Ho Ho Ho

I'm sharing another page for Twilight Crafts and Jenny Wren Cut-Files today. This time I used the Shaker Pocket Colour Wheel cut-file, but I only used the inner parts to cut eight segments from some old 6x6 Christmas papers.

I smooshed some green ink over the background and then reassembled the segments into a circle, offsetting some of the pieces slightly and popping up some of the corners on foam squares. 

I matted my photo a few times, including a cream layer to stop it merging into the background. The photo is one that my cousin sent me and it looks like it was taken in a studio so there's no story to go with it. I took my title directly from the large ornament in the photo, adding it to another mat that sits behind both the title and the photo.


My final steps were to add a selection of ephemera pieces to surround the photo,  spatter gold paint across the page and doodle gold lines around the edge. I added a small amount of journalling (names and date) after I took the above photo.

Build a Snowman

Today I'm sharing my first December DT page for Twilight Crafts, featuring another Jenny Wren cut-file. Sorry that all you're getting at the moment are DT posts; my crafting time is being taken by other things at the moment but I hope to be back to a more normal schedule in the new year.

I originally scrapped these photos back in 2012, but I chose a grey and green colour scheme then and I've never really liked the page. It's been ear-marked for a re-make in blue for almost a year and I've finally done it, using the Snowman cut-file for my title. 

I originally used eight small photos, but I ditched half of them for the new version, matting them in a block to follow a sketch from Lisa Sikorski at Scrap a Sketch.

I had one full sheet and one part sheet of paper left from Echo Park's Winter Magic collection; some careful gutting and the addition of a sheet of navy cardstock allowed me to get a few layers and to use the patterns from both sides of the snowflake paper. 



I was really pleased that I could layer the snowflake 'O' of my title exactly over one printed on the paper. I added a large pearl to the centre of that one and then added small ones to a selection of snowflakes across the paper. 

I am so much happier with this page than I was with the original version, and I'm one step closer to finishing my 2012 album. Two pages left to go there, and I have photos printed and papers chosen for one of them!

West Pier Sunset


Twilight Crafts are half-way through a '12 Days of Christmas' cybercrop over in their Facebook group, and today it's my turn to set the challenge. I've chosen a stash challenge based around the letters of the alphabet. I'm asking people to choose any four consecutive letters of the alphabet and then choose an item of stash for each letter; for my sample page I chose butterfly stickers, a cut-file, die-cut tags and enamel dots for BCDE.


My photo (or rather my daughter's photo) is of sunset over (the remains of) the West Pier in Brighton and the page will go in her University Years scrapbook. I started out with the Criss Cross Grid cut-file from Jenny Wren Cut-Files which I cropped down as my Silhouette Portrait can only cut 8" x 12". I cut it in grey cardstock, backed the open stripes with papers from 7 Dots Studio  and flipped it round to be on the left of my page.

I had a sheet of die-cut tags from the collection so layered some of the larger ones behind my photo and tucked a couple of the smaller ones in next to my title, adding three trios of enamel dots. At this point I had used C, D and E from the alphabet and had a decision to make between adding B or F; the butterfly stickers were on my desk, rejected from another page, so they were an easy choice.

Watchet Harbour

Today I'm sharing my second November DT page for Twilight Crafts featuring a Jenny Wren Cut-File.

On my last page for them (In Grandma's Bath) I used the Overlapping Circles Background cut-file as a mask to ink a pattern on my page. Once I'd finished, I decided to re-use the inky mask as a layer on a new page. First I added extra yellow ink to the mask to extend the colour to the edges, then found a photo and rummaged through my scraps box for suitable papers.

My photo is an old one of the lighthouse at Watchet Harbour in Somerset; the anchor print paper was perfect for the theme and the right colour too, then I picked the multi-coloured stripe, chose blue for my background and included red as an accent.

I cut my title in two fonts using my Big Shot and created three embellishment clusters from various pieces which match the colour scheme.

Show Time

I'm hopping back and forth between my cruise album and my DT work at the moment, and today it's the turn of a page from the cruise. I have three photos from the evening entertainment, one from the resident show team and one each from our two guest entertainers (a magician and a comedian).

The layout's quite simple, with the photos in a block alongside a column of journalling with title above and a few tickets below to embellish. I repeated a ticket with some tags at the top left.

