Scrapbooking class!

So I wanted to find a way to simplify my scrapbooking while still having it look the way I wanted. So after a recommendation of a friend (Brenda) I bought Photoshop Elements. She also told me about a class online that really helped her learn the program. So I was bored last week and decided to sign up for the class. I felt really guilty for doing this because I usually don't buy much without talking to Brian first. I wasn't going to tell him at first because I knew he would think that it was a stupid thing to do. But then my conscience got the better of me and I told him. At first he thought I was stupid but let me tell you he thinks that it is the best $45 I have spent in a while. I am actually doing something with it, instead of buying scrapbooking supplies and watching them collect dust. He is actually supportive of it now. I am really enjoying doing my scrapbooking on my computer and actually getting some pages done. So in my class we are told to share our pages with friends and relatives. I wasn't going to do this but I decided I would show off a few of them. I am having so much fun doing this and am on track with my goal by completing at least 1-2 pages a day. (let me tell you that is a lot for me since I have only done like 5 pages total for all 3 boys YIKES!!!)




Let me know what you think. It has been fun doing them and I am ready to start the next class. I think I will ask Brian first this time :)

Wow. I'm Amazed. You've definitely got some talent,and I wish I had some of it! I'm the same way with scrapbooking. I have the stuff, but it never gets done. The last time I scrapbooked anything was when Kenzie was a baby, and she's almost 3 1/2 now! Anyways, I'm jealous now, so maybe I'll have to take one of those scrapbooking classes one of these dyas.

Totally cute!!!! Good job! My husband thinks scrapbooking is evil...so...needless to say I plan in printing off the blog, but that's probably about as far as I'm going to get:) I love the pages you made!

Nice work! My scrapbooking stuff is still in the collecting dust stage. I need to get back into it, thanks for getting me motivated!
