Final Two Alaska Layouts

Here's my last two layouts from our trip.  I can't express how happy I was to get this album done.  I loved how easy it was in Studio J!  I don't think I'll ever scrapbook vacation photos any other way.  

Alaska Views using the Tommy Kit

Our animal friends

Don't forget the Studio J special, $5 layouts, lasts until March 15th.  Go here to check it out!

Circus Time on the Cruise

The boys participated in the kids' circus, which was a lot of fun.  These layouts use the Animal Cookies kit.

A few more Cruise Layouts

The Studio J special has been extended until March 15th, so you still have time to get $5 layouts!  Here's a few more from our Alaska Cruise, using the Tommy paper.

Victoria, B.C. Studio J Style

 Victoria was the boys' favorite stop of the cruise.  We definitely want to go back there someday.  I was sad we never made it to the gardens.

All of these layouts were  made with the Travel Express Kit.  So easy and beautiful.  I love all the playful shapes and patterns.  THe third one, especially, would be difficult to duplicate as a paper layout.

Don't you love that night time shot?  Austin took it!

Glacier Bay Studio J Layout

These are two of my favorite layouts from the trip.  The photos were already gorgeous, but I love how the colors of the Wonderland papers play off them perfectly.  

Have you tried Studio J , yet?

Happy Birthday, Austin!

I don't know whether to celebrate or cry!  Today my oldest is 11 years old!  Where has the time gone?? That can't be right! 

When did this adorable little guy

2012 AAU Basketball

As sad as it makes me that you are growing up, Austin, I'm am loving seeing the wonderful person you are becoming.  I love you!  

I'm looking forward to going back to work today--finally!  It will be a fun week because it's Hallissey week!  That's our big basketball tournament for 7th and 8th graders.  We have events every day leading up to it.  Plus this weekend will be a four day weekend filled with basketball and sleepover for Austin and his friends.  

In honor of Austin, I'm taking a break from Alaska layouts and sharing a couple Studio J layouts that are older photos of my boys.  Enjoy!

Skagway and on Board Ship Studio J Layouts

Skagway was our least favorite, only because we didn't book any excursions, and there wasn't a lot to do there.  On top of that, Austin got hurt goofing around, and we had to go back to the ship.  Crazy boy!  Victory papers again--this time using the tans and yellows more than the blue and green.

These next tow layouts use the NEW Tommy papers.  With a nautical theme, they are PERFECT for cruise photos.  I used them for most of our on board pictures.  

Even out at sea, the boys had the opportunity to play build with Legos.  They had a family ship building activity.  Perfect.