In Grandma's Bath

Overlapping Circles
Today I'm sharing the first of my November DT pages for Twilight Crafts featuring Jenny Wren Cut-Files. This time I chose to use a cut-file as a mask, covering half my page with distress inks daubed through the Overlapping Circles pattern.

I continued the circles theme by machine-stitching three circles on the page and matted my photos on three papers from my scraps box. Back to circles in my embellishments as I scattered rain dots around to reflect the bubbles in my nephew's bath.

Sumburgh Head

Back to my cruise album, but I'm no longer scrapping chronologically. We lost most of our scenic cruising on the Sunday due to fog, but I am recording one photo anyway. We had a geologist and a historian onboard who gave lectures on the geology and history of Scotland that shaped the area we were visiting and also provided commentary on the sections of scenic cruising. At one point the geologist told guests to 'use your imagination' as he described the land lost in the fog and I mentally reserved the phrase for use in my scrapbook with my foggy photo.

I based my page on a sketch from Twilight Crafts which they published to celebrate having 300 members in their Facebook group. I played with the layers, added an embellishment cluster above the photo and moved the title across against it.

I dropped the banner as I generally don't like them, and chose tags for the basis of my embellishment cluster to tie this page in to others I've already made.

Snack Attack

I made this page a few weeks back, and missed blogging it at the time. It was for a challenge from Peartree Cutfiles to use circles on a page. I picked a couple of photos of our son as a baby and the end of an old paper collection to kill. I had no full sheets left so went with a half-and-half background, using a free circles cut-file to cover the join and adding extra circles with candi dots and epoxy dots.

Tea for Two

I'm sharing another page for Twilight Crafts today and this one uses two Jenny Wren Cut-Files. I went for the Tea for Two file as I had photos from an afternoon tea to scrap, and also chose Cupcake Elements so that I could fill the open Os of the title with tiny cupcakes.

I used the remains of Vicki Boutin's Storyteller collection for my page, and the pieces I had left dictated the layout of the page to some extent. I used a couple of strips across the top of the page, added a branding strip across the bottom and matted my photos on the only suitable pattern that was large enough to hold them.

I'd originally thought of backing the title with several colours from a stripy paper, but changed my mind as the page came together, sticking with a peach which was close in colour to my photo mats.

Loch Eriboll

Back to my Scottish cruise scrapbook and the afternoon that we spent sailing down Loch Eriboll and back. This should be my only double page in the album and I had planned to use two sheets of Heidi Swapp paper as my background as I only had one of each of the 49 & Market papers. However when I turned over the last page I made, I realised that the other side of that background was the plainish brown from the collection so I could use that instead to make up the pair. 

I had five landscape photos, a smaller portrait photo and a great deal of journalling, which fell into a series of columns across the page. 



I made my title with a mix of one word cut on the Silhouette and one word in puffy stickers, repeating the trick of curving the smaller word around some of the letters in the larger one to eliminate any trapped white space between the words.

Puddle Season

I recently joined the design team at Twilight Crafts for a three month term, and today I'm sharing my first creation for them, featuring the umbrella cut-file from Jenny Wren Cut-Files. 

My photo's an old one of my nephew which I've scrapped before but my old page makes me cringe whenever I see it, so it was time for a re-do.

I chose papers from Cocoa Vanilla Studio's Daydream collection for my  new page and paired them with puffy stickers from their newer These Days collection as the colours and patterns are very similar.


I don't have any ephemera from either collection but I was able to cut the rainbow and the flower clusters from two 12x12 papers.

Whiten Head

Whiten Head wasn't on our list of scenic cruising but we were glad we were on deck as we passed as the cliffs, cave and sea stacks were worth seeing. 

I printed a couple of photos, matted them together and layered them over a column of paper strips, which ties in with this month's challenge from Hey Little Magpie.


I built an embellishment cluster to the right of the photos, based around a filmstrip die-cut, and placed my title (cut on the Silhouette) above it. The way the words fitted together left some open space which I filled with some ephemera pieces.

Fireworks Birthday Card

It's my nephew's 18th birthday today, and I initially struggled with his card. I pushed a few design ideas around but nothing that I was happy with. Eventually I did what I should have done in the first place, and turned to the Sketch-n-Scrap blog.

