I found a sketch online and is that ever the way to go. I was able to finish this during Gracie's naptime! How awesome is that? I love naptime. =) I loved not having to sit there and figure out where to put everything. It totally took away the pressure. I used my new goodies, which was also super fun. I love having pre-coordinated stuff to choose from. I also love that it came with these.
This was the first scrapbook page I have made for/of Gracie and it felt great. It was awesome to record memories for her. I am not sure if I love the sticker in between the 2 photos, but it is a sticker and it won't come off. So, it stays. Perfection is not my game, people. I liked that the sketch had a place for paper, and helped me layer the paper, and had a place for the title and journal, but that was it. So, the rub-ons across the top and the sticker were my additions. I also changed were the journaling was supposed to be. There was supposed to be a little box for journaling slightly to the left of the bottom photo but I felt like using the open space on the bottom and really like how that came out. I have never used rub-ons before and I ended up with a smudge of black on the paper, which did not make me happy. I couldn't get it off so I trimmed that bit off. I know. Again, perfection isn't going to happen. Any advice on to safely use those rub-ons? Is it better to trim off the bit you want to use? So, overall I am lovin' the page and have been thinking about scrapping all day. I am hoping to do that tonight (I have an awesome pic to scrap) while we watch some TV. If they choose that crazy girl, I am going to be irritated!
Yeah, I usually cut the rub-ons Im going to use at the moment apart from the rest so that I dont accidentally end up with little pieces of other ones on the page. I love rub-ons, especially words! Theyre fun to use on the picture its self since they dont hide too much like stickers sometimes do.
