Multi Photo Scrapbooking with Leonie

Hey, welcome to the Scrapping Clearly blog Leonie with you today, sharing a multi-photo page.
I often find that I scrap multiple photos to a page. 
What about you? Are you a one photo per page scrapper or do you like multiphoto spreads?

We take so many photos these days and I always find it hard trying to narrow them down to just one particular picture to scrapbook per page so I often choose 2 or 3 of my favourites.  I also tend to size them down to 3 x4" or smaller so that they don't overcrowd the page.  Making them smaller also leaves rooms for all the pretty bits we like to add in the way of paper and embellishments while still leaving some white space.

The multiphoto page I'm sharing today celebrates the Endless Summer collection by Cocoa Vanilla Studio. I created a page with this collection last month which you can see HERE.  I love the mint green and soft peach colours in this collection.
I teamed them up with a Kraft cardstock background to create this page.

A dry paint brush was used to lightly swipe some paint colour across the Kraft cardstock using Dina Wakley Acrylic paints.
I then stamped circles using the 49 And Market Stitched circles and doodled around the circles with a white gel pen. 

Alphabet and Accessory stickers complement the papers I have used to matt my strip of photos.
I find a strip of photos is a great way to document sequential pictures like these ones of my boys throwing a frisby.  Helps to tell the story.
Enamel dots and shapes also from the Endless Summer collection add a little extra decoration to my page. 

Thanks for stopping by the Scrapping Clearly blog today.
Happy crafting

Wishing on an Endless Summer by Leonie

Hello Scrapping Clearly followers, Leonie with you this Monday.  I hope all the Mums out there had a special day yesterday. I spent the afternoon with my Mum and sisters and our families.  It's so special to take an afternoon out of our day to day lives and spend some down time with loved ones and I feel blessed to be able to do this with my family. 

Todays scrapbooking page is using the Endless Summer range from Cocoa Vanilla Studio.

I created this page from a sketch at recent Cocoa Vanilla Studio retreat I was on.

By the way....

Keep your eyes peeled in the Scrapping Clearly Store for the brand new CVS collection 

'Boys Rule'.

I may have got a sneak peak and play with it and it's seriously a fabulous boy collection.

Coming to the Scrapping Clearly Store this month!

Oh how I wish we could have an endless summer! We've just had our first cold weekend brrrrr.... it made me long for those summer days we spent at the beach just a few months ago. 

Sunset walks on the beach and ice-cream! This was the perfect paper collection to use for those 

summer memories.  

I fussy cut some of the Hibiscus flowers from Aloha Sunshine paper and used the Sun Bleached,

Blue Skies, and Coastal Chill papers to layer under my three photo's.  I also used the This & That cut-apart paper for those sweet ice creams.

I also added a few stickers from the sticker sheet to the fussy cut clusters of flowers.

The background was created with Distress Inks and Distress Oxides in Worn Lipstick,  Rusty Hinge and Dried Marigold.  I also stamped with various background texture stamps in the same ink colours. 

Thanks for stopping by the Scrapping Clearly blog today, I hope this page has brought some warm inspiration to you. 

Cheers from Leonie Neal-Dawson
