Altered Container Idea from Scrapbooking.com

Karen Maldonado writes:

create this shabby chic, vintage-look trinket container was the gorgeous designer papers and lace! I just adore creating handmade flowers, and incorporating a quilling technique and punches made this project especially fun. Using recyclable items, like this trinket container I had on hand, is a cheap way to decorate. I figured this would be a fabulous way to keep extra small items all together in one place, as well as a beautiful way to brighten up a room!

Scrapbooking the Five Senses

I borrowed this article from SpottedCanary.com, and I wanted to share it with you and pose it as a challenge :) I’m going to see if I can scrapbook my five senses in the coming weeks… why don’t you try to scrapbook yours??

Author: Karen Bulmahn


“Did you see that?” “Yum, that tastes good!” “Wow, what is that smell?” “Ouch, that hurts!” “What did you say?” All of these phrases allows for interpretation by one of the five senses. They are more than likely phrases used by many of us very often, if not daily. Have you ever tried to scrapbook strictly about one of your senses? It actually is very challenging, and it is amazing how much you can in the process.
