My first crop

Natalie and I went to our very first crop last Friday night. I don't have any pictures of us cropping (because of course I forgot the camera), but I do have a couple of pics of the pages I worked on.

I started Roman's book for his first year. Here is the Front of the Album.


And here is his first page.


I also scrapped a page for my 2008 album of just a couple of pics of Nat and I.




I have only been scrapping since we moved to Arkansas. My cousin Marna always tried to get me into it, but I never really had the time or interest. However, before I got married, my grandmother had bought me one of those pre-made scrapbook wedding albums, where you just plug in the pictures, and I loved the look of it, so I decided that I would give it a try. Here are the first two pages that I created. I didn't use the right glue on the first page, so the pictures are all lumpy, but here they are. It was all about Roman's first trip to the zoo.



There is a lot of blank space on the second page, because at that point, I didn't really know what I was doing, and I had NO embellishments to add, just leftovers from Roman's birthday invitations. They aren't the greatest, but they will always be special because they were the first!

Shortly after trying this, I decided to make father's day cards for all the men in our lives. Here are a couple of them.




I've never been very artsy-fartsy, but I really enjoy scrapping the thousands of pictures that I have taken! Cards aren't quite as fun, but I could get lost in the paper aisle at Hobby Lobby!!! Does anyone else scrap? I'd love to see your stuff!
