A Proud Moment...


As some of you may know I joined the design team for the scrapbook magazine in March this year. The first feature that you appear in is the 'introducing..' pages. For this you chose a few of your favorite layouts to appear in the article. 
Anyway, I went out shopping with my Mum one day and we went into WHSmiths. I was so happy to see one of my layouts on the front cover! So we made use of our phone cameras and took a few pictures! Several passes by wondered what we were doing, but my Mum (also a scrapper) took great pride in telling people! 
So when it came to my first commission for issue 66 of the scrapbook magazine I knew exactly which photos I wanted to use. So I based this layout on my 'proud moment'. 
I had recently brought some 'SMASH tabs', which I knew I wanted to try out on a layout. It was a great way to add extra photos and journalling to the page.

You can read more about this layout in the current issue of The Scrapbook Magazine (issue 66) in the Activity Pack section. 
I also have another layout in the current issue, which I shall share with you here soon!

Thanks for reading x

You should have arrived to me from Lou's blog here. If you haven't arrived here from the blog hop, then why not join in? It all starts here: http://scrappaperscissors.blogspot.co.uk

I have a layout to show you today which I hope will give you some summery inspiration. 
I have used Echo Park's 'so happy together' paper.  This collection of paper is bright and colorful, perfect for documenting those summer snaps and you can find it here on the Papermaze website. 

Here are some close up pictures...
