These are some of my favorite scrapbooking layouts. I've complete 5 full 8-1/2x11" albums and am still going strong. Next on my scrapbooking agenda are our wedding pictures, and about a year's worth of home pictures, dating roughly March 2000 through June 2001.

I just love how these patterned papers worked together for the background of this layout and for matting. |
It's hard to see in this scan, but there's white mulberry paper used between the blue photo mat and the white-background print photo mat.
|
|
I had a lot of fun with lettering templates, raffia, and buttons on this layout. There are four more pages to this event, all in the same color scheme. |
I think simple layouts have the most impact.
|
|
The patterned paper mats and the title squares add a nice geometric feature to this layout. |
A little hemp cord adds the right dimension to this layout of pictures from the Fort Worth Stockyards. |
|
This layout uses round eyelets and smiley stickers for interest. Again, I used a template for the title lettering.
|
The shaker box in the upper left of this layout has tiny silver stars inside. |
|
I used lettering templates, computer printing, colored pencils, and stickers to accent the pictures in these layouts.
|
The white paper isn't printed, it's corrugated. I printed the script lettering reversed on my computer then cut it out carefully. Adhered with the printed side to the paper, it looks like this.

|
I hand cut the paper "rick rack" and used some tiny ladybug stickers on this page.
|
Eventually I have to come up with a title block for this simple but striking layout. Any suggestions? |
|
This two-page spread is one of my favorites. The colors and the composition just worked out right. This is a good example of how even the smaller 8-1/2x11" format can hold a lot of pictures on a page.
|
There are "pop dots" behind the parts of the title block. I got the pieces for this layout in a swap. |
|
Bold use of color and pattern fill this page without making it seem too busy. |
