Busy Scrappin'

I have got my groove on here lately with the scrapbookin'! Been turnin' 'em out fairly quickly, at least quicker than I have in months!! :D lol

~~~~~~

The first one I did in duplicate...meaning I did the exact same design for both boys. I figured why waste time trying to create two different LOs of the same occasion, having the exact same pictures. It was MUCH easier!

I always try to do a page for our veggie garden, at least a couple of pictures, and

a list of what we grew....

I think the pictures and the title says it all....

Ben finally trying his bike without the training wheels....

And I finally got around to all those fun pictures I took at the Spring Carnival. If you notice that Ben isn't smiling in the pictures, he wasn't feeling too well that day. It was actually the beginning of a month of illness for 3 of us.

Josh's version....I saw this basic LO in my new Creating Keepsakes magazine (Sept. issue), except I flipped it, and added extra photos.

A simple page for my Mother's Day. (We ate at my favorite Italian restaurant, Carrabba's.)

(And I got a couple of new scrapbook tools. Yay! And lots of hugs and kisses.)

I did this one this morning. It was fun. I love the contrast of color against the black.

And I stretched myself on this one...I don't usually do things on an angle...I like things to line up straight. And I had to improvise with the title...the "t's" are actually "f's" with the tops cut off, the "r" was a "n," and the "E" is, of course, a backwards "3."

I finished this one this evening. It is a blatant lift of one from a blog I follow ( http://gretchenmac.blogspot.com/2010_05_01_archive.html) Same paper, same orientation. I just thought it "rocked!" I added some journaling and a title, where hers had none.

(I hope that linked worked. I'm not too good at doing those kind of things! ;P)

So, that's it. I am about to move on to Ben's graduation. Just in time for the beginning of school.

See, I told you I was running a season behind!

And I still have all the summer photos to edit and print...

before I can even think of scrappin' them!!

They'll get done....eventually.

Thanks for stoppin' by and lookin'.

Have a great weekend.
