My Dear Old Friends

Those are my same friends! Love that you did a page about your childhood favorites. Great page. Love the title work.

What a nice idea to scrap about your books! I love the journalling.

Great journaling!

LOVE how you used this Sass! WOW! Just awesome. And a really great subject to scrap. :)

LOVE THIS! SUBMIT!!!!

What a wonderful page. I love this idea of making a layout about yourself using a photo that represents you with you being in it. You pulled it off really well. I have to mention how as I looked at all the little extras that made the page so charming I noticed subtle representatives of other childhood books I've read too.

What a great idea....such a nice tribute to your fave books! I'm sure your children and grandchildren will enjoy them too!!!

great job! Love that butterfly!

Very cool bg pp!

Nice sassafrass, love the concept, books rock!

I agree with you that books are like friends! This layout is wonderful! The colors pop so dramatically!

Great page - I LOVE to read too, and all of my children have picked up that habit from me, too! Matter of fact, Sarah was just pulling stuff together today to do a layout about her favorite books and how she loves to read! Very cute layout - love all the bright colors! Great title - I feel the same way - I have certain books that I go back and read again and again!

LOVE THIS!

Very cool page and I agree...books are old friends. The Secret Garden is still one of my all-time favorite books. I'm a voracious reader (109 books in 2008) and belong to a book club! Thanks for the trip down memory lane with these beloved favorites!
