Pages in my 6x6 album


 Love how these pages turned out and 6x6 is a fun size.
Cedar memories are a capture of items I
had been keeping in my cedar chest (which has seen better days).
So I found a high school club jersery, did embroidry 
in those days, my candy striper outfit and cap
HS notebook and newspaper,
my confirmation dress and favorite first born outfit.

This is a 2 page spread and it feels
weird the title is on the second page but I'm not changing it
because I really like there.
I printed my photos 1.9x1.9 and that
works perfectly in getting 6 pictures on 4x6.
I really love doing this because while these photos are
precious, I have a small album to work with
and those photos would take up the entire book,
practically (I'd need more page protectors) if 
I did them singularly.
So...while they are important I like that there combined
because this is basically how they were 
found. 

The papers are DCWV playful pets 6x6 and
while I have no pets - the B side papers rock.

Scrappy pages on the road

I have to tell you I'm struggling with the
scrapping on the road.
It appears I brought WAY more than I need and yet,
nothing seems to work.
Heavy sigh.
 The Lincoln museum, tomb and home were really amazing.
If you ever get to Springfield you need to check it out.
Just be aware - not to much else to do.
 I kept things to a minimum because really nothing worked
and I wanted to be respectful.
 Grand Portage was fun.
Lots to see and very informative.
 Roosevelt National park was beautiful.
I couldn't decide on photos.
So Maybe I'll do more at home.
So we did go moose hunting and not a moose in sight.
However, how can that adorable moose
not be used.

If any of you have any suggestions I'd love to hear them.
I am not doing things in order which is a relief mojo wise.
However, bringing all the wrong things...
according to me... isn't helping and then using
only a few things out of the way too much I brought.
Check it out for yourself LOL.

All my stuff. 
You see those really cool zippered pockets.
There's like 10 of them chockful of stuff.
Just sayin....
