When I was going thru photo books looking for some v/tion pic's from our trip to Canada I realized just how many pic's we had. There is almost a full book of Niagara Falls pic's. I can't find a/thing for that theme either!! That doesn't include the British fort pic's we went to.There is a lot of Hill Cumorah pic's ,LDS Church historical sites & w/falls in N.Y. YIKES!!! Too much overload!!!Sent the posse to Jan & said help!!! I'm not scrapping all these pic's. That doesn't include the ones to Zion & Grand Canyon
Orginally I was going to do them all & split them up among the kids. Jan thought she would have them scanned in & CD's burned of the pic's & each kid gets a copy. WHEW off the HOOK!! I started these pgs on Feb 14th when Allen went to Utah for Katya's baptism. I just got back to them 3 weeks ago. I told her I still have 75 pgs of my mission s/bk in a box I haven't gotten back to in a year. I need to put journal tags & titles etc. on them. Forest is supposed to get this when I die.It includes 50 pgs of my journal edited & rewritten. I need to get back to it.
I'M SO RELIEVED THIS IS DONE !!! THIS WAS SUPPOSED TO BEEN a C-mas present!!! I had too many projects on the burner.

15 pages done!!!
I finally got started on the twins scrapbook project. I had taken all the photo's & p/card from the 1st magnetic photo book. E/thing is falling out of the book. That's how I got the idea to scrap it , I figured if the kids starting pulling the books out,stuff would fall out & get lost.I was supposed to do this for C-mas for them. Dec. was so cold,we had snow,my FM kicked in & my hands hurt so bad this winter so e/thing got delayed.
In filing my paper away I ran across paper I had forgotten about in my stash. I have been collecting items for 2 yrs to do this project Jan had gotten some collages for her b-day last year. I used some really cool travel paper that went well w/ some of my pic's. An Ephderma book I had bought for 1 project,I found some wooden looking paper to go w/ Plymouth Platation pic's. I had filed away a paper w/water on it. I was doing a pic/ that had water in a Lock. I remembered that paper, I pulled it out,it really set off the pic. well.
It really speed things up having the box of mat size colored c/stock on the table. All I had to do was flip thru the colors & pull out the mat size I needed.this is why I have 15 pgs of pic's matted on my patterned paper. I have ran out of Yes glue right now so I'm waiting on an order to come in.
I also used my Distress inks to ink some of the edges of my cards stock mats to age them a little to go w/the pic's I was mounting. Also I was glad I had a spare of Herma tabs in my drawer to use on my photos,
i have pulled the 2nd book of vacation photo's to sort thru & start mounting the pic'swhen the Yes glue comes in.
