One photo. It's not just for 1-page layouts.



Yes, that is just one teeny photo on this two page layout. If I wouldn't have had that picture I still would have done a layout. This is a page that is more about the story, not the pictures. That doesn't seem to happen very often in scrapbooking since it's traditionally a combination of the two that tells the story, usually supporting each other and telling what the other can't.

Of course, because I'm a 2-page girl at heart, I couldn't let the fact that I just had this one picture push me into doing a 1-page layout. And in usual Allison fashion, I just had way too much to say.

The reason I didn't use any ultrasound photos on this layout is mainly because I've got a whole other layout planned out for those. I did try to use some memorabilia on this layout by cutting one of my appointment cards into a heart. I didn't end up getting as much info in the heart shape as I wanted but, oh well. It'll do.

I don't know if I'll get any more time this week to blog or not since I leave for CKC on Thursday. I might try to squeeze one more in before I go! :)

Good luck in KC (close to my hometown). I wish my schedule would have allowed me to take one of your classes. I love the layout, especially the journaling. I was in the store yesterday and the layouts are even better than on your blog. Thanks for sharing your pages - love them! Linda from KS
