I finally scrapped!

I spent most of yesterday working on baby shower invitations for Brittany. My sister Coleen came over and helped me. We didn't get them finished, but we made a huge dent in them. After all that boring assembly line work I decided that I would actually scrap a layout. This is from a kit that my local scrapbook store sells. (scrapbooks, etc) They have a new 12X12 kit every Monday and usually sell out by Wednesday. I will occasionally buy one, but not often since I scrap 8 1/2 X11. I just bought extra stuff to make this a 2 page layout. The greens are the same color, but scanned weird from the bulky stuff. The sewing on the turns looks terrible, but I'm okay with that. I know I cram a lot of pictures on a page, but I like it better that way. Scrapbooking is too expensive to only have one picture on a layout...unless it's a really special picture. :o) This is Cole, my 9 year old when he was little. He is so stinking cute! I just love that boy!
