More Scrapblocks™

I have been so excited about this project!!!! I created it quickly in less than one evening and can't wait to add all the details, promising it to be a keepsake for years.

Remember the School Year:


I fell instantly in love with the blank books of black chipboard (This is called Abby's Blackboard Album) by Cosmo Cricket. My first thought when I saw it was that it reminded me of a chalkboard! The idea stuck in my head... so I created this remembrance of the school year for my kids. I plan to add their photos, pictures of the awards assemblies, spelling bee and family fun day. It will be a fantastic treasure!

I also used the Writing Paper Scrapblocks™ to carry the theme. Each page was stamped with Cotton White Stazon ink and the Writing Paper lines so I can journal and add my own details about the photos and mementos. Absolutely perfect!

I hope you've had a great weekend!
Hugs,
Lisa

    What a great idea! I am new to this parenting thing -- I brought my 15 year old great niece to live with me at the beginning of this school year. I have never been a scrapbooker but as I viewed this book, I though that I could make her something like this and let her choose what pictures she might use to fill it up. Hmm, I will have to think on this -- but I guess I can't wait too long or we will be looking at sophomore pictures!

    What a great memento this will make! The bright colours look fabulous with the black chipboard and the lines just finish it all off nicely - great job!
