 Jenny has decided that, as I've done digital scrapbooking, and because I actually love the look of scrapbooks, I'm the one who's going to be making a real scrapbook of our holiday!  We've got a beautiful scrapbook, in black fabric with absolutely no cover embellishments at all except for a big button and a tape to close it with  We've also acquired a load of scrapbook papers that I had to choose, and which seemed appropriate to the holiday  Our best buy for it, I reckon, was a "Hot off the Press" Finished In A Flash great outdoors pack, which has great papers and some wonderful embellishments  We only paid £7.99 too!  The greatest expense is likely to be printing out the photos!  While my new printer is absolutely superb, the cartridges are very "ouch" expensive  It's going to take me a while to get things straight in my mind, let alone actually start putting the pages together Hopefully, though, I'll soon be sharing some pages with you all  Steve

Good idea Jenny, keep Steve busy. Steve why not do a page or two following the sketch on PCU, you've got until the end of the month to enter and there is always a prize! I find the sketches quite useful and you don't need to follow exactly. |

Looks like you are going to be pretty busy Steve  I haven't done any digital scrapbooking for ages, I just couldn't seem to make the images I wanted especially embellishments but I haven't given up hope of doing more. Some digital scrapbookers tend to do hybrids I think that's the name where they use digital and paper embellishments together sort of combine the two together which looks nice so you could try that. On Monday I bought myself two small Daler and Rowney art journals and yesterday I painted them both with gesso both front and back covers so I could paint and embellish them before using, I'm a bit like you at the moment wondering what to do next, I know I have to decide on a design now but can't think of anything at the moment, I need to give the old grey matter a good kick start to get me going Eileen Edited by Willow, Jul 24 2009, 09:37 AM.

Jo, I'm very slowly sorting things out in my head, but I'm not sure I'll be quick enough for PCU I probably won't actually get anywhere until next month Eileen, Jenny bought me a little Winsor & Newton "field set" in Lancaster but with the weather, I never got a chance to use it I thought about digital scrapbooking, but we got so many goodies that it would be a waste to not use them Steve
