From pin to reality | Halloween banner

Finally I have a new From pin to reality post!

 

 

Link to pin!

 

I wanted to make a simple Halloween banner and went on a search for a template. I found this simple free download and used the template to make this banner.

 

 

Instead of just making the banner with the pumpkin and bat I used on of my thrifted old books and used pages for a background. 

It fits in just right in our hallway!

This ofcourse involves a bit of fussy cutting, so this might be something for an older child. But if an adult cut the shapes a child could easily glue them to the background and embellish it!

 

Project Life 2013 | Week 40

This was our week 40. I have no idea of why I haven´t shared week 39...I will have to check that and come back :)

For this week I asked my love and daughter to take a photo and text it to me at a different time during the day. They were more than willing to help out. This way I had a photo of what each of us did at a specific time each day. I added the three photos and a small note  for every day monday through friday. 

Just super simple, but very meaningful for us. 

And then the rest of the pockets (the three last) are stories from our weekend. It was fun to do something out of the ordinary for this week! 

Right now in my corner of the world

Happy Friday!

Re-Scrap 2013 | October inspiration pages

Here are the inspiration pages for Re-Scrap October.

I like throwing in different sizes on layouts in my albums!

A low color hue. Wonder if I will go with that or use some color on my new layout?

And one of my favorite designs. Simple yet awesome!

Re-Scrap 2013 | September finished pages

I was going to share this post a bit earlier last week, but life got in the way and here I am a few days into the new month. Here are my three new layouts I have made with the inspiration of three old ones I have done before. This is a project I have done for almost 2 years and I call it Re-Scrap; every month I choose three of my older layouts that I like and draw inspiration from them to make three new ones. This way even if I don´t get any other scrapbooking done, atleast I know i will have three layouts each month! 

Old layout (and i love this design!)

 

A photo of my daughter and her new baby brother. I think I could use this layout on every page. I think it is just the right amount of place to add patterned paper. 

Old layout.

I had to make a layout about how much tomatos we got this year! I used one PL card from the Midnight edition and patterned papers trimmed down to size for the others. 

Old layout.

This is how we hangout together in 2013 :) However we all sit with our devices and everyone is ok with it!

And there you have it; Re-Scrap September. Done. 

Happy (autumn) Sunday!
