These 2 layouts were started at the monthly scrapbook crop at Loobis and finished off at home. The paper collection is from 49 and market, I thought it might be a bit too pastelly for me but I think it suited the photos. I used a stencil - not something I ususally do, to add a bit of interest to the background, although my style is busy busy I dont like any spare empty space lol. On the 'childhood memories' one I have all the journalling on the tags, all about how mum used to make our clothes and I never really appreciated it and how clever she was. I regret that. The other photo is of Emma in the back garden here just playing with her Sylvanian family toys, how she used to love them. I used a craft knife to cut out the middle bit of the page and you cant really see it but there is some white netting stuff just behind.
