Project 52 Week 3

I know we are just ending with the fourth week of January, but I didn't start this project until the second week, hence Week 3!  I am really happy with how this 2-page layout turned out.  I'm not sure if I mentioned before or not, but I am doing 2-page layouts rather than single pages and I am scrapbooking past and present rather than limiting myself to 2011.  I just started scrapbooking a year or so ago, but I have not done much of it, so this is a great way for me to begin catching up.  I am only able to do from about 2005 on as when we moved overseas I left all my photos behind.  I do have a few pictures from before we left, but not many.

For these pages I used two of the pre-made photo layouts and went from there.  I added a piece of Lap of Luxury Designer Series Paper as my background and created my Basic Gray layer by adding a square punch and stretching it to the size I wanted followed by using the color fill function to add the color.  I then added the Scalloped Trim Border Punch and color filled with Concord Crush.  The brads are from the Sending Love Epoxy Brads download.  The only difference on Page 2 is that I omitted the use of the brads.  For the journaling at the top of Page 2, I added a layer of Pretty in Pink card stock behind the journaling to ease readability. 

I'm really happy with the way these pages turned out.  And the fact that I've completed three 2-page layouts in the last three weeks boggles my mind.  It's more than I've done in the past three months!
