Today I finished the scrapbook page of Niguel that was inspired from This Post. What I have really loved about scrapbooking more is using up some of the things that have been just sitting around for far to long. Seriously I have some stuff that is soon to turn to antique. Vintage isn't something I find at flea markets, I can dig to the bottom of any jar in my craft room and find it. When I scrapbooked this past weekend I opened my tote and there like a time capsule was all the stuff from the last time I went to The Scrapbook Oasis with Steph. It was a mere two and a half years ago. Now it hasn't been that long since i've scrapbooked but obviously that long since I drug out the old tote! Sad, sad little tote!
Here's the page...
Swirls - I painted them yellow, they are at least 5 years old!
Yellow acrylic flower - I bought that little guy at a bead store 3 years ago.
Sticker sentiments - Probably a year and a half old.
Buttons - Now those really are antique and vintage they are from my grandma! I strictly use them on things that are for me personally. I love every single one of them!
Here's a close up of the flowers. Tomorrow i'm challenging myself to find the items i've been holding on to the longest and make something from it. Want to join me in the challenge? So glad I gave away that sticker binder!
Have a great day!
Awesome, totally awesome- what's left to say?

Such a beautiful layout! You'd never know the supplies were "vintage" b/c it looks so fresh and modern. Hope you're enjoying this gorgeous weather we're having!
