Usually when one of my grandkids spends the week here I make a small photo book for them. Since A just completed her first full size scrapbook I decided to make up a couple of pages with my fave photos. After we dropped her off at the mall (where her mother and sister were waiting) my bff and I headed to Archiver's scrapbooking store. We had several coupons to use. One of them was for a free 12X12" die cut, the green layout page below is what I chose. I'm not sure why some photos were not large enough for the cut outs so I used pink to back them with.....and of course behind the JUNE 2013. I embellished it with a few buttons and it's done!
I really like this idea and may purchase more when I get there. It's a good thing I live 50 miles away and seldom get there.
On this 2nd page I wrote a brief description of the week and attached some photos with Washi tape.
On the 3rd page I just added a few photos and a caption or 2.
I have LOTS more photos and A can choose the ones she wants to use on her own pages. I hope now that she's actually created several pages she'll want to keep it up.
Oh yeah, I almost forgot we ate at our favorite mexican restaurant in Appleton before we came home.
Tonight we are off to hubby's niece's wedding. To be honest, I'd prefer to stay home....this is my first full day without grandkids and I'd like to relish ALL DAY & NIGHT. Once I get out I will probably enjoy seeing people I haven't seen in a long time.
Happy Weekend to one and all....thanks for stopping by.
Very cute scrapbook pages. Hard to stay away from the scrapbook stores, they're so addictive.
