Before I get on with a few hours of work, I thought I'd finally share some pics of my January album entries. So difficult to get decent photos of your pages in pocket scrapping without taking it all out, but for ease this time I photographed everything in the pockets and I'm not so bothered about the photos - they're of nothing particularly exciting or thrilling. Just the day-to-day... the things that made me happy in January feature a lot (I do love pics of inanimate objects it has to be said). ;o)
Anyway, here we go - five pages is probably a bit much for one month, but hey, I was just finding my feet in this whole pocket scrapping thing. ;o)
Page 1 - all about New Year's day - it involved a lot of walking from morning through to the afternoon:
I'm using the desktop calendar I received for Christmas from my mum as the monthly feature across the year. Very handy, and nice to be able to keep the calendar some how. I've done this before with mini-albums documenting a year so carried it over to my 2014 album.
While Lola was staying we still managed a nice walk or two even though I was working from home:
Very glad to have finally found a use for this little lady - not that I bear any resemblance to her, but it's nice to use up all the left-overs from a chipboard set some how:
I used journaling cards for all the entries on this page:
I even resurrected some very old Making Memories tags which will get used throughout the rest of this album no doubt!
Page 4 was all about the things that made me happy in January:
Including finally unpacking the lovely Orla bedding set I bought in TK Maxx last year:
And the last page is something I hope to feature every month - a record of movies seen, books read, that kind of thing:
Can't believe I only read one book in January - February will be a very different matter!
Loving your album, can I ask how you print your photos? Do you print at home if so what printer do you have?
Thanks in advance Janet x
