At the beginning of the month, I had a reunion with my GOLD team: the girls I spent a year planning out voluntary project in Cambodia with, and the girls I spent an amazing three weeks with helping Cambodian Guiders.
It was great to catch up, and while we only see each other sporadically, we had a brilliant time catching up and it always feels as though no time has passed at all. I posted the photo here as part of One Photo and Twenty Words.
Another couple of envelopes make an appearance: I used one to hold the journalling and one that I 'addressed' with all our names. All the other elements are arranged on the diagonal.
I popped up the hand-cut title on little foam squares to make it stand out and then scattered a few embellishments here and there. A little peg, obviously, and a selection of stickers, arrows, clips and a little chipboard geotag. They were pretty cute!
Yep, I'm still not tired of little envelopes, my black squirly pen and project life cards. And the little photos I print at home using a Fujifilm Pivi Printer. I love the Instax-style Polaroidy look.

P.S. January is shooting by and I think I've now found my way of keeping all the emphemera from the month in an appropriately scrapbooky way. And thinking that I have a way of organising and saving it makes me more inclined to pick up business cards and bits and pieces when I'm out and about. I've got quite the stash!
Wow, I love this Kirsty! I really like the idea of using an envelope for journalling, and your hand-lettering is just amazing. Please teach me?!! A great layout :) x
ReplyDeleteA gorgeous page with all those layers.
ReplyDeleteP.S. I thought your photo was a mini instax!!
Another brilliant design! I love how the eyes travel from the photo to the title and journaling and vice versa! Hand cut titles always have a special place in my heart :)
