Laptop Wallpaper : 2019 Travelers


I designed something a little different this afteroon ... a wallpaper for my laptop.

I used pieces from both Katie Pertiet Designs Mapping Adventures LT No. 2 and LT No. 4 to make my laptop wallpaper. I'd already made a scrapbook page using the templates so it was a quick and easy alteration to make the laptop wallpaper. Geez ... you've got to love the ease of digi scrapping!

Happiness in a Cup : My collection of travel cups



I've been meaning to scrap a page to document how much I love my collection of coffee cups from places we've traveled. Today I finally got around to it & that makes me happy!

2018 Family Album : Front & Back album covers & intro pages


My 2018 family albums are now complete and I am most definitely doing a happy dance! These are the album covers to the two books as well as the simple layout for the back album cover.

NOTE: I always split my yearly family albums into two books ... one for January-June and one for July-December with each book being about 120 pages this year. At this point all that's left is the assembly of the books in Lightroom for printing at Blurb Books! (And waiting for another Blurb coupon since the last coupon expired yesterday ... bummer!) :)





I usually use my album covers as in the intro page to the books. While, for consistency year to year, I need the title "A Year in the Life of the Unzen Family" on the cover ... I don't need that on the intro page ... so I took it off. I actually like it better without the title, BUT it needs to be on the cover so it's there! :)

It's the Little Things ...

I'm finishing up my last page or two for my 2018 album (although maybe I'll make a couple more vacation recap pages - hmmm?). I saw a layout like this in a magazine the other day and when I saw it I thought it'd be a fun design to highlight random little bits and pieces of life that down the road will be fun to look back on! I'm kinda excited about it!
