Alma Park Zoo Mini album

-




































I created this mini album of all the animals the kids saw when they went to the zoo. The album is 15cm x 15cm so I got four pages out of one piece of cardstock. To be really quick I inked all the chipboard rather than painting or covering in paper as I had an afternoon to myself and really wanted to get this completed.
The papers I used I got from K-Mart in a pack and they're all animal prints (peacock feather, snake skin, giraffe, zeebra etc) This kit was really cheap (under $6).
All the items used came from my stash so there was no new spending to complete this project..... but I've estimated the whole album cost around $10.00.

Hi, I was wondering if there was a way for me to view your previous posts? I can't seem to find anything on your page that lets me look at older ones. Thanks

Hi, yes you can look at previous posts. If you check out the right hand column under the slide you'll find "Previous Posts" as you look at each one it will give you a list of the previous 10 posts from that post. So it could take a while to look that way. But you can search for topics that interest you and you'll get posts that relate to that topic (see search tool function top left hand tool bar.

Hope that's what you're looking for and thanks for reading me. ciao Scrapmiser

Cardstock only Layouts

-

After looking at the cost of a layout I'm going to challenge myself to do some cardstock only layouts (not for my wedding though). Do you think you could manage it? Well I'm not sure but I'm gonna give it a go. But it does get a little ridiculous the costs, con't you think? So I'm going to challenge myself to do a layout using cardstock and patterned paper only! Of course not having a cricuit or sizzix or anything this will mean hand cutting my title....... painstaking... BUT I think it'll be a challenge artistically too. These layouts were done by Deb of Toowoomba and you can see how she's used her paper and cardstock to acentuate her photo's theme.... I especially love the dolphin! When I went to a scrapbook evening recently one of the ladies did a fabulous layout using paper piecing. She made Dora the Explorer layous and her 'dora' was fantastic. I don't think I have that much patience but punching and tearing are right up my alley. Bu...

Coffee Mugs are Finished

Here are the digi scrapped coffee mugs I told you about a few posts back. They're back from the "printer". These were really easy to do. I first created my document that I was digi scrapping and I made the size of the document 4" x 6'" (a standard photo). I then decorated that page using my digital scrapbooking papers and embellishments and finally added the photos. I then went to my local photo lab and uploaded these images to their software and chose to have them printed on mugs. (I chose the stretch option which stretches the image around the mug. So then I had to resize the image to get all my decorations on the mug). And here they are! It only took them a week to print them! So if you're thinking of doing this for a christmas present I think you may just get it back in time...... but check with your photo lab to make sure they could get it back to you before Christmas. I'm happy with the result..... hope the recipients will be too?

Digiscrap a PhotoBook when on special!

-

Have you ever wondered what to do with all that beautiful digitally scrapbooked work? Well you could print a photo book. I save all my pages up and then when there's a special on (Like the recent $9.95 for a 19 page book at Big W) I go in and get them printed. This way I have a hard copy of my work to show people and I get the pages printed very cheaply... that's around 52 cents per page. Just remember though the specials are more commonly done for the smaller books 8 x 8 etc. So when doing your layouts keep that in mind.
