I mentioned in my last post that I got to have a scrapbooking day with my friend Chrissy before she moved back home. I haven't done a whole lot of scrapping lately but I did get a few layouts done with her that day, thank goodness! I wanted to share the new ones so here they are:

New Scrapbook Albums:
I also mentioned in my last post that Chrissy helped me pick out some new albums. These albums are actually 3-ring binder style, which is really nice for moving the pages around. What's unique about the pages is that besides the typical 12x12 page, you can also buy many different kinds of pages for putting 4x6 photos, panaromic photos, etc into.
I got the green one for our wedding, and the black one for our honeymoon in Alaska. I am almost up to this point in my scrapbooking. I don't want to albums to take me FOREVER (like the Greece/Turkey album that is nowhere near finished even though the trip was 2.5 years ago!)... so this is a new approach for me. It will take some planning, but I'm hoping it will speed things up because I won't have to scrap as many pages, I can just print photos for quite a few of the pages. It will be a mixture of a scrapbook and a photo album. Hopefully it will work well!
Also just for fun, while on the topic of scrapbooking... here is everything I have left from my paper crafting days... one little tote full of craft supplies:
This is basically the stuff I hung onto because it could be used for any craft project I might do in the future, even though I probably won't do paper scrapbooking again. Scissors, xacto knife, pens, stylus tool, bone folder, circle cutting tool, corner punch, acrylic paints and paintbrushes, acrylic stamps and their acrylic block handles, inks, stamp cleaner liquid and pad, chalks and brushes, paper puncher and eyelet setter, paper cutter, hot glue gun and glue sticks, matte medium, roll on adhesives, glue dots and more. I love this bag full of goodies!!
