Forever Young Birthday Card

I made the following card for a dear soror friend of mine. Three guesses which sorority! Had a few issues with the glue towards the end, but all in all I'm fairly pleased with the result. I really do need to cut down my cardmaking time though. I think this one took me four hours!!! One of my goals is to really finetune my design process. Ooops....oh yeah...first I have to HAVE a design process. Okay, so THAT'S my goal! Thanks for looking.

Some of My Favorite Layouts

So...still too new to blogging to know what the protocol for posts is...can I do more than one post in a day? Technically though, since it's past midnight...I guess I can post away. Since I'm in the process of building this new blog and moving things from my other page, I just thought I'd share a small collection of some of my favorite layouts that were posted on my old page. I believe that all of the layouts below are based on sketches by Cathy Zielske, one of my favorite BigPictureScrapbooking.com teachers and designers.

Pages From My Sorority Scrapbook

I am on the scrapbook committee for my chapter of Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Inc. My job this year was to design all of the section title pages. I had approximately a month to get all of the pages done and these are a few of the layouts that resulted.

Mom's Birthday Card

I made this card for my mom whose 74th birthday was on April Fool's Day. The inside reads "You make being youthful look so easy! I want to be just like you when I'm (fill in an age, any age)! Happy Birthday!
