Yes that’s right, drum-roll please… my 2012 cruise album is COMPLETE, woo hoo!

2012 Cruise Album

It took awhile to find my groove once again with scrapbooking but this last week I’ve really enjoyed it. Not many of the pages are intricate or involved but I like them.

This double-page below is a perfect example of a quick and clean layout of mine. Simple yet effective PLUS I finally had an opportunity to use some fabric labels that have been in my stash for the longest time! 🙂

How’s your scrapbooking going this summer? Or you busy creating memories to scrap once the children are back in school in the fall? Whatever you are doing, I hope you are keeping cool! 🙂

Oh, and have yourself an... Inkee Fiddling Day!

ScrapTastic Saturday!

This is a new heading for Inkee Fiddlings which I’m going to use to push myself to become more diligent and a tad more consistent with my scrapbooking. My logic is if I have to post something every week then perhaps, just perhaps, I will complete at least ONE double-sided page a week.

With 52 weeks in a year even if I only manage something once a fortnight it gives me at least two dozen pages which gets me so much closer to catching-up then I am right now. Not that I think I will EVER catch up but hey, baby-steps, lol! 🙂

Now, having said all that I have completed absolutely NOTHING this week in the way of scrapbooking but here’s something that I’m sure will bring a smile to your dial. This is one of my double-page spreads I did in a booklet for my parents almost a decade ago. Truly, how sad is this, even the photos I reprinted are of poor quality!

The early scrapbooking years...UGH!

But get this, on the very next page of the very same booklet, I’ve created this… go figure huh!

My very early scrapbooking years!

The long and the short of it though, no matter how “bad” we think, or we know, we were back in our early scrapbooking days, we did scrap and after having all my digital photos stolen, both those on a laptop and my back-up memory sticks, scrapbook photos are now the only photos I now have of those years. So… God Bless Scrapbooking!

Oh, and have yourself an... Inkee Fiddling Day!
