Better late then never

I promised a favourite 10 layouts of 2008 post a long time ago. Well here are six from 2008 and a few new ones for 2009. I hate taking pictures of my layouts. I really need to just take a picture after I am finished creating them and before it gets into an album. Once it's in the album I really don't feel like touching it again.

Midsummer Nights Dream - I miss Amy so much. Good friends are irreplaceable, and I haven't been able to find any close girlfriends in Toronto like I had in Chicago. I can't wait for Tara to take pictures of Amy and I in March.


City Gals - Another Chicago friend. Aren't all my Chi-town friends absolutely friggin gorgeous. For reals...


Beautiful Boy - Inspired by the Ben Harper song that I love so much and is on frequent rotation in Rowan's room.


Pretty Leaves - If I really love the picture, the layout is going to end up being really simple and straight forward. I love this picture of Rowan sitting in our front yard eating leaves while James was raking them.


Guilty as Charged - I love to capture and document moments that have become part of our everyday lives. Lola gutting stuffed animals happens on a regular basis.


Operaman - My little guy has found his lungs.


Krabi - I adore this picture that Tara took of me in Krabi. So, I had to find all my favourite scrapping supplies of the moment to document this time of my life. I love the Crate Paper!


D - One by one I am scrapping my favourite pictures of all my Thailand friends. I have to pick the perfect papers and embellishments though, so I haven't gotten them all finished yet. Blogspot is rotating this picture incorrectly...


Bliss - I like this one bunches. I am really digging using Kraft cardstock as my background lately. It really punches up the photo.


And I'm spent! I live for Austin Power's quotes. I hear he is working on a new movie....
