So, it appears I'm on a wedding kick. This is my sister Andrea's album. She got married in 2005. I was 8 months pregnant with Hayden and couldn't sit for very long periods of time, so I put this together kind of fast.
Front cover with Jolee's
embellishments (just like my other sister's).
I think it
was while I was making this album that it dawned on me to print enlargements for
scrapbooking too! (the photos of the pages are taken at a slight angle which makes them look uneven, but in real life they are straight.)
I really like how this photo turned out. I don't remember why I mounted it on black though...I'll blame it on those pregnancy hormones!
I'll blame those flowers on my hormones too. I think I was looking for something to fill the space and not feeling too creative...apparently! At the top are 2 drawing that Natalie made for Andrea. The left one is a bride and groom (stick figure style) and the other is a
wedding cake.
All the little flower girls dressed up like little fairies.
Here's my handsome little
Zander at 2 and a half years old. The shot of my dad with all the
grandkids is so sweet.
This is my favorite photo I took of all the wee ones. Natalie is on the left and
Zander is on the right...with my nieces in the middle. Hayden was in my huge belly!
I didn't get too many shots of the
ceremony because I was in the wedding as a bridesmaid (looking lovely in my maternity bridesmaid dress!) The reception was held at the Hotel where my sister worked at the time.
It's always a toss up for me...use fewer photos on the page and have more space to embellish, or use lots of photos and use minimal embellishments. Sometimes I get tired of seeing layouts with just one photo...On one hand, I think it looks nice, it's just not practical. If I were to do one photo layouts on all my pages, it would take me three lifetimes to get everything done...plus that's a lot of pages!!!
