toif 4 fity ¢

When the first tooth falls out, the next one isn't far behind. I had a play with the title with the idea of 2 hundry & fity k in mind, hence the toif 4 fity ¢

 

tumby time 2013

I love to document our annual holiday by the sea with photos. I then template them to make maximum use of as many images I can to tell the stories and trigger the memories.

I usually do a his and hers for each of their albums. Similar but not quite as each one is tailored to each kiddo.

 

golf

Back in 2013 I first tried my hand at that funny game called golf. I never would have guessed in time how much I would love the game. The first outing was a great day and I've recorded it in detail for memory keeping. I kept the scorecard from the day and the newspaper report of that day too.

 

2to2

Cocoa Vanilla Studio Daydream is just so dreamy to play with. I just can't get enough of it. 

All the blooms were fussy cut from the floral paper in the collection.

 

totally awesome

This LO bolted together with the red in the rainbow and the red jumper. Loving all things rainbow atm.

Title fussy cut from the Simple Stories Bro&Co collection.

 

be the rainbow

Totally inspired by Stefanie Ried from the Paige Evans design team. Title shameless pinched from a line in the Skittles ad.

 

gappy

At a recent scrappy 4 day weekend away, it became a fussy cut weekend for me. Nearly every LO had fussy cut elements on it. This one was loosely inspired by Marie of lottielovespaper.co.uk that I found on Pinterest. It was mostly the Vicki Boutin rainbow coloured stars that grabbed my eye.

 

#nifty50 & feeling fab

Turning 50 ain't so bad. Especially taking 4 days to celebrate it with friends, cocktails and scrapbooking. A very special Mel put in a special effort with the gold decorations and loving birthday touches. She made me feel pretty spesh. Another dear friend brought along a gold star piñata which I've repurposed the golden fringing on this LO.  Gotta love keeping a piece of that weekend forever preserved. 

 

my favourite people

The Daydream range from Cocoa Vanilla Studio is just divine. The perfect blend of pastel rainbow colours and rainbows are so me right now.

saucy saturday

no embellishing or journalling required. 

 

this is us

This is a loose interpretation of Gelencser Anett's LO with a Tiff twist. 

I'm so loving all things rainbow atm.

you & me

I tried to move the gold journal strips to the top of the page, but I damaged the pic at little in trying to remove them so they've stayed put. I feel they cut the photo in half rather than letting it flow from the top to the bottom of the page. No matter. It's done and I've moved on.

 

ice cream

Sometimes, and its been more than once, I've done a photo for what I call 'scrapbooking purposes' with certain embellishments in mind. There's been a flurry of icecream puffy ephemera lately that just begged to be used but I didn't have a photo for them. I've gone back after the photo was taken and done some pastel rainbow splats that worked with each of the squares as I felt the LO was missing them.

Doing a bit circle work on this one.

Who said you can't use pink and red together??!
