First off, two more pages I made earlier when I got home from work, both using elements from the Design House Digital’s Digital Scrapbooking Day Blog Hop. I really love this year’s kit, with the turquoise, yellow, and brown elements. You have to visit each of eleven designer’s blogs in order to collect all the parts of the kit but it’s well worth the time for such a great freebie. I could easily see myself making an entire book worth of pages using only that kit (and some other fonts and templates, perhaps).

This first layout was made using the template created by Tiffany of Simply Tiffany. I recolored the elements to these grayed colors. I didn’t know quite what I wanted to scrap so I picked two of the many, many photos I’ve taken of myself with knitwear on my head.

This layout is my own design and I must say I really like it. I want to learn to embrace the white space, to be okay with a single photo. I thought it was a perfect way to scrap our new place.

(The other supplies I used were just the 2peas fonts Grandpa (on the 1st layout) and scrapbook (on the 2nd layout).)

Ok, now for the knitting content. After making two-thirds of a far too large sweater during our Europe trip, I pulled it all out and restarted another sweater. It took me awhile to pick exactly what I wanted but I turned to a design I’d queued months before: the Spring Ribbed Cardigan.

I’ve already completed most the body and just have the ribbing at the bottom, the sleeves, and the ribbed edging/button bands/collar. Between the neutral color and the simple, classic design, I’m sure to wear it all the time when it’s done. I just hope it fits me!
