Typeset Scrapbooking

Posted on by

Wanting to do something a little different my New Orleans pages, I used some of the Typeset DSP to create filing pages for each of the three sections I wanted to highlight. The tabs I created from a framelit from the Chalk Talk Framelits set, folding in half to create the tab look.

New Orleans Highlights in Typeset!

I just want to make a quick disclosure here stating the first four photos for our hotel came from their website as all the photos I thought I’d taken of the hotel and our room were obviously all in my mind. I could not find ONE photo, with the exception of the coffee-bar-box that I’d taken. Very odd…

So many photos, so few pages!

I’m still plodding along with my album for last year’s cruise. Oddly, when I began setting it all up week-end before last I HONESTLY thought I would be finished by now. Huh?

There were almost 3,000 photos I took on that cruise and I thought I’d been done in 12 days. The word “delusional” comes to mind, lol. 🙂 875 photos for the ten hours we were crossing the Panama Canal alone!

In the end I decided to do three double-page spreads on the crossing but I could have done an entire album. I may just do that but not until I’ve caught up on ALL my albums. Here’s my double-page on the locks.

Panama CanalThirty-four photographs in total are on this double-page spread. Some may say too many but there’s still 334 more on the locks I didn’t use!

Scrapbooking – always a love/hate relationship between it and I – the end results however are ALWAYS worth it! 🙂

Following a plan!

Posted on by

With my latest scrapbook, I thought I’d approach it differently by actually preparing a sketch for each page BEFORE I began work. This is what I’ve just completed.

Puerto Vallarta

Nothing fancy as this was a lazy day for us at this port of call so there weren’t many photos or memorabilia.

Oh how clever I felt as I pulled out my chosen papers to commence my work with a sketch by my side. This is the sketch for the page I’ve just completed.

PV Sketch

See any similarities between the two? Nope, there aren’t any except the size of the photographs. That was the ONLY thing I didn’t change, lol! 😉

I was at a crop earlier this year where a group of the gals had these incredible books with page after page of scrapbook layouts. Not long until the next crop, hope they bring those books with them!

And so it begins again…

The whiteboard has been cleaned off in preparation of the next album to be created and completed with its pages now mapped out upon it.

2013 Cruise Outline - here we go again!

Looks so easy set out neatly on the white-board doesn’t it? Shame about the 2,918 photos to trawl through in order to choose what I need, lol. Good thing I love what I do (most of the time…)! 🙂