This was their first sketch for World Cardmaking Day and I paired it with Echo Park's Magical Adventure 2 6x6 pad. This collection is Disney-themed but the b-sides are more versatile and the pad provided me with a set of co-ordinating papers. I based the card around the fireworks paper as being suitably celebratory.

The Old Man of Hoy

Up until now I've been scrappping our cruise in order, but our first piece of scenic cruising was Duncansby Sea Stacks, and I missed printing one of the photos I want for that page so I'm skipping over it for now.

The second sight should have been The Needle, on the coast of the island of Hoy, but that was lost in the mist, which brings us to the Old Man of Hoy, one of the tallest sea stacks in the UK and the subject of this page. It was still misty so the Old Man wasn't easy to see, but the photos have printed quite dark and less distinct than they are on my screen. I've scrapped what I have, but also lightened them for reprinting in the next batch of photos I order, and I'll swap the prints over later.

I started off using one of last month's sketches from Sketch-n-Scrap as it had the two photo sizes I'd printed and the tags at the top tie in with the tags on the last page I made. However, I flipped it horizontally and then played about with the paper layers and moved the title so it wasn't a close likeness by the time I'd finished.

This is the first page where I've used a paper other than those I chose from 49 & Market; the brown map is from Heidi Swapp, but I think it's a good match for the colours and prints of Vintage Artistry Anywhere.

Welcome Aboard

Next page for my cruise album and the photo's from the evening of our first full day, which was a formal dinner. There would normally have been a 'Welcome Aboard' cocktail party first; covid cancelled that but I still used the phrase for my title.

I used a sketch by Lisa Sikorski from her new Scrap a Sketch group on Facebook, but played with the size and positioning of the paper layers to suit my shorter tags, cut with my favourite tag die.

Goodbye Dover

I chose the title of this page to reflect that of the last one (Hello Bolette) and they will sit opposite each other in the album. 

I chose a couple of photos for our departure from Dover and matted them together over band of map print paper from the 6x8 pack which I cut and stretched. I ran a branding strip above it and tore a plain strip to go below it.

I'd already earmarked the pink 'Away We Go' piece for this page and I built a cluster of ephemera for it to sit in (including a pair of suitcases which I'd originally thought would be too big to use). That was the only pink apart from the background at that point, so I added the three die-cut arrows and also used it for the main word of my title which gave a better balance to the page.

There's no journalling for once as there was really nothing to say.

Hello Bolette

I very rarely create pages on both sides of a paper these days, but those from 49 & Market are impressively thick, heavier weight than many brands of cardstock, so I didn't hesitate when I noticed that the back of the last page would make a good basis for the next.

This one's an introduction to the ship we cruised on, Fred. Olsen's Bolette which was previously Holland America's Amsterdam and had been refurbished during the cruising shutdown. We sailed on her second voyage and it's unlikely to be the last; we greatly prefer her to Boudicca, the ship she replaced.


I took both photos from atop the White Cliffs of Dover, one of the ship and one of the whole harbour. It's actually quite hard to see Bolette in the bottom photo so I added a small vellum sticker with an arrow pointing at her. I double-matted my pair of photos, with the back layer offset to hold a column of ephemera pieces.

I cut the word 'Bolette' on my Silhouette, and gave it an offset for increased stability as I layered it over the bottom photo. The word 'Hello' gave me more trouble as placing it horizontally gave me trapped space between the two words. I tried a few sizes and fonts of letter stickers before realising that I could curve the word around the 'l' in Bolette.

Scottish Seacation

I often don't make the title page of a holiday album until near the end, but this time it's the first one to be done. I've long had the idea of using a map to show where we sailed, possibly in conjunction with a few highlight photos, but in the end it was just the map that I used.

I printed the map from our cruise operator at the right size to mat it on a 6x8 paper with a black and white border similar to those on a nautical chart. By chance, this made the top part the perfect size to frame with one of the ephemera pieces.


I used one of the Vintage Artistry Sky papers as my background, and stencilled a large compass on it before adding my map, tucking a paper strip and a tab on the right side and a quote at the top. I cut one word each of my title on my Big Shot and my Silhouette and layered them over the empty space on my map.

