Inside the Scrapbooks

Now that I have rested my wearly bones, here are the remaining pics of my scrappin marathon!













Here is a closeup of the poem on the last page. My older daughter always ends her books with a closing poem and I "stole" the idea from her. It makes a nice finish to an album.




And one more closeup. This layout tells an extremely condensed version of baby Naomi's brief life. Because some of the family members have small children I didn't want some of the pictures visible when you first open the page. They are very heart wrenching images of her final hours with us. I decided to use our CTMH flip flaps and create a mini-book. I covered the top with an image I duplicated using one of Michelle Zindorf''s cards and techniques. I love following her work and re-creating it for my own use.



And that concludes your tour of my 60 pages in 6 days marathon! Please put your seat backs and tray tables in their fully upright and locked position! LOL.
