This is the last LO I did using the photos taken with Jen's camera in Dec. 2005. I'm glad I finished them all but editing those photos was time consuming since I really didn't know what I was doing, LOL.

And yet another photo from Dec. 2005 that needed tons of editing; a black and white image was the best I could do (PS. Can you imagine a better kit for a picture of boys than one called "Doing Denim"?):

Here's another LO with a photo (which I also tried to edit) from the same camera as yesterday's post.
Kit: "TERRES KENYANES" by Timounette
Folded paper element: Rolled paper template #3 by Dreamsfulfilled
Word Art: Simply Devilish Scrapz

This LO took me FOREVER to do; I was practicing my photo editing and then I had trouble getting the date font to work. I'm still not sure I like how it came out. The template is a quick page, so that's fine; it's the image itself that's iffy:
This is the photo I started with; Jen took it in 2005 with an inexpensive digital camera I gave her for Christmas that turned out to be fairly useless:
I used a tutorial from The AFX Files at http://actionfx.blogspot.com to try to fix the color, erased all the background clutter (I wasn't too fussy with the background because I knew most of it would get blocked out), and got this:I inserted the image into the quickpage and then decided to try to mess around with PS actions, which I know NOTHING about. Somehow I ended up with the sepia-toned effect and decided to go with it. I'm thinking I probably could have skipped the color correction and gone right to the sepia, except that wasn't my original intent. Here's the LO without the sepia: which do you like better?

I did this LO today in honor of the first day of spring. There is a silly robin hanging around the house; it actually was around all winter. How it survived, I don't know. I wonder if it is one of the ones from last year? (PS: I just LOVE the soft colors in this kit):

I couldn't resist making this page of our kitty Louise (a.k.a. Stinky). She likes few things but loves boxes and adopted this shoebox as a place to hang out when she's not upstairs sleeping. She is one of those cats who manages to look p*ssed off even when she's in a good mood, which she often is NOT:

Here is another band picture, but this one features my godson at one of his events:

Birthday Boys

How's this LO for a riot of color? When I downloaded this freebie paper I didn't have a project in mind...but when I decided to scrap the pictures of these boys, the colors of their clothes fit so well with the paper:

Background paper: Papier-peintre-2 by ScrapKado
Red and green grunge papers by LaRessie Digital Designs
Chain tag element: Sparkling Special Designs

This is another example of where scrapping digitally came in handy, considering the number of photos; these images have been living on my hard drive for 4 years! (although I did use the image on the very left bottom for a Christmas card one year)

All three girls were in band all through middle school and high school so a lot of my scrapbook pages focus on band events. I was really excited to see the band alphabets at Lettering Delights because they had a great selection of school colors:

Last night I was looking for something new to scrap and I came across this picture I took a few years back when a friend of my sister purchased my Mom's dining room set. This china cabinet is in the background of many family photos but I'm glad I have this picture too. I'm not very good at editing photos yet so the color could be better.

This LO I did just a little while ago, I benefited from the fact that so many designers are creating multi-photo templates for Project 365:

Sometimes I think my LO's end up too busy; I liked this template because it was so simple:

The pictures in these 2 layouts were taken back in December.
