Scrapaholix - Fragments

It's been longer than I had planned but I've made it none the less so I won't be too hard on myself. Scrapaholix as I mentioned in my last post took place on the 9th and was fab. This month we got to have a play with Ranger's Fragments and they have certainly won my seal of approval. The only problem now is trying to find a supplierthat has them in stock.

As well as my layout which you can see below we also made a mini album from a paper bag. The papers this month were travel inspired which worked really well with my very poor photos (taken on a disposable) from a holiday to Portugal.

Now I know paper bag albums have been around for ages and that there are some die hard scrapbookers out there that wouldn't be caught dead making them, but I like them. There a great way to make a quick book, 6 pages plus the front and the back, with a couple of pockets to stash things away. I think you'll agree they can be very, very cool.

Nearly all of the embellishments came from the fab Travelogue papers. The tab was cut out on the Quickutz and I used some groovy black and white polka dot ribbon for my tags. As per usual for me everything was inked, if it's not screwed down, it's likely to get inked.

As I said already my photos weren't the best so a small book really helps to get the most out of them. It also means there's somewhere to put your plane tags, tickets and other bits and bobs.

Here is this months stamp in all it's glory, this one is really working hard for me I have absolutely loads of uses for it. You can't really see that there are Fragments on these pages, but they really add dimension.

We're going to squeeze in 2 more kits before Christmas, at the end of the month we're making a Christmas gift and then in December we'll be dry embossing. Loads of fun.

I'm hoping to put up last weeks cards in a little while.
