Practical Scrappers April Blog Hop - Use Our Stash


Hello friends!  You should have arrived here from the talented Audrey Yeager, but if not you can start back at the top of the list which is the Practical Scrappers blog.

Lee-Anne Thornton http://lee-annelovethejourney.blogspot.com YOU ARE HERE
Today we are scrapping our stash and scrapbookers always have some goodies that haven't been used so now it's the perfect time to pull out your stash and create something.  For some inspiration, come hop along.  

I have created a layout on my Hawaii cruise that I went on in November 2012 with about 100 other obsessed scrapbookers and photographers.  What an experience!  We went to four islands.  This photo was at Waikiki Beach in Honolulu, Hawaii.  I used the Lucy's Crab Shack Collection of papers by Bazzill Basics Paper, my Silhouette Cameo to cut the tags, title and wave border and my ancient sewing machine.  I finally finished it off with some enamel dots, some fussy cut flowers and some wood embellishments.  







I was inspired by a sketch by Susan Stringfellow.

Thanks for stopping by and now it's time to be inspired by another talented scrapper, Suzanna Lee.

Have a creative day!
