A Wedding Album









My daughter's best friend is getting married in a few weeks. Quite awhile ago, I did their wedding invites for them so I thought it would be fun to give them a matching album. This is CTMH 9x9 accordion album. The paper is from C**** M*** (I don't usually buy their paper but thought this was very pretty), stamp sets and embellishments Close To My Heart.

Sorry for the blurriness..and the colour is actually black & white with some green ribbon. Not sure what's going on with that. I have to label what size pics go where but I'm excited its finished in time.

Honestly the last ones...for awhile!



I've been very busy finishing up a few projects and I will post them shortly! But I'm going to put up two more layouts featuring my newest little....and then in about 6 months I'm going to post lots more layouts featuring another newest little!!! My daughter is expecting in January and we are so excited!! I really wish my dsd (darling step daughter) and dd (darling daughter) lived closer but scrapbooking layout after layout will have to do between cuddle times! Enjoy!

Halfway there!!!


This is one of those layouts that are of the 'whew, finally finished' variety! All CTMH product; some may even be retired!



The above two layouts use contraband products...except for CTMH Buttons!



Love how this turned out. Used Veranda paper, with Authentic stamp set and flowers created by my friend Roz!! Layout 'scraplifted' from Shawnee Elliott.



This is my new niece...well, not so new now but she was a few months old when these pictures were taken. Used Topstitch Paper Pack with the layout idea from Kimberley Smith.

Back from Convention! Wow!!! My mind is still exhausted from taking it all in! But Washington, DC is beautiful and I would recommend anyone/everyone try to spend some time there! Roz and I had so much fun being tourists for a few days. We came away with some unforgettable moments!

These layouts make it 60. Which means I am halfway to fulfilling my goal of 120 layouts this year. Which also means I need to get my butt in gear. My projects are all lined up in my head but they aren't doing any good there!!

The rest of S.Africa









I am at a complete loss as to why these pics are all on the side!! Sorry, Ladies!
I've been very busy getting more of my scrapbook area organized, my England trip layouts finished, and a bunch of scrapbook pages into the actual scrapbooks! And of course getting ready for Convention...in 6 days!! I'm getting excited! Watch for layouts of Washington sometime in the future!!

South Africa layouts - finally!!






I love a challenge!!! And this challenge has been fantastic! My husband travels for his business so on the rare occasion I get to go with him. Six years ago, I went to South Africa with him for the trip of a lifetime! It was such a wonderful trip full of adventures I never thought I would have the opportunity to have....5:30 a.m. safaris, experiencing the exotic flea markets, feeding elephants - memories to last a lifetime. And finally, scrapbooked! Here are a few of the pages I completed while I was in Winnipeg at a scrapbooking weekend with my friend Roz! I'm not sure why some of the layouts are sideways!

45 layouts completed & posted! 75 to go...better get busier!!!
