Scrapbook Therapy

A dear, wise friend, Melanie, suggested that I needed some scrapbook therapy. The idea is that I needed to fill my mind and surround myself with pleasant, happy memories. It works! (Once you get over all your pens being dried out, the blades to your cutter being missing, and the baby spilling milk on the prints). ::snort::

We printed out digital photos for Cy's graduation table last night and this a.m. (had to go buy new ink and paper as our cartridge had dried out since the last use LOL). I planned to pull photos from the albums too....but it quickly became apparent that I had WAAAY to many photos for the board....Josiah suggested I throw the 40 - 50 that I couldn't fit on the board on the table in front of the board...we compromised with getting a sleeve type album and putting that on the table. LOL

At one point, I seriously considered doing something "scrappy" with the contact sheets and calling it good. ::snort::
Ideas began to gel. I cut out titles and let myself be a bit scrappy on them. Overall, I refrained from froofy....not Cy's style at all. {g}


Here's the nearly finished product. I still need to take photos of our CURRENT home for the bottom left side....I also need to buy a gold gel pen to write labels of towns for the "homes" section. I may put some do dads in some of the blank spaces.
