BOY AM I THANKFUL! Most of you probably know that for the past few months I've been working on my cousin's wedding album. Not only did LJS Photography take over 500 pictures, I whittled them down to 292 images for their album. Now this led to three separate shopping trips for cardstock & embellishments. Periwinkle, lilac, blues & purples all look alike when you don't have the photographs with you. Putting it together (as simple as it is) also took three sessions and one of those was an all nighter! Took me almost two hours to find an appropriate sized album and insert the pages in the sleeves. All 70 pages fit nicely in a creme & black leather All My Memories Album. Finally it is finished.
The HAPPY couple picked it up on Sunday. Here a few pages, some of them are two page layouts, but I couldn't get them in the right order for this collage, sorry, I'll put the single images up on the Scraps of Color Gallery soon. Physically and emotionally this project took a lot out of me and I promise, I will never offer to do another large scale album again.
Way 2 go Lisa!
