Make a scrapbook

I found another half finished painting, well about 1/10 complete if that, so I started painting that. I still need to finish drawing it though. Once it is finished, it will make a nice background for one of the pages. I also started another detailed blog, which I wont maintain forever, but whilst I am completing this goal. It is here http://thethriftyscrapbook.blogspot.com/
It took forever to edit, so I will do multiple post from now on the blog. Plus I will upload the last picture first, because it puts the newest uploaded picture at the top and it is really awkward moving it down and editing in the tiny box.

The picture shows my third page, but I have also stuck a miny necklace on and put some rhinestones on the flowers in the background.

I don’t really like this, but oh well

I just did it. The reason why I didn’t start it was because I didn’t want to ruin my pictures, but I have digital copies anyway. I am only scrapbooking digital photos.
I don’t want to be one of the scrap book people that spends a fortune on it. It can become really expenseive. I am making it with what I have already got and I have been saving bits and bobs for about 2 years now, but never gotten round to doing it. Well now I am. I did 2 pages today.
It may look rubbish and not be like the ones you see in books, but I think it is more creative anyway :)

one of our best friends was moving to a private boarding school after the holidays. so gradually before and through the holidays we’d meet up and do 10 more pages until it was full. we kept little things from days away or the holidays we went on together without her noticing and put them in there. everything in there had a memory, like reciepts or train tickets and she loved it. i would defo recomend it.

My scrapbook pages are looking too plain to me. I want to find a way to jazz them up some. glitter….paint…..more stickers? picture framing maybe…..something is missing.

I want to take gorgeous photos of my trips, friends, family, and daily life. Hopefully my scrapbook will be organized and colorful.

I have four pages so far, three of which are completely finished. The book was supposed to have a travel theme, but it’s already become a random jump from one thing to the next. I have one page that’s based on the theater I’ve seen, another about my trip to New York, and then one based around a normal day with the family in March

I bought some supplies, and an actual book to start off with. Now I’m just trying to decide what to scrapbook about. Places I’ve been is an idea. Then I could add to it with each trip I take. Which will give me a reason to travel more! I was also thinking of scrap booking just the holidays, and birthdays. But I’ve already not taken pictures so that might be a good one to start next year. As for every day moments, that’s a cool idea, but my everyday life isn’t exciting enough to scrap book right now lol.

oh well, i haven’t even started the ones i was thinking about, but one of my very best friends in the whole world just turned 18 and we have been friends for 10 years now so i’ll make her a scrapbook with memories of us two together and pictures and stuff like that, i think it would be a pretty good present :) it’s actually part of it, i gave her the “big one” already, but we’re talking about scrapbooks here lol. so yeah, wish me luckkk

I want to scrapbook all the places that I have traveled. I don’t have pictures for all of them, so maybe I can be creative and still include pages for those missing pics. I guess I should take more pictures too
