8 years ago?

Post by pamcook »

I think it was 8 years ago. Will have to add a date tomorrow after Cara wakes up and I can ask her. Do you have trouble scrapbooking photos that have strong emotions attached to them? Apparently I do. I’ve thought about this page for a week. Agonized over the colors, products, design...geez.

I don't know the story behind this photo, but as far as page design goes, you nailed it. Gorgeous page and such a precious photo.

Great layout she looks adorable.

I can totally relate. Sometimes a group of photos will lay on my desk for weeks while I ponder which papers to use. Then suddenly a spark and off I go. Paper is harder, I think because once you cut and paste, that's it. I've been doing a lot of digi and that is so much more forgiving for me. I can do layouts and if I decide I like something else better, I do it. I do print my digi in 8x8 and have books for them.

No real story. They were living in Durban SA and I was terrified every minute. They loved it and felt quite safe. Plus I had hoped they would move back to the US. So long ago and so many moves!

Well, sorry you had to agonize over this but it was well worth it! This LO is just fabulous and though I don’t know the back story, the breezy tropical setting of the photo is beautifully represented in your choice or gorgeous papers and elements. Gorgeous LO.

What a beautiful layout, Pam. I like the contrast between the lush tropical foliage and the dry brown die cut embellishments. Typically South Africa.

Yeah? I never got to visit them when they lived there. The die cuts are gold though (almost impossible to photograph - almost always look black!). The paper is Maggie Holmes Chasing Dreams from last year. Embellishments are from that collection and Crate Paper’s Oasis from this year, I think.

Cara says January 2009.

Love the layout! The background paper is perfect, though that paper is something I would likely have had in my stash forever, not knowing what to do with it. This is perfectly put together.
