Pics are supposed to be the other way around. Anyhow, its a two page layout with the baby page before the shower page.

Last of the family pics for now

I think this is the last of these layouts for a while.

Being Silly

Another layout of college kids goofing off.

Cutie Pie

I just love the pics of my girls when they are younger.

This is my youngest (who is now 19) .... how sweet she is.

Love to Laugh

Not sure if you can see the letters too well. They say, I love to laugh.

Pic of daughter, not sure how old she is.

A reason to write such stuff on the back.

First friends

First friends... another page from that baby book that fell apart.

Precious girl

Isn't she beautiful! More of the proofs from the session when she was almost 3.

Toys and fun

Pic of my oldest daughter and some of her toys. The rocking chair was given her by her Aunt T. A bear made by my Aunt M is also in there.

fun with phones

First time I stencilled on a layout --at least I think. After doing all that I realized there is only one pic with a phone, but oh well.

Doggie

The dog was made by the nurses at the hospital where my oldest daughter was born.

I thought it was so cute.

Cute Little Angel

Picture of my middle daughter. She's just darling.

Grade 3

Grade 3 layout.

I wasn't terribly inspired, but came up with this.

Meeting again

Same pic, slightly different layout. For 2nd daughter's scrapbook.

2 or 3 years

This is a page from a baby book. It fell apart, so I'm putting parts of it in my daughter's scrapbook.

This is the page about things they do at 2 or 3 years of age

Same pics, different layout

You've seen these pics before, this one is for my 3rd daughter's album.

My old elementary school

This one is of my 4th grade class. Since you can see the year in the layout, I guess you know I'm not as young as I used to be.

Baby pics

This is one of my all-time favorite pics of my youngest daughter. I'm not sure how old she is, I'm thinking about 6 months old.

cats and cousins

Here is a layout of my youngest daughter and cats, and one of her and her cousin.

The cat was made on my cricut.

Angel girl

I have to admit that I really like this layout. Remember I'm a newbie. So far, I have found that I like simple layouts.

This is my oldest daughter, more proofs from her photo session. I am not sure how old she is, but I think she's somewhere around 2.

Christmas- embellished

I have this same layout on the page below. In that picture, it isn't embellished. I did a little embellishing on it.

3 Daughters

Here is one with my 3 daughters. You will see several different layouts with this picture. I used snapfish and obtained smaller copies of this (and other) pic. That way, all 3 girls can have the picture in their album.

I'm making each an album. Someday, I'll get copies of my favorite pictures and make myself an album.

A few thoughts on journaling

I do mean a few thoughts. I have had a few suggestions that I do not have enough journaling in my layouts. I had done some thinking and realized that I dont have a lot of extra room on my pages. Even when I do, I don't seem to want to take that space up with journalings.
So I've decided to do hidden journaling.
When I feel it adds to the page, I'll put some on it, but I think usually it will be hidden.

Tada!

The laugh and the heart are cricut die cuts. It seemed to stand out a bit better in person.

And the scrapbooking continues

This one I had finished before today. I thought about changing it a little, but finally decided to leave it the way it is.

Yet Another layout

Another of my oldest daughter. Unfortunately, I don't know how old she was when the pic was taken. The letters on this one (and some of the others) was done with cricut. Precious, adorable and cute are precut tiles on chipboard I bought at walmart in a cube.

Another layout

Here is another one: My oldest daughter at 6 months.

Layouts accomplished... thanks Cricut

I finished a lot of layouts today. Sorry the pics aren't the best.

The first one is of my oldest daughter when she was 3 months old.

This second one is of my roommate Val. She was one of the best roommates I had. She was great! I never saw her again after we roomed together that semester, and I still miss her.

I guess I will put these in separate blog entries. I haven't gotten the knack of picture placement apparently.
