Good Afternoon, I haven't got a card to share today, but I do have my First Ever Scrapbook Page. This week Rainbow Lady's Challenge is Island Paradise. As I live on an island I thought it would be good to do something with Shetland Pictures, so I decided to make a scrapbook page. I used Craft Artist for the layout and verse and printed the main picture of Stuart and Kayla (grandchildren) onto photopaper so that I could 3d it. They were here for a holiday in 2009 and we had glorious weather, so we went to one of many fabulous beaches here in the Northern Isles - St Ninian's Isle. The picture in the bubble is an image of the same place that I found, courtesy of Google.
I started using pictures of shells, but then remembered that I found a bag in my local craft shop and couple of months back. I bought them thinking they might come in useful at some point, and they did.
I quite enjoyed creating this piece, and might even look out some other pics of the little ones and have another go. I hope you like my page and many thanks for visiting

Beryl, this is a beautiful scrapbook page and made special by featuring your grandchildren. Between that sentence and this one, I have googled the Shetland Islands. Wow, Beryl, you aren't anywhere near a craft store, are you? We were in Durness a number of years ago and thought it was pretty remote. But beautiful, as I am sure your islands are.
ReplyDeleteCan't help but like this one Beryl, you have made a lovely page and as it features your grandchldren it makes it very special. Thanks for joining in with us at Rainbow Lady's this week.

ReplyDeleteWonderful Beryl... you see challenging yourself to do something different paid off. Thanks so much for a look at your island. Love Cynthia x
ReplyDeleteWell done you - I haven't tried scrapbooking yet.
ReplyDeleteI did visit the Shetland's once - backin the 70s when I worked for BA Helicopters - but it wasn't beach weather at the time of year I went and most of time was stuck in the office sorting out pay problems. However, I did see the seals from my bedroom window - so have at least one good memory!
