What's In A Title?

The blog title is my take on my favourite quote from Stephenie Meyer's Twilight novel, when Bella realises she is in love with vampire Edward. My version is slightly less impressive than that in the book but never the less true:


"About three things I was absolutely positive, first I was an obsessed crafter, second, there was a part of me - and I didn't know how potent that part might be, that thirsted for beautiful craft materials, dies, stamps, papers, cardstock etc, and third, I was unconditionally and irrevocably in love with scrapbooking and cardmaking"

Baby Album - Hello World

Our friends had their first baby in June this year and asked me if I would do a scrapbook page every month to record how much he changes and develops month by month.  I jumped at the chance as it gives me an opportunity to scrap something other than my daughter or my husband and I've never really had to scrap anything for boys or babies as my daughter was in her teens when I discovered scrapbooking, althought I have done a couple of layouts of some of her baby photos.

For the first page in the album I used these papers and accessories which have been hanging around in my craft room for a long time so it's nice to have used some of them at last.  I think they are possibly Bo Bunny's Ad Hoc range but I'm not sure. The mount behind the photo is hiding a slide out tag so that the proud parents can journal their thoughts and feelings about his arrival into the world.   The photo is of JR at just 37 minutes old, bless, he looks so worldly wise already.
