First layouts for Shimelle's No Place Like Home project.



Only 2 weeks into the class before I manage to do any work for it! These are actually quite dull layouts - so I am not particularly pleased with them - but at least I have made a start. There is so much in the photos and the journalling I did not want to use PP all over - so did some free hand journalling on to the plain card stock to jazz it up a  bit. Its a bit plain in just white though - would have like to have 
added some colour - but am still waiting for the 
medium Galaxy marker pens to come back in stock on QVC. 
These apparently work very well on dark card. 
My Sharpie pens don't - I have tried!

The journalling is from the prompts that she gave us and introduces our home-town and home and I have also included a definition of home on the second big house. This DLO shows our house and Cal-de-sac and the view from our windows. I made the little and big houses from my Cricut - see it is starting to be used now

The next project is to make a mini book featuring doors. I have never made a mini book and don't have a BIA - but do have a cropodile and book rings so that is no excuse - but think I may use a 8x8" album I have lying about
