Layout: Clark's Elioak Farm

Just to prove that I actually do scrapbook my family, and not just Twilight... :-)

I went to a weekend scrapbooking retreat a few weeks ago and actually worked on some non-Twilight related layouts. I kept things very simple since I didn't bring ALL of my stash with me.

Papers and stickers from Close to My Heart's More to Adore kit. The right-hand page is actually a pre-printed layout that I just added the photos to.

Christmas Album: Daddy's Christmas Gift

I don't spend all my time on my Twilight album. :-) I have several pages from Christmas 2008 but most are waiting on journaling, a title, or other detail before I can declare them "finished" and share them.

Here is one page from Christmas 2008. The paper is from Creative Memories' Starry Night pack.

Twilight Scrapbook: Biology Class

A paper layout for my Twilight album. The paper is from My Mind's Eye. Title cut from Plantin Schoolhouse Cricut cartridge. Large photo from the Borders DVD set, and the small photo I found online and printed.

Page design based on a page map from Becky Fleck's book.

Twilight Scrapbook: The Meadow

Another paper layout for my Twilight scrapbook. I know it's hard to tell in the photo but the background paper is DCWV metallic paper (textured) and the title letters have glitter glued on them. The letters were cut with my brand new Cricut Expression (woo hoo!). The flower border is a digital element I had that I printed and then cut out. Honestly for all the time I spent on printing, cutting, and glittering, I should have just done this page digitally and added the photo after the fact! The photo is from the Borders Exclusive DVD pack. The layout design is from a sketch I found here: http://artgirlzscrappinattic.typepad.com/photos/sketches/12x12_page_for_5x7_photo.html

In the end though, I think this is one of my favorite layouts I've ever done (color/design wise I mean) so all the time it took was worth it.

Twilight Scrapbook: Bella & Edward

Another page for my Twilight Scrapbook, another non-digital page. Pictures are from the Borders DVD set. Sorry about the weird color on Bella's photo: these pictures are slightly ... glittery? ... and reflect the light in weird ways. Their basic information is taken from Twilight Lexicon.

Twilight Scrapbook: The Cullens

Another page for my Twilight Scrapbook - my first non-digital one, although the text is all typed. I printed the picture of Carlisle and Esme from a website (http://www.twilightersanonymous.com). The picture of Edward's siblings came from my Border's Exclusive DVD set - sorry about the glare. The text is basic facts about each character, taken from the Twilight Lexicon.

Layout: Nap Time

CM and CTMH paper, CTMH stamps and ink. Becky Fleck page map.

Layout: New Toys

My Mind's Eye paper, CTMH stamps and inks. CM stickers. The tag I got in a swap so I don't know where the pieces came from.

Layout: Painting Ornaments

The layout still needs something. Something on the right side to balance out the photos.

Coming January: CTMH's new catalog!

Halloween Album, beginning layouts

Creating a Halloween album that I update each year has been on my to-do list for a while. I finally started it a few weeks ago. I am using a 9x9 CTMH album and the Enchanted paper pack. So far all of my layouts have come from Reflections, one of CTMH's idea books.

I have more pages done but haven't taken photos of them yet. These layouts still need some embellishments and/or journaling.
