My 1st Try at Traditional Scrapbooking

Had the idea for my recent trip to the beach with my dad, aunt, uncle &

13 cousins to make a scrapbook with each person (except the toddler & infant) making at least 1 page. Didn't happen, tho hopefully my cousin who scrapbooks will organize getting the pages done now that they're home (& after they get pics printed to work with). The cousin who scrapbooks & I each did 4 pages; and her husband, sister & niece each did one. I've posted my 4 pages (w/o pics, since we were creating the pages while looking at the digital images on my computer; I need to print those & send them to my cousin to add to the pages).

It's the last album in the group, "Beach Scrapbook". Thanks to a certain scrapbooker from OKC for the eyelet setter & some of the paper.

WTG Alicia! I think it looks great! What size will your album be? It might be easier digitally, but don't you find the tangibility of regular scrapping more satisfying? TFS!

Pages look great Alicia! I am too chicken to try making pages without the pictures in front of me! LOL I think you did really good! I'd love to see the pages after the photos are addes as well.

Nice LO's. I like that you were able to do them before you had the photos printed. Really saves some time.

Wow Alicia, great job on the layouts. I know how hard it is to scrap without pictures. So will you do more traditional scrapbooking or is it back to digital?

Thanks, everyone. As with digital, I was more pleased with some layouts than others.

Judy asked:

8.5x11. I suggested that size so we have the option of scanning it (no one in the family has a 12x12 scanner) to make copies for anyone who wants one.

Since I was returning to the west coast before the pics were printed, it was our only choice. There were 6 families on the trip, so we'd hoped to get the pages mostly done while we were altogether. Oh, well.

Cathy asked:

Back to digital. Not saying I won't do any traditional scrapbooking, but digital is my favorite medium.

Wonderful memories of a wonderful vacation. Your pages are nice. I'll bet it was a real challenge to put the pages together going back and forth with just the digital image. Sandy

Great layouts Alicia!! You did a great job on your 1st try. I know you like Digital better but don't you just enjoy pounding those eyelets?

Thanks, Tabitha.

Pounding eyelets is sure less expensive than pounding the keyboard. LOL
