Eclectic

A few days without blogging, but I've been busy and have a few things to share. I made this layout for a DT call, about what would make my perfect kit. I used some Scenic Route paper as a background which I roughed up with scissors around the edges. I then used some torn Bo Bunny paper left over from my Grown layout and also tore up pieces of my own 'homemade' book paper. I took photographs of a collection of embellishments which I thought would be cool to receive in a kit, and then used some of them on my layout. Unfortunately the scan is a little blurry, especially around the bookplate, but you get the idea!



I also finished this mini book which I started last Wednesday - its an inspiration book, full of ideas for when I've lost my scrapping mojo! Here are a few photos of some of the pages.



At the weekend, I went out and spent my birthday vouchers in Ikea, and got these fab drawers (thanks to Charlotte for alerting me to these!). I've only made up one unit so far but have managed to fit so much stuff in it, its fantastic! Hoping to get the other one built over half term next week, and then push forward and redecorate the spare room so I might actually have a (shock! horror!) desk to work at some time in the not so distant future... :)
