This is another layout for my Thailand album. The woven borders are created using the smaller zig-zag from the free basic borders that I created. The idea for these borders came from a lady called Donna Bobbie who unfortunately passed away several years ago. Thankfully for all of us her incredible talent has been preserved in a whole heap of .pdf's and handouts. If you want to see and be inspired by Donna's work follow the LINK
Hi all. It is blazing hot here today which is the perfect reason to share some water pages with you. I know these will kick start any ideas you might have to scrap water themed pages. First off is Marlene's adorably cute page. She created this "beach bums" page using some festive waves and neatly designed fish. I like how the background mimics the beach colors and then the waves comes from the bottom of the page. This is a great idea for those beach photos you might have laying around. Vicky did an amazing job capturing her adorable daughter near the water. She embellished her page with sweet flowers and doilies with folded pages and a bit of distressing. Also check out that butterfly and how she created it!! Anupama used a vintage photo of her father, a marine engineer, in this water themed page. There are so many neat aspects of this like, the map background and the vintage items. Also check out the postcard ship in the background, just perfect for this photo. The black frame is the perfect addition to her page. Cindy created this layout of her son taking swim lessons. I like how she designed this page a lot. There are lots of action photos, but this is not crowded at all. She also used a monochromatic look except for a few orange accents. Cool idea! The next page was also created by Cindy it features some more fun swimming photos. Again look at the design of her page. So easy to follow and the photos aren't crowding the page. I love how she used the main photo in the middle of her son! Cindy also used a piece of ric rac and a title to offset her main design block. Now it's time for you to get scrapping those water themed pages!!

Whilst one half of the world is having what I hear is a VERY cold Winter, those of us south of the equator are enjoying our Summer. So with that in mind, this month I challenged my team members on our private forum to come up with a Summery project. It could be a card or a layout, or anything really. I've given them a couple of examples and thought I'd show you too. This is a simple scrap page that I created in MDS. Turquoise and yellow says Summer to me :-) I love creating lovely things in MDS, with the bonus being that there is no mess... in fact I did this one on the laptop whilst watching something on the telly. Must print it out and add it to the album.... I'll be back with another project for you tomorrow. Might fire the video up today and make a tutorial :-)
