Hybrid scrapbooking

this is my page for my daughter Scarlett. i designed this page on serif craft artist then printed the elements to make up the page.
i cut the black frame out using the pazzles, i cut a nappy pin embellishment to thread it through the tag.
i also added gems to give it a bit of sparkle.

this is my page for my son Oliver, i also designed this page on serif craft artist. i decoupaged the trees, buttons, tag and photo i also added the ribbon.
first hair cut page. this was designed on CAP and i just printed out the photos separate.
i cut the title out on the pazzles and coloured it with distress inks, then added the charms and a lock of her hair.
walk in the woods page this too was designed on CAP i just decoupaged the buttons and photos.
i just added the tree stump and the owl .

colourful crafty storage

i have recently sorted out my craft room and decided i wanted to make my buttons and ribbons easier to get to as they were all in boxes so i couldn't see what i had.
i put all my buttons in cleaned baby jars and stamped with distressed inks onto some calico and some tags matching the colour in the jar.
for the ribbons i found some jars filled with candles for £2.50 each so i swapped the candles for ribbon and did the tags to match. (just need 5 more lol)
