Have you scrapbooked your April?
Funny how you can start the new year with such good intentions and then it gets harder each month, right? But with Document:2010, I am really trying to remember that idea of living first, scrapbooking second. And so far, I am still getting the pages created, so it seems to be working, even if I can’t really get them done on the first day of each new month.
This month most of my supplies came from the Poppyseed collection by K&Company, with two sheets of letter stickers – green from October Afternoon and a great new bold pink from My Little Shoebox. I love how the sizes of those two alphabets work together in the 4×6 spaces.
So far I’ve finished the divided pages for April and I just have the finishing touches to add on the two remaining layouts that finish the monthly summary. So I’ll post those very soon! These divided pages include lunch with Leanne, Maxwell & Laura, a celebration of blue springtime skies, painted eggs for Easter, a day at the pub for the Grand National, a fleeting visit to the Eden Project, time at the seaside, a work trip to Germany, my love of the Hipstamatic iPhone app, the shimelle.com scrapbook party weekend and a sunny day spent hiking at Cheddar Gorge. (By the way, I didn’t forget about that scrapping with Hipstamatic post – I’ll get it online this week!)
If you’re documenting this year, chat and share the process here at UKScrappers!
If you happen to finish your pages for April by the end of this Thursday, they would also fit this week’s challenge to scrapbook a month in review! (And one participant in each week’s challenge wins a gift certificate there so that’s a little extra push to finish and post your pages.)
So tell me: what one word summed up your April 2010?
