...seriously. I haven't fallen off the face of the earth...no, not quite, but summer has been pretty crazy, busy and fun. I guess one good thing about summer almost coming to an end is that I get to have some time for myself in the mornings again (read: more uninterrupted computer time) LOL!! But, conversely, I'm going to be missing the wacky kids in the mornings. We are all pretty excited for school, however, so that's a good thing. And, as far as scrapbooking mojo? what's that?!? 'nuff said. It's almost painful to put together a layout using templates...seriously, it's that bad. :(
I was able to scrapbook, however...
**note that the photos used in the above layouts are stock photos of the event. Full-size photos were available on the Rheinland-Pfalz Tag website. So, special huge thanks to the event website, since I didn't take my camera with me that day, and yet, I have photos to accompany the experience.**
On this second layout, I used one of Anna Aspnes' awesome templates. She really does have the best double-page multi-photo templates. I took so many photos (no exaggeration here) during our trip to the Netherlands in 2007. Here are the first two pages. A LOT more pages to go before I'm done with this trip.
I have so many un-scrapped photos from our trips. It doesn't help that I'm also so snap happy, and always think, "take photos now, delete later." The {beauty} of digital photography, right? With the busy summer, I've just added hundreds upon hundreds to those un-scrapped photos. Yikes, I know! The good thing is, just before aunt-il's visit several weeks ago, and also before our NYC trip, I managed to scrap all the photos from our trip to Metz, France back in 2005. That goes to show, I guess, how slow I have been, but at the same time, that trip to just that one city was scrapped in nine pages with over 100+ photos!! Finishing it *is* an accomplishment in my book. Despite thinking "what I was thinking taking so many photos," and then being ambitious enough to scrap each and every photo...I look at my finished pages, and I could not be any happier that I took that many photos. Pure happy memories. I love it. :)
Again, I used Anna's multi-photo (in review) templates on all nine pages...
...so yeah. It all comes down to that. Makes me so happy. Keep snapping. Keep scrapping. :)
