The One with Early Scrapbook Pages


Tuesday, November 2, 2010

I was getting out supplies to scrapbook for a client this morning and came across one of my first scrapbooks - the theme is all the dances I went to my senior year of high school. It's funny how trends come and go and how much my style has changed over the years. When I first started scrapbooking in 2001 7 Gypsies and Rusty Pickle and shabby chic/vintage was IN. As seen by these pages which I wish I could do-over but I won't because I think it's fun to look back and see how I've "grown."

Gotta love all the torn edges and layering.

Gotta love the TRIPLE matting of photos!
Photobucket
Gotta love the random embellishments!
Photobucket
Gotta love the variety of ribbons dangling everywhere and wrapping everything!

I believe my style took a drastic change when I started working at American Crafts in 2007 - which I'm forever grateful for! I love working with bright, happy, and fun colors - much more ME! :)
