a little scrappin'

earlier this month I got a chance to scrapbook at Camp Crop-a-Lot in Baton Rouge... I haven't done the new year resolution thing in ages - I mean the fact that I wake up each day is pretty much a miracle.... but if I could scrapbook just a little every week, that would make me much more "creatively well rounded" and I'm pretty sure that's not a technical term...

So if I was one of those crazy new year's resolution making/breaking people, I would "Try to scrapbook once a week"...so let's see how quickly my plan combusts... but I'm off to a pretty good start....

I did a few layouts at CCL, printed pictures three times (once really didn't count because when I went to pick them up I realized they were still sitting in my cart and I hadn't hit "complete purchase"...), downloaded pics from camera to computer to "the cloud" four times AND even started a layout at home...

ALL of that since January 1st - and it's not even February - plus I spent a week in Antigua, so I did all that in like three weeks, not four! AMAZEballs!  as proof, here are a few layouts...

and let me just say, my scrap life would be much easier of all events could be captured in ONE PAGE LAYOUTS...  Does anyone else feel this way?  The majority of my layouts are multi-photo (read: TONS of photos) double page spreads, but when I get the chance to do a single page layout, I'm like a kid in a candy shop...

just imagine the above layout as a two page spread - I'm not very good at taking the picture of the two pages side by side... just a few pictures from a Carnival Cruise in July...

Christmas 2011, not 2012...  why would I rush??? Does anyone recognize those Pink Paislee tags  (1st edition??)

Hope you find some time to scrap... and laugh today!
