DYL: Far East Fusion by Diane, ADB Designs


I have always loved Asian art and fashion. The book The Good Earth by Pearl S. Buck, which I read as a teenager, really affected me. I have never had the good fortune to travel to Asia but other in my family have and so this collection came into being to help with scrapping their photos.

#205 Question/Scrapbooking Prompt(s)

  • Scrap a page about a visit to Asia or gifts from.
  • Scrap a page about how Asia has touches your life ... a book you read, a movie you watched, and internalized ...

These prompts are ideas to help you get started. I also have a gift for you to help speed your page completion. With this stunning quick page (contributed by my amazing Creative Team Member. Kabra) you can finish a page quickly. 

Be sure to keep scrolling for information about additional beautiful gifts from this collection!

I hope you find inspiration from the layouts of my awesome Creative Team. Here are their layouts along with the previews from the collection.
























I am so pleased when I see layouts created with my collections.  I would LOVE to have you share them with me via one or both of my challenge threads in the forum.

Check my two forum challenges for more gifts from this collection (and others)! 

Documenting Your Life Challenge (available Friday, March 21)


AND ... in my forum challenge The Vintage Romantic (available the first of every month & includes gifts from all recent collections)

HAPPY SCRAPPING!

Free Weekly Kit by Featured Designer: Scrapbookcrazy Creations

 

Let’s welcome Scrapbookcrazy Creations as this week’s Featured Designer!

Are you a morning person or a night owl?

I am not a morning person, it takes me ages to be able to function in the morning. At night I have the most energy and focus and when I get involved in something I could stay awake all night.


Where do you call home?

I live on the Mornington Peninsula in Victoria Australia. We have lived here for 16 years but I have been holidaying here since I was 2 years old. It is so nice going to sleep with the sound of the waves and to hear fog horns during Winter. You guessed it I live at the beach and have always been with 2 blocks of the beach.


Aside from the necessities, what one thing could you not go a day without?

I could not go a day without nice smooth toilet paper and my Maconna morning coffee.


If you could own ANY animal as a pet, what would it be?

I would love to own either an elephant or a Giraffe. However, visiting them at the zoo is the next best thing. One day I hope to them in their natural environment.


What is your biggest fear?

My biggest fear is snakes. I loath them, just a picture of one makes my flesh crawl and my heart pound.



To finish off we would love to share some of Scrapbookcrazy Creations’ favorite layouts:

Layout from Gnomes Go Glamping

Layout from Ordinary Folks

Layout from Authentic
