Scrapbook Projects

It's been a while since I posted any scrapbook projects I've been working on. Then I realized that except for the crop I went to weekend before last, I haven't really done any scrapbook projects. When I've had time to scrap, I've been making cards, cards, cards -- Christmas, Valentines, birthdays, anniversary. But I did do a layout about the aprons I took a notion to sew for my daughter-in-law and granddaughter, using leftover fabric from the aprons instead of patterned paper:

I also decided this was the year I would do a book about the happenings in my rather dull life. I'm using Simple Stories Year-o-Graphy collection in a 6"x12" format, which I've never tried before, and finally figured out a format to accommodate journaling, photos and embellies. At the end of the year I'll either bind it with my Bind-it-All or with rings. As it turned out, January started the year with a bang when I got to take a trip to Arizona (which will get a book all it's own!); and January and February pages came together nicely at the crop. Now if only something interesting happens in March -- or I may just have to take photos of the neighborhood!

Now it's back to cards for a while -- some for the gazillion April birthdays in my family, and more for Operation Write Home. I try to make 2 cards a day. I have another crop on the 31st so I'll probably dedicate that to more scrapbook pages.
