Spring has definitely sprung downunder where I live, the blossom is out and it’s so pretty.  Hi, it’s Carol here (carollee in the scrapping world).  After being outside for a little bit, I’m now in here with a cuppa by my side and I’ve been enjoying having a trip around the galleries, just loving what I’ve seen so here’s my picks.

Departure by svanderhaegen

Well I feel like I may be looking at the inside of a galactic passport here for travels into outerspace.  What a mystical page.  That night sky with the sprinkling of stars, the stamped book, and trip elements, it’s such a delightful photoless page.  Collect adventures not things – no truer words were spoken.

 

September Memories by snojewel

Loving that large background photograph which really sets the scene here.  What a memory the artist has created for the children here to look back on.   Taking the colour from the corn, the September stands out nicely and the elements tucked in and around the page and photographs fill in gaps just nicely.  I bet the children love this page.

 

You got this by ErinR

Oh darling girl, what precious journalling.  The start of a school year can be tough for the littlies.  Beautiful photograph, almost of trepidation heading off to school with her Miss Kitty bag.  Bless.  Loving the B&W photograph amongst the gentle colour pallete of blues and lilacs.  And that title is ringing out YOU GOT THIS.  Thinking all the good thoughts for her.

 

A.Scrap a photoless page by Loretta Habig

I really enjoyed reading the journalling here, I don’t know if this is what it is planned for, but this would be a great opening page for a travel album.  It sets the scene with the map, what a trip!  The $’s spent sure do add up, but it’s all part of the adventure.   I also like the font used, it’s like it’s been written in the artist’s hand.  Fantastic trip and page.

 

But First Coffee by sucali

A wonderfuly stark graphic page, could be an advertisement in a glossy magazine.  Loving all that white space all around the centric design.  A great mix of type, handwritten caps and a signature Coffee.  Wonderful.

You Have My Heart by myssp

Darling photograph, gorgeous shades of pinks and greens, and so tactile.  Great shadow work.  Plus a lovely triangle created – from the photo to cluster at the top, then down to the title of the page.  Really really well thought out page.

Well that’s it from me, off to schedule this for the late afternoon for the northern hemisphere, for when I’ll just be getting up in your tomorrow, crazy upside down world we live in.    If you’ve enjoyed the pages that I’ve chosen, please do go and click on the page title/artist and leave a comment or two for these fantastic artists.

Bye for now and keep scrapping, Carol.
