Travel scrapbook page

I'm playing along with Week 76 Magazine Cover challenge at Papercrafter's Corner.
Here is the cover:


So I've taken inspiration from the vintage look and the suitcases and also the fact that she is waiting.

My layout is about us waiting in the airport for a flight. My husband and son are passing their time on our netbook utilising the Airport's free wifi.  I've used a wonderful background paper by Bo Bunny that is vintage inspired and has suitcases on it. All of the elements I've used are travel and vintage in nature.

I'm also entering this layout into The Scrapbook Store's November sketch. I think it looks quite vintage in nature and all the business is in the centre of the page. The background paper colour is the same as well. Of course it is flipped around as I have a landscape photo rather than a portrait one.

Here is their sketch.

Family - scrapbook layout

Today's layout is for the quote challenge at Mad about Scrappin'.  You had to use Family Together We Have It All.

Here is my layout.

This is a special photo as it's not very often we have our photo taken together and even rarer to have it done by a professional.  Happily, one of the Mum's at Mark's School was willing to do a shoot on his Graduation night and her rate was very reasonable. I made sure we all colour matched (according to what Mark chose to wear).

Layout for Scrapbookit - Explore

Above is the very appealing sketch for October's challenge at Scrapbookit. I felt compelled to do a page for it.  I started by adding a border in each corner using a stencil and 2 coloured pens. I added a cool travel pp and two types of mist. I loved The Avenues door pp by Bo Bunny.  I felt it went really well with my photo. I had to print it in black and white as that's the additional criteria for the challenge. I love how the sunlight looks in the photo. Well done to my husband with this lucky effect of his photography.

Two layouts of hubby

Yesterday I had some time to scrap. Yucky, rainy old day here in Perth. I did two layouts of my husband Paul when he was a younger man. One I can show you now and one will have to wait til later. This one is using a photo from 1994.  He's receiving a prize for a course he did.

I've created this layout using Anna's Craft Cupboard's sketch for September 2013.  Go here to check out the gallery.
I've used some old Basic Grey on a black background. The colours in my photo were quite rich with the wood, creams, greens and golds. I've also added some Bo Bunny rub-ons and a G45 tag.
