Hi, hope your are all well..... busy here at the moment need to find a new rental to move to so as you can image its chaos, but at least it allows a great clean out of stuff we don't need and its always good to get a head start with some packing...

 

As I have previously mentioned I am in the process of create and album for my Mother, using my grandparents photos, I must admit heritage photos isn't my usual comfort zone so I have struggled a little bit. I am unsure why, but hopefully I am doing the photos and the products justice, I love this range by Carte Bella as its pastel colours work with the sepia tones in a photo, so if you have heritage photos you need to work with why don't you pop into Made with Memories and grab some of this range.....

Hi, I am Rikki and I have "collection" issues...

If anyone has seen my scrap area, you know what its like.... "a mini shop", full of everything you could ever need to get the perfect layout done, but for anyone who knows me, its the joy of having whole collections at my disposable so I don't need to go out all the time for supplies and by having "collections" the mojo can keep flowing.....

So for my Made With Memories Design team kit, it was about all the little touches and being able to finally use the things I have been collecting..... sounds good, doesn't it? the things I try and convince myself to justify my hoarding and little "shop"!

Hmmm might have to work on that a bit more, what do you think?

New Year, Renewed Mojo (fingers crossed)....

With the New Year already flying by, it has renewed my mojo and what a better way than over hauling my scrap area, 4 days of designing the area I am proud to say its done will share some photos soon. But with this over haul I hope to be more creative and organised.

During December its always hard to create but somehow I did manage it and compared to last year that's a miracle. Made with Memories for this month gave me some boy papers by Kaiser craft, and I must admit it wouldn't have been something I would have naturally gravitated to, but having said that I was quite pleasantly surprised with the creations I came up with 5 layout and 2 cars, so it just proves that you can be inspired by things that aren't you usual style (and this is what I love about being on a dt too).
