November 2016 Scrapbooking Workshop – Swan Lake

We used the Swan Lake paper suite in November, and it is really nice paper and versatile!  I'm sure this paper was designed for fall and Thanksgiving type pictures, but I was bound and determined to actually put pictures on my pages this month before the workshop.  I thought I had printed Thanksgiving pictures from last year, but when I went to scrapbook them, alas, I had not printed them yet.  However, I did have prints of our Virginia Beach trip this past summer, so I figured out a way to make them work.  This paper and embellishments were all about being thankful and feeling blessed, and I am so thankful for our family and the time we can all spend together, so those pictures worked out perfectly.  And I can truly say that this is versatile paper!  :-)

There is one piece of black patterned paper with seasonal fall words on it, but I just covered it with photos -- no problem!!

I did use flip flaps again – of course – I just love our flip flaps!  :-)  

I also used one of the new Pocket Plus page inserts (Design 1) on the "Love" page.  I think these Pocket Plus inserts are going to become a favorite of mine and rank up there with the Flip Flaps!  They are another great way of adding additional photos or journaling to a layout.


Let me know if you are interested in joining our workshops.  We typically meet every other month.  We will start out the new year in 2017 by meeting in February and then again in March.




This is the Pocket Plus Page insert:
