Bio: I'm trying to s/bk 1973-75 as aL.D.S. m/ary in the Alaska/B.C. mission. I edited my journaal entries onto a/free paper w/bk ink. I just made pockets for them. I'm here lk for ideas. I'm in the process of doing Allen as a kid in the 50's. I'm using hertiage paper,mens theme. I used distressing tech. on the papers
I did a c/b bk. for my son,Maya Rd," C-mas seen thru the eyes of a child". He was so ticked since he now had pic's of him w/his gr/gr/mom.
Mom G got a brag bk of our g/kds. I had to order them online from Flickr. This was different for me. I had been making her calendar for 4 yrs. Last yr I did a 12x12 one. I even s/bk the calendar pg. It took 2 wks to do from scratch. I tk the paper & Kinko a spiral on it to hang up.I couldn't match what I did last yr. This was quicker to do
I made 4 winter collages w/c//bd from cereal boxes. I used my new clear s/man stamp set,brads,metal s/flakes,colored chalked clipart s/flakes from a web search,s/flake stickers.My final touch was making s/flakes from shrink able plastic. I found c/pgs and used them as a pattern.My happiest hrs. are wk in my rm making presents for others.
I love playing w/new media and trying new tech I enjoy c/mk more than s/bk it's more spontaneous. In s/bk I don't want to mess up since it's being saved

TripletMother: Thanks for leaving a comment in my profile! How do I find time to scrap?? I find any couple of minutes I have to scrap. My scraproom and laundry room are combined so if I go to do a load of laundry, I will try to spend an extra few minutes working on a lo. Otherwise I go to crops once a month and when the kids are sleeping!

Jenabeescrappin: Hi there! I just saw your comment on my profile - to answer your question, I haven't done too many LDS pages yet, just one missionary double LO and a couple of baby blessings. I like to use black patterned papers, I especially like CTMH papers like Silhouette. You can find a few of the ones I have done in my gallery. I hope that helps - let me ...

CatScrapsHere: I think that what I would do is go into the gallery here and under lo's, click on Themes and then Heirloom and look at the lo's there. Also, you can do a search and try plugging in Heritage or Family History. And on your dh's pics, I would ask him about each of them if you can. I've been doing that with some of my dad's pics so that I can have s...
