Now that spring is well underway, it’s time to scrap those changes! Here’s the challenge:

Metamorphasis – scrap a life-changing event that’s affected you. How
has it changed you as a person?

This was quite a difficult challenge for me as really I don’t think that many life changing moments have happened to me!!

I decided to document how crafting has changed my life. I started to craft when I become ill as something to do to fill the long days and it’s really helped me to get through it. It’s very therapeutic for me and something that doesn’t take that much energy. It’s helped me make friends, make some money, be able to work for charity, I’ve made my own blog and I got on a design team which I’m really proud of!! They are small things but they have all helped me a lot. I love crafting so much I don’t know what I would do without it!

This layout turned out quite differently to how I saw it in my mind. I felt I needed to put a lot of journaling on it so I worked around that really! I would love to see what you came up with!

This type of challenge is definitely right up my street! My favourite part of scrapbooking is being able to tell the stories connected to my photos and express the emotions I feel about whatever event I am focusing upon. Being asked to scrap a life-changing event that’s affected you gave me the ideal opportunity to create a page about becoming a Mum, how I felt at the time and how it changed me as a person.
I used one of the tiny photos taken in the hospital the morning after my son was born and created a frame to draw attention to this part of the page. This page was one of those pages that really was a joy to create from beginning to end and I can’t bring myself to put it away in an album just yet!

I really loved to do this one as it took me a lot to think about which picture and which moment Id talk about. Pregnancy would be too obvious for me….

So i took this picture taken just a a few minutes after my tatoo healed and talked about this moment in my life and how it transformed me.

Growing is not easy on any one and has not been on me either – sometimes we learn the toughest way.

So that’s what i talk about in the journaling. Now I wanna see what you girls have prepared for this one too!

I really wrestled with this topic. Currently, I am going through a really stressful time in my marriage and I totally thought that I would do a layout on my feelings about how my husband’s and I’s relationship has changed throughout our 7 years of marriage. But then something happened and I decided that for right now, I’m taking the easy road for this scrap challenge. I did a page about my youngest daughter. This topic is easy to see, easy to journal about, and is a simple easy layout that anyone can do. I masked with a tag some Glimmer Mist, cut out a couple pieces of white cardstock to mat the pictures with, and then I added the title followed by the journaling. I hope in the near future to tackle the challenge of the tougher “Metamorphosis” topic with a layout about my changing marriage. I can’t wait to see your takes on this challenge.
