Mostly Cooper

Just a few layouts I have worked on recently, these are mostly Cooper, of course I have a backlog of 7 years worth of pictures to work on for him.

First Holidays

I love doing layouts with pictures that show change \ growth over a period of time. The nice thing about having two little ones so close in age, is I can reuse the same format for some of the layouts in their baby books.

More Baseball Layouts

I try to keep up on sports layouts, mainly because I forget who the all of the different kids are about 5 minutes after the season is over.

State Fair Scrapbook Entries - 2008

These are my Iowa State Fair entries in the scrapbook division. I have been entering layouts in fair competition off and on for several years. When I was paper scrapping I won a fair amount of ribbons for my layouts, since I have converted to completely digital scrapbooking, I haven't managed to even get an honorable mention. Not sure if it is because of my skills, or if the judges are a bit "anti-digital", I am thinking of campaigning for a digital category. I would probably be the only one to enter.

Anyway here are my entries:
