The Album!!

As promised, here are the 25 (!!) pages from the last 3 months.  Enjoy!  They're compressed for going online, so if you want to see them in their full glory, you are cordially invited to come over for tea and a visit. :)

Another Cousin Collage!

This one's not complete with all the Ward cousins - Kasden and Mataya were not there on Boxing Day when we celebrated at Grandma and Grandpa's new place in Balgonie.  Also, I only had 6 spots in this collage, so I left Madeline out.  Shhh... Don't tell.

 

The two on the left are sisters, the two in the middle on the right are sisters, and the two in front of the trees (top and bottom on the right) are sisters, and belong to the 3rd, 4th, and 5th brothers, respectively.

Christmas with the Cousins!

I planned to play around all night in my studio while Sean hosted a poker night upstairs, but the creativity and the energy were both lacking.  I spent time & played Bananagrams with M until she went to bed, then I lost an hour or so in front of the TV...  I did mess around on my new Cricut, and pulled out the layouts that were started but not finished at the scrapbooking retreat in October after not seeing them for 2 1/2 months, but didn't get much done.  Maybe today...  Although tonight feels like a good night for a movie night.

I ordered some photos from Christmas today, so I'll have new stuff to work with, too, but got thinking about how to arrange the little ones and remembered collages, which I haven't worked with much, but have wanted to.  So here for you is a little something I put together...  I find that with my blog, my paper scrapbooking doesn't get very much attention any more.  My pictures are out there to be seen, by more of you than if I scrapbooked them.  That's fine with me - I do enjoy messing around with paper sometimes, but sometimes I want to mess around on the computer, and sometimes I want to sew something and sometimes I want to make something else.  No pigeon hole for me.

No pigeon hole for you either - bring your scrapbooking or whatever else you want to work on to our next Craft Social!  If you live close by and want to join us, we are meeting 7-whenever on Tuesday, January 18, at Westhill Park Baptist Church.  Come to visit!
