12 by 12 pages.

When i was sent the personal shopper box. I was immediately over whelmed by the amount of stash you got. And at first i admit i was a bit in shock. I spent nearly an hour looking through, sorting out the themes and what i was going to use on what page.

I have been scrapbooking for years and i can honestly say i have never ever thought about doing an autumn page or a halloween page. But the stuff here was to good to not use.

The first page i did was using the fall pages from the kit. Now the photos that i have taken do not do the colours of these papers or embellishments any justice as they are much richer in person.
I hand drew the big flowers, but everything else came out of the kit. I used a white pen to add dots round the flowers and the photographs, and the square embellishments under the title are so gorgeous i wanted to keep them. One of the things i like about the kit is you get a sheet with the green square on which is perfect for writing your journaling on and there is more than one!!!

My next page was a Halloween theme. I have never done one of these before ,but i had a photo of Harry sitting around for ages and had finally had the supplies to make it. I even challenged myself to do the 'first time' challenge from the blog, and did an 8 by 8. I really struggle with this size and i will not tell you how long it took me to do as it was an embarrassingly long time.



I have lots of other things i made with this kit but they will wait for another time. So keep checking back.
