I had so much fun with the dragon scene the other day... and then when my granddaughter said - "Should the egg be in a nest?" I had to make another scene with her brilliant idea!

I loved Norma's scene with Mr Pumpkinhead. And when I really looked at it, I realized there's still a ton of characters, papers, and elements from the Pumpkin Head kit that I still haven't used in any scenes - even though I've made so many! So using her idea, I created another Halloween scene...

I thought I was done making Halloween themed scenes... but then a photo of a raven popped up in my Facebook feed. He was sitting on a branch in front of some pumpkins. If you know me, once I see something that inspires me, I have to make a page.

I was inspired by the many scenes I've seen created with containers - bottles, jars, fishbowls. I wanted to try one for myself. It was a lot of fun making this first scene. I actually made 3 versions of it, but I think this is my favorite. It's quite easy to change up what's in the bottle...

Inspired again by another Harry Potter movie: Goblet of Fire. I tried to incorporate some of the elements from the Triwizard Tournament where Harry has to fight a dragon to retrieve a golden egg. Although in this scene, the young man might be a defender of dragons... I'm not sure. We'll see how...

I re-watched Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban (the 3rd movie in the series). When I saw the scene where Harry flies the hippogriff I thought - that would make a great scrap scene! This is what I created with a similar feel.

I saw a travel poster for Mallorca, Spain the other day. It pictured a lovely cathedral framed by palm trees, and a sphinx-like statue in the foreground. I wanted to create something similar using only scrapbook graphics already on hand, and this is what I came up with.

What I imagine seeing from my apartment window in Paris.

Next stop - Paris!

Thinking of travel today

Wanted to make a vintage-look travel poster.
