A quick thank you card

Another quick card to add to the pile I have to make for a lady.  This one was inspired by the cybercrop at http://www.scrapofdifference.com.au/ this week - Black and white with your choice of one other colour.
Hope you like - thanks for looking.

One of my favourite spots to go for scrapbooking inspiration is Big Picture classes www.bigpictureclasses.com.  Last year they held a Big Ideas Festival with different tutors each day and all FREE.  Well, the good news is that it's happening again this year but with a different twist.  This year they are again bringing a great range of tutors and styles to the festival but with the idea of creating a mini book called Words to Live by.  Each tutor gives a new word for the day.

I loved the idea and wanted to share it and the festival with everyone at Scrap of Difference so have used the first day's word - SHARE as our word challenge for our August cybercrop.  Here is my layout featuring my DD and her bestie putting on a dance "concert" for us last Sunday by the pool.  It features a DVD which I tried (and failed i might add) to print their photo onto the front of - instead I got their middles but at least the animal print matched my papers - so all good :)

Hope you enjoy.

Mini thank you album

I recently spent a week with my brother and his family in Cairns for the school holidays.  I have spent the best part of last week creating a couple of mini albums for him featuring a smattering of the photos we took by way of saying thank you for having us stay with him.

Primarily I have used the free papers provided with the last few issues of Australian Scrapbook Ideas magazine to create the album.  Mini albums are a wonderful way of using up rub ons, smaller embellishments or die cuts or those long forgotten stickers you have hiding away.

I hope you like some of the pages here.