A New Project - Cruise Scotland 2021

Our cruise to Scotland last month was only a short one and I haven't decided yet whether it will get its own album or be included with the 2021 album. Whichever way it goes I will be basing the pages around 49 and Market's Vintage Artistry Anywhere Collection.


I have the 6x8 paper pack, the ephemera and the washi stickers, but only five of the 12x12 papers as I intend to augment them with the remains of my Vintage Artistry in Color Collectors Edition. That collection had papers in sky blue, sage green and coral and the plainer papers coordinate well with Anywhere. 


The Collectors Edition pack also included washi tape and ephemera, some of which will work with a travel theme (though I don't expect to use the leaves).

Stepping away from 49 and Market, I bought a few sheets of matching cardstock  and went through my stash for other papers (Crate Paper, My Mind's Eye, Heidi Swapp and Simple Stories). I've added in cork arrows and geo-tags and cork-effect stars from Studio Calico along with map print epoxy arrows from Freckled Fawn.


I haven't bought any letter stickers, but I do have a newish set of small letter dies and my Silhouette for larger words. I like a repeating motif and will pull in my trusty compass stamp and a new (to me) compass mask. Finally, I have a few washi tapes, some starry sequins, an assortment of ends of sticker sheets and a couple of part packs of October Afternoon tidbits (from the Travel Girl and Treasure Map collections).


As always, I'm open to adding more pieces to this selection and when I do that I will keep the new pieces with the rest in order to repeat them across the album.

A Different Mayflower

A few months ago I made an additional page for my 2019 album in order to fill in a gap in the story of our daughter's university choice (Yes to University of Sussex). That created a gap in the album which I'm returning to fill now. 

There were a couple of candidates for subjects that I hadn't previously scrapped, and I chose a photo of a steam engine called Mayflower. I had read something on line a few days earlier about her being driven along our local line en route to the Bluebell Railway in Sussex and I turned out early one Saturday to see her go past.

I picked my way through my scraps box for vintage/distressed papers in soft blues, rusty reds and muted browns (based off of the stripy paper to the left of my photo) and cut them into strips which I lined up across the page. I then tucked a mix of ephemera and die-cut labels in among the strips, making the cluster on the right larger than the one on the left.

The Two Towers

My final page from Dungeness, and the Two Towers of my title are the old and new lighthouses there. My photos are just smaller than 4x5 and I placed them in opposite corners on separate stacks of paper layers. The bottom layer of each stack is a navy L-shaped piece to echo the large paper square on the first page I made from this day (Listen Very Carefully).


I've mostly journalled on paper strips for this series of pages, but I originally used a journalling card for the first page and I've brought that back here too. My title repeats three styles of letter stickers that I'd previously used, and my embellishment clusters make use of scraps topped with epoxy arrows in two sizes.

Birthday Lunch at The Pilot

Next page from Dungeness now, with our pub lunch. I printed four photos at 3x4 and matted them in a block. I have a growing pile of scraps now from the first three pages and those pieces determined the paper layers behind that photo block.


I repeated two of the letter styles that I've used on the other pages, and found a peel-off 'Birthday' to fit between the L and h of 'Lunch'.

Childhood Memories

I'm still in Dungeness for this page, which features engines from the Romney, Hythe and Dymchurch narrow gauge railway. We used to visit the railway regularly when I was a child, and I've taken my son there too, so seeing the engines again made me get a bit nostalgic.

I've been using a four-colour palette for these pages, so I picked one pattern in each colour for a quadrants page this time and stacked my photos up in a column with scraps and branding strips tucked under the edge.

Discover Dungeness

Before we went away, I'd embarked on a series of pages for a day walk around Dungeness in Kent. I'm making them out of order so this one comes before the last one I shared and is a double page overview of the day.

The '-ness' part of Dungeness means headland, the area is sort of V-shaped with the sea on the two sides of the V, and it's mostly covered in shingle which was very hard on the legs.

I started these pages with a colour palette of yellow ochre, magenta and navy from Heidi Swapp's Wanderlust collection, and I've added aqua into the mix for this one. I've used a slightly odd positioning for my title, splitting it across two places and running the words in different directions, but they fit so well where they are and I don't mind if they are read as title and embellishment instead.
