Five scrapbooking layouts - many wonderful crative moments

 

Hi and happy new week!

Today I wanted to share with you a couple of 12" scrapbook pages I have made recently. Not all of them are that special, but they all served the purpose very well: Creating the layouts provided me moments to chill out, to enjoy the creative flow, and to play with beautiful colours, pattered papers and lovely embellishments. Wonderful!


I also used large cut files by Paige Taylor Evans. So fun to work with!
 



 Also some watercolours and sweet pastel tones...


 

Some more rose colours and fuzzy-cut butterflies (supplies from Hit Kit Club set)


For balancing the pink cuteness I needed also some more rough patterns and darker colours (paper a Mima Molina /ABstudion design):



The pages are all very different but all yet very 'me'. True 'happy moment projects'!

Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi is a Hungarian-American psychologist, who recognised and named the psychological concept of  'flow', a highly focused mental state conducive to productivity. He described flow as "being completely involved in an activity for its own sake. The ego falls away. Time flies. Every action, movement, and thought follows inevitably from the previous one, like playing jazz. Your whole being is involved, and you're using your skills to the utmost."

I know exactly what he's talking about. This is what papercrafting means to me.

 

Thanks for stopping by in my blog,
