When I saw the color scheme, I knew it would fit with Easter photos. I pulled out Kevin's pics from this Easter and went to work. I'm on a collage kick right now and it's really a time saver (as far as cropping goes) and a money saving option, too.
I was able to scrap Kevin's Easter from coloring eggs, seeing what the Easter Bunny brought, attending church, and hunting for eggs at Grandma's all onto 4-12x12 pages. Then I went back in time a bit and pulled photos from '06. Here's one for Blake's album. I lifted a LO in CK's new Easier than Ever Scrapbooking 2 idea book. The original LO was by Kim Arnold.
On Easter '06, Blake wrote "love notes" to us and Kevin. I had to document how sweet that was for his album. I thought the large quote card that came with the kit was very appropriate. Kevin's Easter basket loot for '06: I also scrapped similar/duplicate shots for each of the boys on the following two layouts:
The paper placement for "Sweet" was inspired by a LO in CK's new Easier Than Ever Scrapbooking 2 idea book. The LO was by Nicole Samuels. These pics are from Easter '07.
I posted when Kevin got his glasses. Now I have the photos documented for his album, too.
I completed this challenge during the National Scrapbook Day crop at Personal Scrapper. Fellow member Lynette challenged us to make a 2-page LO about ourselves. I made a 2-page 8.5x11" LO using pics of me in the only wedding party of I was ever part of (except as the bride!). I can't believe these pics are almost 25 years old! They were taken about a month before I started 5th grade. Now, my own son will start 5th grade this fall. Is that crazy or what??
I loved the quote card that came with the kit and wanted to use it with a parent/child photo. This photo of Tom with the boys on Father's Day '07 worked with it.
To use of the rest of my scraps, I completed this page for Kevin's album about Kaitlin's high school graduation. I just added a couple AC Thicker fonts and scraps of ribbon I had leftover from old PS kits. Now I guess I'll patiently wait for the June kit to arrive!
Happy scrapping!
