Card Crazy

I mentioned in the previous post about getting sidetracked - well, that was due to getting into a card making frenzy. I didn't confine myself to any single technique - PCS (personal cutting system) machine; digital photo/scrapping techniques, color blocking, stamping, you name it!

Everyday Stories - Pictures

I got sidetracked from creating my Australia Trip album - but more on that later! Using the Everyday Stories (EDS) system, I:

• went thru the photos, sorted and grouped them
• slotted the pictures into various page configurations
• added paper (used Piggy Tales Red Riding Hood, Bazzill Basics, and Stampin' Up)
• did some computer research on the locales (it has been 20 years!)
• created some titles w/ the Wishblade

and here are a few of the results - I apologize for the quality of the photos - clearly, I'll have to redo some of these.

Picture 1 - the Big Merino - we found this while driving from Sydney to Canberra -- complete with a wool museum and shop.

Picture 2 - The Sydney Opera House - need I say more?

Picture 3 - Barrier Reef.

DC Tidal Basin - April 3

It's a good thing we went down to DC last Tuesday, because we got a cold front the next day! We were extremely lucky to see the cherry blossoms at peak. There will be some scrapbook pages coming from this trip - and some of my photos will decorate cards and even scrapbook paper!
