

School Stuff

Some pages of DD

Trishutter Christmas card

Christmas cards (early I know)

I made 13 of these cards for a swap I am in.

Happy Birthday Cards

I made 14 happy birthday cards like this and then by just changing the sentiment I made two more sympathy cards.

Halloween card variation

I made 13 of these cards for a swap I was in.

Boys and Their Toys

I did this layout using Passages from CTMH for a swap that I was in:

I liked using this seemingly travel related paper for something totally different.

A Canadian in the USA

These were taken at the upper falls in Yellowstone park last August.  My daughter a Canadian loved being tall enough to touch the huge flags that were hanging at the gift shop.

My Dad

This is a swap I did with some CTMH ladies using papers from the Summer Catalog.  This is the Passages paper and I just love it.  It is so very versatile.
