Danube Waltz Memory Box and Walk Thru Video

The latest papercrafting project I have been working on it this Memory Box project. This project was a recent challenge over at Your Book of Memories. I decided to use this project as a way to do some extra journaling from our 2025 Danube River trip along with showcase some of the memorabilia we saved. I loved the way this worked out. 

I decided to use 1 of the elements in the memory box for each city we visited on the trip. I used the same paper collection for this as I have been using for the scrapbook from the trip. I used the same Cricut font for the city titles and did print and cut on the Cricut for the journaling.

You can see the elements of the memory box in the following pictures. I have also included a walk thru video at the end of this post.

You can see my walkthru of the memory box in this video from my YouTube Channel.

I hope you like this paper crafting project. Thanks for stopping by!

Czech Resistance During WWII

The next excursion we went on during our time in Prague was Czech Resistance During WWII. We visited several locations in Prague were significant events during WWII took place. It was great to learn more of the history of this beautiful city.

The inspiration started from a Pinterest sketch and then I changed it up to work with the photos I was using. The title and hexagons were cut on my Cricut. I added some faux-stitching on a few of the hexagons for visual interest.

World Clock Layout

One of the highlights during our Panoramic Prague Excursion was seeing the World Clock in Old Town Square. The clock is mounted on the southern wall of the city's Old Town Hall. The clock mechanism has three main components – the astronomical dial, representing the position of the Sun and Moon in the sky and displaying various astronomical details; statues of various Catholic saints stand on either side of the clock; "The Walk of the Apostles", an hourly show of moving Apostle figures and other sculptures, notably a figure of a skeleton that represents Death, striking the time; and a calendar dial with medallions representing the months. 

The inspiration for this layout came from this sketch I found on Pinterest.

I stayed close to the sketch for this layout. I did add a few extra banner strips to the left large banner for visual interest. I also used the circle element for my journal strips. I cut the title on my Cricut.

Charles Bridge Layout

During our Prague by Night Excursion we got to see a bit of the Charles Bridge - it was so beautiful all lit up! During out Panoramic Prague Excursion we got to see the bridge during the day and closeup. It was such a beautiful pedestrian bridge to walk over. It took us over the Vltava River. Lots of statues - too many to remember the names of. One statue we really liked was the one of John of Nepomuk. 

The inspiration for this layout came from this sketch from Sketch N Scrap I found on Pinterest.

I kept pretty close to the sketch with this layout. I only added some strips for journaling and some banners for embellishments. I also added some faux-stitching using a black pen and ruler. The title was cut using my Cricut and in the same font I have been using for the layouts in this album.

Strahov Abbey Layout

I am trying to be very conscious of how I am scrapbooking our Danube trip in terms of what I scrapbook from each city we visited along with the excursions we took. I have decided to do a 2-page layout for each city and/or excursion and then select 1 or 2 key places from these to do a 1-page layout for. When we did the Prague by Night excursion I really enjoyed the stop at Strahov Abbey and the views from there. This stop was at the beginning of the excursion so it wasn't quite dark yet but we enjoyed the views along with a beer tasting there!

The inspiration for this layout came from this sketch from Even More Scrapping I found on Pinterest.

I kept to the sketch pretty closely with this layout. My only change was to add some faux-stitching around the edges of the base page using a white gel pen and ruler. The title was cut on my Cricut using the font I have chosen for this album. The enamel dots for embellishment came from my stash.
