    Talking a few examples of my books

    here's a few examples of my books.

    First is an example of my christmas book. I took smooth slightly shiny cardstock and scrapped on those, with paper backgrounds etc. then once i was finished my pages, i put them in order went to the office supply store (in my case Office Depot) nearest to me and had it bound.

    here's a vacation one i did in the same manner. While on vacation, you can find all sorts of interesting things to scrap...in my case I LOVE postcards, so i picked some up at teh gas statins we stopped at to keep a picture record of our driving trip. an itinerary is nice to keep too.

    the pages that i am not worried about, i laminated. so the kids could touch and not be too worried about. the ones with the actual pics probably shouldn't be laminated. have no idea how the pages would react over time to the lamination.

    here's the "interactive" part... for another pic of the kids posing in a similar fashion at a different park, lift up the frame to reveal the pic underneath
