Another Scrapbook

I completed another scrapbook! Thanks, Stacey, for making me this album (has it been 2 years already?). It makes it easy when all I have to do is fill in info and photos!

I'm Done!

I am done my wedding album! I am so happy!

And so, for the final pictures.

This page I edited from before. I removed some things and added others that will hopefully tie in the album a bit better (Aug 5)

I edited this page as well. I added frames to the photos to help them stand out a bit, as well as a few embellishments that I think add a certain je ne sais quoi! (Aug 5)


I'm really pleased with how this page turned out, especially since it was hard to figure out what to do since the one photo was an odd size. (Aug 3)


I love this page. I think the square look lends itself well to these photos. (Aug 4)

And, the final page! I'm so happy! Funny, the photo itself took longer to edit on gimp than it did to scrapbook this page, haha. I love how it turned out though. Sigh... (Aug 5)
That's it! All done! SOOO Happy!

So Close!

I think I'll only have one more post after this one, and my album will be done!


The above photo is of the guest list page, and the redid page that I had posted in my last post. The bright yellow one? Yeah, completely different... paper, photos, etc. (July 28)

This one I could finally work on since I had the pictures of us signing now. I wanted to have the photo of the women singing the song that I typed up, but that was a color photo, and to keep both of these pics of us each signing, it wouldn't have worked. Plus, it just wasn't the greatest quality photo either. (July 28)

I did this page today. Took a long time. I had such a hard time with it because I REALLY wanted to use the sheet of paper on the left, this was the only place I could really use it, and it seemed busy, so I had to try to work with it a bit. I'm happy with the result. The ribbon was what really sealed the deal here. (July 30)
Alright, now I only have 5 pages to go! The two of the groom, the two with the both of us together, and the final page. Shouldn't take much since the paper is already picked out for them all. I'm looking forward to this being complete! :)

Guess what... more Scrappin

Time for more pics.

First some older pages I did ages ago.


This was the last page I did before I quit for 2 years. I quite like this page, so all I did was add the 'boy meets girl' title.

This is yet another old page. Lots going on here. I'm not thinking I'll change this one.

This one needs to change I think. At least adding some borders to the photos would be good. This was my very first page I did.

I love these pics, and as a second page, I think I did much better (I added borders, which helped). I added the 'I'm Yours' title to it today.

This is going to be completely redone. The colors are far too harsh for the album, so the page is going to be taken out completely and I'll be adding in different 'getting ready' pics instead. Sad, really. Then the adjacent page is for the guest list, and the paper shown there is what I'll be using for that.

I finished this page last week Tuesday. I had started on it Monday and was thinking I'd leave it and do 5x7's for the pics instead, but I didn't feel like waiting on it (hahaha) so I just left it with the 4x6's. The 'black squares' in the corner are mirror pieces. I think it turned out rather lovely (July 20-21).

I just finished this page today, and I'm rather happy with it. I got the pics in yesterday (I love Photolab.ca... I can pick my pics online at home, and then the next time we go shopping just go to pick them up). This was one of the pages I skipped due to not having any pics of me coming down the aisle. (July 25-26)

This one I did today. Yup... decided it would be good to do this... since it is the first page. I didn't feel it needed a title... it sort of speaks for itself (not to mention all the words at the bottom of the page make one kinda unnecessary). (July 26)

So, that's that for this week. Now let's see if I can get the other 7 pages done next week... and maybe even the other 2 I wish to redo! Then this book will be complete! :)

Scrappin Some More

The above page took me a bit... trying to pick paper. Why is that so hard? Really... black, black, or this black... it shouldn't be so difficult! Anyway, I like how they turned out. I was going to have 'bride' on one side and 'groom' on the other, and then completely different page 'sets' dedicated to family and the bridal party, but I couldn't fit the pics I wanted of us on only one set, so I'm separating them into two sets instead. These pics lent themselves well to the square look... better than the others. (July 14-15)

I started this page last week Thursday... only to run out of stickies. So, since we were in the city on Sunday, I picked up some more from Dollarama and finished it today! I'm pleased with the look of it. I tried to do something a bit different by not having a border around some of the photos, and adding only one colored pic to each page, and making them sort of the 'negative' of each other... haha. (July 16, 20)

More Scrappin'

This page I had all planned out in my head for years now. And now it's done! I'm so happy with the results! (July 13).

More Scrapbooking

I finally finished this set of pages... it took me four days! Sheesh.

I had the most trouble with the set up of the right page... mainly because of the setup of the two toasts being so different. I finally decided to try to mirror the left page somewhat instead. I think it turned out rather well (July 8-11)
