International Scrapbooking Party with Clare and Cathy - Week 1




Hi Everyone! We hope you've been enjoying a crafty week. Some of you may know that Monday was the start of International Craft month and today we're celebrating International Scrapbooking Day. I'm really excited to be joining up with the fabulously talented Graphic45 UK Ambassador Clare Charvill and together we are launching a scrapbooking party for you to take part in too.

Over the next three weeks we'll be sharing a scrapbook sketch with you on our blogs and FB pages and asking you to join in the party by creating your own scrapbook page following the sketch and theme of the week. As we're both Graphic45 addicts we chose papers from the World's Fair collection for our first double page layout. We took a page each with Clare's layout on the left side and mine on the right, rotating the sketch 180 degrees, and worked with different sized papers and colors to create our double page layout that captures the memory of afternoon tea together at Harrods, London, England last summer.

Here's our page pics:


We'd love you to join in the party too and create a lovely layout following the sketch above.

This week's theme is "Friends".

The rules are pretty simple:

Choose your colors, use any papers, give your layout a title and a date, take a picture and upload it via the link below to share your page with us all. Add the country you're from in the description to make this a truly International party too.

We'll be sharing two more sketches and new themes with you on Friday March 11th and Friday March 18th - so more fun to come!

Random.org will choose a weekly winner on Clare's blog and also announced here on my blog. The weekly winner will receive a tutorial from Clare at MyCreativeSpirit and a tutorial of your choice from my SoMuchScrap Etsy shop. Our three weekly winners will go into a final draw. The overall winner will receive a selection of goodies from the Mycreativespirit website and 3 tutorials of your choice from my Etsy shop.

Here's the link to upload your pics and play along:


Happy scrapbooking everyone! We're looking forward to seeing your pages :-) Cathy and Clare
