Last 4 Mini Pages

Let me start by apologizing once again for my great delay in posting. (Seems like I've been doing that a lot lately!) Anyway, I've been really sick with a sinus infection and then I had a reaction to the meds that I was given. I'm on the mend now but I'm afraid it will take a while.

On top of my illness, my dad got injured pretty badly while doing some woodworking. He spent 5 hours in surgery and several hours in recovery. After a brief ICU stint, he is now home, attempting to heal.

Putting all of that together, I just haven't had the energy or attention to detail that scrapping requires. BUT....hopefully, that will change.

I have finished the final 4 pages for the Posh Brag Book Challenge and, while I'm not totally happy with all of them, they are DONE!

Page 8


Page 9


and Page 10


Now I just need to get the pages mounted onto chipboard and bound together. I'm hoping to get that done before Friday so that I can give it to my daughter when she returns from camp.

Two More Mini Album Pages

Here are the latest two pages for the mini album I'm doing for the Posh Designs group challenge.

My Little Athlete



and

My Social Butterfly



I am really loving this mini album! I haven't made many in my scrapbooking "career", but I could get used to it! I love the fact that these sketches are helping me use some of those scraps that I have accumulated over the last little bit. Too often they are neglected.

Better Late Than Never....

First of all, an update....

Since I last posted I have finished 3 graduation cards and one layout that I didn't post here. (The layout was actually a project for my sweet hubby. He had been asked to do a layout for a scrapbook that a group was completing at school. He was a bit lost on what to do, so I helped him out.)

Now....on to the latest thing that I finished.

I know that it is June on the calendar, but I had a layout or 2 that I was trying to finish up for the May challenges over at Mojo. The challenge was to
use an altered photo on a layout. I don't remember exactly what I did, but I used Photoshop to alter this photo. The journaling was the important part to me. (What can I say? It must be the English teacher in me.)
