I used some pages from an old book to make the flowers, I have bought quite a few old books from charity shops, choosing books using different fonts and paper so I have something to suit all styles of page, a very cheap way to make you own flowers!
As we are on the subject of money saving how about using gardeners twine, I seem to use it on most of my pages at the moment, it is great for adding that extra little detail. I picked mine up from an auction site for a couple of pounds.
I decided to have a tidy up today and sorted out the top of my wardrobe and found a whole box of photos that I didn't even know I had! I was so chuffed, there was some gorgeous photos of the girls when they were little, lots more for me to get scanning and scrapping! I dread to think how many hours I have spent scanning negatives so far, all in a good cause though.

I bought a book from a charity table for 20p a good few years ago for scrapbooking, and I think it's safe to say it's been one of my best craft investments!! I'm a big fan of twine too, but I've been decorating my house with it, not my pages lol! Gorgeous pages Rachael xxx
