And here’s my Sale-a-Bration project! I’m not much of a scrapbooker, but I thought it was about time I challenged myself, and so I set about designing a 12′ x 12″ scrapbook page! Applegarth was a gorgeous mid to late Victorian house in which my grandparents and my mum lived towards the end of the Second World War, in Whitstable, Kent, England.
Stamp sets: Good Neighbours, Jumbo Outline Alphabet

A beautiful scrap page – that set works so well with you photos
What a great layout. You must have got cramps in your hand cutting out all those houses, but they are very effective.
That is one super cool page
Your challenge to yourself was successful and it’s a beautiful layout! Gave me an idea of what to do for a similar page for my mother-in-law’s home in the UK, they were there when the blitz was on!
Cathy, this is a beautiful page. The stamps look as if they were created for this page. Kris

Great page – the Good Neighbours set really fits perfectly with it! Thanks for sharing. Sharlene
Love your scrap page. The little houses from Good Neighbors match the photos beautifully.
Cathy – for a card maker, you’re not a bad scrapbooker!!! Love it!! And it’s in Whitstable…….. I still have family there that have lived there for donkeys years, probably even the time your mum was there. Small world, eh? Whitstable always holds a special memory for me, apart from family, it was the very first place that I saw a double rainbow and also the first place I was stung by a bee!!
Great work Cathy, as usual!!
Love this page Cathy. Always admiring your talent.
Finally – a scrapbook page. Thank you for sharing this lovely design. I’ve added your blog to my “favourites” so please keep the pages coming.
Love this page – you have done very well with your challenge!
What a great way to use the houses. Your scrapbook page is wonderful and the combination of paper, photos and stamps is really very good. What a great way to share your families memories with others.
Hi Pat, Unfortunately, the dear old house is long gone – it was just a shell in 1976 when mum and I went past there. My grandies lived there from the late war years until about 1960 -would love to have that house now! This is really my first “proper” attempt at scrapbooking a 12×12 page, I usually stick to 6×6’s! Can’t wait to do another page now!
Thanks, Karen – looks like I had better keep scrappin’ then! Thanks for visiting!
That’s such a great idea to use for a scrap page!
Fantastic layout! I love how you have used that stamp set.
Cute pages. Thanks for sharing!
What a superb layout! Love it!
Lovely pages!!
This is a GREAT scrapbook page.
You did awesome
Thanks for the lovely inspiration!
love the scrapbook page, inspirational.
Wow, this is beautiful!
Del Sherry
I love this scrapbook page. The layout is very cute and lends itself to the shape and style of photos. And those little house stamps just add the perfect finish. It’s almost like the set was made just to go with the house photos. Very nice.
Terrific layout – love the colours.
love this look – great job!
I love these photos….If I ever got rich I’d love to buy an old fashioned house….you’ve done a great job showing it off
