The Blog

Hello to all of you out there in Scrapblog land! Happy Friday!
Do you ever get the expectant feeling that something’s about to happen? Something big and life-changing? It’s almost a magical fairy dust-feeling in the air. It might have something to do with the fact that the weather is getting cooler and pressure changes make us feel slightly different when we just can’t put our finger on what’s changed. Or maybe it’s Halloween right around the corner, that magical night when nurses get to be doctors, little girls are transformed into princesses, and wallflowers get to be celebrities. Whatever it is, something is definitely brewing here at Scrapblog!
Now that I’ve got you pumped up and expecting greatness, here are my awesome Friday Five picks for the week:

Title: Silent Film
Author: emeralda
This has got to be one of the coolest school projects I’ve seen! I would have loved to have filmed a silent movie and am a bit disappointed that I didn’t think of it first.
I love the faces and the zany costumes, and of course I love the way that emerelda put it together nicely in a great Scrapblog for us! Check out the actual silent film when she puts it on Youtube.

Title: Melanie and Greg
Author: Lainee
This is just a really pretty wedding album with very nice photos. I love the way she superimposed photos of herself and the groom in the heart on page one. I was so inspired by the lacy sort of gothic/romantic feel of this Scrapblog (I might be hearing bells of my own soon!) and loved the way she combined elements with her photos to commemorate the dreamy feel of it all.

Title: Vincent Van Gogh in St. Remy
Author: SusieK
SusieK takes you on a tour of the beautiful St. Remy, France in this lush Scrapblog. Quaint passageways and gorgeous photos of the French countryside make this Scrapblog so enjoyable to look at, not to mention the beautiful layouts.

Title: Ghost Town
Author: Bavarian Gal
I was just enthralled by this very interesting Scrapblog about a Ghost Town in Arizona. Its fascinating how a town can be so successful at one time in history and then be quickly abandoned. I love the historical back story Bavarian Gal included in her Scrapblog and the intriguing photos she shares with us.

Title: Queen of the Night
Author: Chilypepah
The Queen of the Night flower is one of those mysteries of nature, a flower that blooms at night and is a pretty unremarkable and normal-looking plant otherwise. But what a beautiful bloom! Chilypepah captures the magic of this plant for us in her Scrapblog full of gorgeous photos.
