Design Your LifeAs a birthday treat to myself I signed up for Cathy Zielske’s Big Picture Scrapbooking on line class that started on my Birthday. I am behind already, no surprise there then, but I have made a start. This is my opening layout for the beginning of my album.

The brief: To create a title layout using 9 squares that show who I am as a scrapbooker. The idea was to get ‘ourselves/our style’ of scrapbooking out in these 9 squares as what is coming next from Cathy may well take us out of our own comfort zones.

Cathy has such a unique style which won’t come easy to all, I wait to see.

I used paper scraps from my scrap box, white Bazzill cardstock, my favourite Rhonna rubons, A Scenic Route chipboard negative letter. My favourite scrabble style letter tiles, a chipboard zodiac sign, die cut hearts, circle punchouts, Prima paper flowers, Doodlebug Bon Bon button, my own Ribbonrie ribbon (of course) and some pictures of my family. I quite enjoyed it hope that doing these will kick start my scrapping again. Its a start eh?

Until later xx ….
