I had some pictures from my grandmother’s 80th birthday last October, but had put off scrapping them because I didn’t exactly know what to do with them. I finally plucked up the courage to scrap the pictures from this important day and came up with this LO:

When DH and I want to take a picture of ourselves, it’s never easy nor quick. We always have to try out several poses, and then take multiple shots because either I had my eyes closed or DH was making a funny expression (usually, the latter!!). So yesterday the picture I chose for my Project 365 was only one of  17 that we took, and most of them were terrible! 🙂

Valorie Brown is having a CT call!! Check it out here.

I entered a contest with a few LOs. Please vote for me (you only need to click, no need to give personal info nor register!).

I did a 2-pager today using a bunch of Sugarplum Paperie’s goodies.

I took some closeups of some of my beloved tree ornaments with the new camera, and did a double pager to showcase them.

Here’s a closer look at the individual pages:

I have SO many more Christmas pictures to scrap I wonder whether I’ll ever be done with them, and when! 🙂

I’ve been a very bad blogger this week! But going back to work after the Christmas break was tough, and on top of it I received some very bad news from a friend and I’ve been out of sorts lately.

I’ve been regularly taking my pics for Project 365 but haven’t had time to put together this week’s LO yet. I’ll get to it soon anyway!

Happy New Year everyone!

There’s a lot of interest all over the web for Project 365. I read about it months ago, and recently re-learnt about it from IkeaGoddess. The project is to take a photo a day, for a year.

I like the idea, but I’m not really sure how to apply it. Taking a photo a day shouldn’t be a problem (actually, I might have the opposite problem: I tend to take many pictures once I start, so choosing just one photo a day will be really hard). And then since I’m all about scrapping, how should I scrap them? Ideally, a 2-pager per week would work well.

But I like to dwell over the minor and major events in my life so scrapping 3/4 pictures from different days on one page is not going to be enough for me..

Anyway, I’ll start it for now, and we’ll see where it leads me. I will take more than one photo a day and will try to choose just one for the Project, and use all the ones I want to scrap as usual.

Here’s my first LO of 2009 and it’s one I’m very pleased with:

The pictures were taken only minutes after ringing in the new year.

I managed to scrap one more LO before the clock strikes midnight. 🙂

I was afraid we might not have snow for Christmas, but we indeed had a very white Christmas! 🙂
