Sam's Scrapbook Process : 1956

Hi

Hope everyone is well


We have been clearing my nan's house to sell as she has moved in with my parents and I have claimed all photographs from her house. While going through them I came across some professional photos my nan had done when she was about 20. I also came across some love letters my grandad sent to her while he was away in the army.  The were very lovely dovey and  I really don't remember my grandad being like that, so I thought I'd incorporate the envelope on the layout which has my nan's old address (which has all been knocked down now) and it had the date and where my grandad posted it from. 


Used: 
Colorbök - Homespun Paper Collection
Vintage Lace
Doiley
Pearl Gems
Buttons


I love these photos of my nan. I changed my mind on the title as I was going to name it "Miss Deptford" (which was a beauty contest someone told me me nan won) But I thought I'd check and get correct date from her. She told me she never entered a beauty contest as she was far to shy! so 1. not sure who told me that tale! and 2. Yea she doesn't look shy in these photos!!

I can see where my mam gets her features from looking at these photos. I definitely don't take after my mam's side I looks like my dad's side.

On a none craft related point I got a job finally - its been nearly 8 months! I start Hays Travel (as customer service advisor for people who have booked holidays with Hays) on Monday and cant wait!

Sam's Scrapbook Process : Lovely

Hi

Hope everyone is well


Decided to do another 8x8 layout today.

It was a very quick page but love how it turned out. Just love this photo of my niece Amelia we were sitting crafting and she was examining each gem with alot of thought. We had some sticky gems so stuck them on her ears like they were pierced and she was strutting about making sure her hair was behind her ears so you could see them it was adorable!



I used:
Papers from LillyBimble  -  Paris Bebe Collection
Studio112 - Glitter Chipboard Flowers
StudioG - Flair Badge
DCWV Text Prints Stack (for the word strips)
American Crafts Everyday Set 1 Letter Stickers
Peach Embroidery Floss 
Pearl Button
Pink Heart Post-it Notes

Sam's Scrapbook Process : Nan-Nan

Hi

Hope everyone is well

Another layout using the Crafty Templates March/April kit -  Pocket Full Of Posies Quirky Kit.



I used a few extra's from my stash:
Vintage collage paper
Laurence Llewelyn-Bowen - Retro Rose Chipboard pieces
Pearl Drop Trim
American Crafts Thickers - Patchwork
Cosmic Shimmer Mist - Candy Pink & Meadow Lush



This is a 12x12 layout and the title is "Nan-Nan" The photo is of Ava my niece and my Nan (who is Ava's Great Nan). These are not A's from the sticker pack as I didn't have enough so I turned some p's into a's and the N's are U's.
