    Here's a Photo Album cover for pics of my Mom. I used the lovely Powder Blue kit I purchased from the Store and Donna Thomas Shapes.

      ladies thes los are great. Here's mine. We are having a neighbourhood reunion this summer and I'm making a scrapbook on our school. I have pics going back to the 1920's along with the names of the students and teachers. They closed the school in 1961 when they started centralizing all the small hamlets.

      The embellishments came from week 54 challenge freebies.

        Lovely layout Val. What special memories. I love the use of the faded picture in the background.

          That's okay Daydreamer. Jump on in. The water is warm and there are no sharks out today. <wink>

            LOL . . Linda, you're too funny . . . and I agree with Val, ALL these layouts are awesome!!

            Val, I love how you did your title & your colour choice was brilliant! It must've been fun collecting and going through all the old school pics and hearing the stories that go along with them
            Linda, your bird is adorable and your rose just brings out the whole LO!
            FS! Love your colours & choice of background . . . Everything comes together so beautifully to compliment the pic . . . I'm sure she'll treasure your gift always!!
            Thx Dillie . . . I'm always sooo excited to use the new kits as I buy them that I sometimes forget to check back in what I have from SBM . . . Bet there's loads of treasures I've forgotten. . . Will have to go back for a refresher!!

            Been trying to decide what to make a cover for and I think I've finally got it . . . A nephew of mine's turning 21 soon (which reminds me I better get started with his slideshow & digi-album!!), so I think I'll make a CD cover for that . . . Now to choose a fav pic! Always a toughie

              Hi y'all

              This is such an interesting challenge and everyone has come up with something unique.

              I really think the LOs everyone is posting are outstanding - I am off to put my comments in the gallery.

                      Michelle, THANK YOU SSOOO much for that tip on outlining!!! I'd never noticed that before . . . Did you see I started playing with it last night already?!? I think it's a really cool feature, SBM is the coolist!!! I also downloaded the Apple Butter font, can't wait to play with it

                            Hi Daydreamer

                            I think its the first background you see - a plain white box.

                            I wasn't sure what I was supposed to do with it myself, so I put it on the page and then adjusted the page settings to get them the same size before deleting it. There was probably a better way to do it.

                              I clicked on it to show the outline and then Pinned it so the outline stayed visible. I then colored it so it was clear to me exactly where my layout should go. Then I adjusted the page size to get rid of the white on the right and bottom. I'm sure I went about it the long hard way, but that worked for me.. Good luck dear friend. I know you will master it and show us something fantastic.
