I'm getting smarter! Instead of editting my scan in the HP software (which was locking up) I went to Plan B and used PSE! I've done this before but not for a double page layout....so I made an extra long canvas and pasted both layouts on it! Viola! Done! No fighting with a post in blogger tonight to try to get the two layouts to line up...woo hoo!

This will be the final page in one of the girls' Disney albums. This does not mean I am "done" with the album because I am not working in chronological order....just creating whatever inspires me. Inspiration for this one came from LOAD's very own katieplus4! Thank you! I was able to complete this one in less than 30 minutes - woot! woot!

I think I have missed uploading a few layouts so I will play catch up soon! Just another quick Disney page! This round of LoAD is going fast and so far has been easy since I have tried to stick with the Disney theme. It eliminates the pressure of finding something inspiring to scrap....Disney is so fun to scrap...no inspiration needed! Walt already took care of that!!

Added the second page to this post but I'm not sure yet which will be the right page and which will be the left.

What do you think?

Day 12 LOAD 5/10

Lots of photos from It's a Small World. This was Tanner's favorite ride....can't remember how many times we rode it but it was the last one before we left the park. I plan to add some glittery brads to jazz it up a bit but the thickness of the brads makes it difficult to scan.

Day 11 LOAD 5/10

Fast! No pun intended! ha ha!

We had a gymnastics performance and a baseball game on this freezing cold evening so very little time was available to spend on a layout.

Journaling pull tag reads: We all lost count! No one can remember how many times you and your dad rode The Tower of Terror! It was one of your California Adventure favorites!

Day 7 LOAD 5/10

I forgot to send these two pages to the blog
after I'd uploaded them at flickr.

Finally! It is a major trick to upload these two layouts side by side the way they should appear!

Needs journaling but that is no surprise to any of you!!

Nothing fancy here just an early page in A.'s Disney album. Planning to work on several pages for the girls' books but have a few other ideas looming. I guess we will all be surprised to see what develops!

Tomorrow and in the days to follow it is my intention to work on the girls' Disney albums & my AE inspired Week in the Life album....need to print photos!

I spent three days with friends scrappin' at our LSS and got 29 pages done....some may need a little journaling but that can be done. I added photos to another set and added embellishments and titles to another so that makes 33! Wow! That could be a new record for me.

28 of 28! Mission Accomplished!!

I really liked Lain's prompt today which was to finish something...today would have been a perfect day to do just that since we did not get home from a weekend trip to Lincoln until 8:30 p.m. But I didn't finish one that'd I'd already started....I did another one start to finish because this was an easy one! Anyway, her prompt got me to thinking....why not spend the next 31 days finishing something!?!? Lots of those layouts laying around waiting for home in albums. I ordered a bunch of page protectors from JoAnn's so that will no longer be my excuse for not putting them away!

Enjoy! this one. I created it because it reflects a piece of history that I felt was important to document. The paper is Jillibean-Soup...so FUN! You can get your own at Maggie's in Hershey!

This was a very busy Monday at work and I had no time to think about what topic I might want to do, brainstorm color scheme, think about pattern papers or embellishments. The evening continued on in much the same way with gymnastics for A. and dance for C. Thankfully J. helped by cooking supper and it was delicious! So it was 10:10 when I finally got around to choosing pictures. I knew what I wanted the title to be and the rest literally fell into place in less than 20 minutes! yeah!! Can't wait to work on page two of this layout! Funny girls!

Week #6 Sketch Challenge

This is Week #6 of the Sketches Challenge at Ella Publishing! Here is the sketch....ideas anyone? It needs to be done by next Wednesday.

I really like this one! Should be fun!
