Scrapbook Starting points :: Our Crafty Halloween
So the bad news is that I fell behind and then I broke the internets. Turns out it takes a lot of effort to break the internets, hence the falling behind. But there is good news: if you can see this (which apparently you can), then I have fixed the internets and this is a happy, happy thing. For the longer the internets remain broken, the further behind one can fall, in this case.
If you followed all my logic right there and only had to read it once to understand, I think I should probably give you a golden ticket and welcome you to my world. Enjoy your adventures here, won’t you?
So back to this scrapbooking stuff! This starting point became the layout above, with papers from the Amy Tangerine collection and embellishments from Nightfall and a photo from last Halloween. (Even if you’re not a Halloween person, you may like Nightfall as an autumn collection. The papers are designs that could go either direction, then they’ve done separate embellishments so you can add on the Halloween-themed things or the autumn-themed things. Just in case you like leaves but not jack-o-lanterns.)
Clockwise from top left: one, two, three and four, all from this starting point.
Here are four of my favourites from all the layouts posted for the last starting point! I may have giggled reading various comments on your posts about how many scraps were layered on that page before a single photo was stuck down! But I promise that giggling was not what broke the internets.
Assuming I can go through the next twenty-four hours without breaking those internets again, there will be a new Camera School post and a sketch video tomorrow!
Now I shall leave you while I calmly repeat to myself, ‘Do not upset the technology. Do not upset the technology.’

So glad to have you back, was begining to wonder where you were, as it’s not like you to post your going to do something then not do it. Let’s hope the internet behaves itself from now on.

I did chuckle reading that, not because you broke something or got behind, but just the way it was all worded, like you had gotten a little bit crazy! Loved it! Wonderful papers too.

Any tips on printing/organizing photos? I even have some pre-scrapbooked pages done without photos! It seems I can’t keep up now that we have digital. Do I have to come back here to check for comments?
