Scrapbooking Global Blog Hop - Anything Goes / Stamping With Melva

Scrapbooking Global Blog Hop - Anything Goes

Wednesday 18 September 2024

I'm excited to be back to scrapbooking after many years and today I'm participating for the first time in the Scrapbooking Global Blog Hop. I can't wait to hop through all of the links to check out the amazing scrapbook layouts! I hope you'll do the same!

In late April I left for Mexico on the Stampin' Up! Incentive Trip (disclaimer - less than 1% of Demonstrators earn the Incentive Trip each year). I made the decision before I left that I would scrapbook my trip. It's been a labour of love revisiting the amazing experiences I shared with my sister and the other Demonstrators, guests and Stampin' Up! staff.

My scrapbook layout today is the story of the "Gifting Experience" received when we arrived at the Xcaret Mexico Resort. So much fun trying to make a choice at each table! The only thing that I didn't choose (it chose me) is my spirit animal - the porcupine! Not sure how I feel about that but he's so cute!

Check out the layout. I used Peach Pie cardstock along with the bright colours from the Full of Life Designer Series Paper. The Alphabet AlaMode dies are perfect for the title. And of course a shopping cart die cut from the Attention Shoppers Dies.

Now it's time to be inspired by all of the Projects in our Blog Hop!

I hope you have been inspired!
