Travel With Me Tuesday: The CA Trip is a Wrap part 1

AAM Thursday: December Daily Final

And that's a wrap!

Travel With Me Tuesday - Hello California

These pages were done via Lightroom Templates and will be very simple. I just wanted to get these photos done and on their way to the printer.  Page 1 gives you an idea of the amount of embellishment I'm going to add.The white places show where either journaling will go or a card/embellishment. I'm still learning how to work with these templates so it's a work in progress!

I wasn't even interested in doing a lot of work with the photos IN Lightroom because many of the days were overcast or rainy and I felt pretty darn sick myself. That's just how it goes sometimes.

TBT: New Pajamas for Christmas 1972

My Nana always made me, and then us, pajamas for Christmas. This was the last set she made as she died on December 28 that year...1972...and never saw this photo of us back in the film and print days. True to form, she left a few basting pins in my husband's set. I don't know that she did it intentionally, but she did it often! I wish I had that nightgown now. It was full length and so so cozy.

December Daily 9, 10, 11

These pages are nicely filling up my PRINT folder. Getting things done feels really good.

December Daily 6, 7 and 8

I really want to get most of this done before Christmas. For that reason, I think that this year it's going to end on Dec 25, more or less. It all depends on my mood and a couple of other things.

TBT Back in the 60s

Ah it's TBT so what should I throw back to??? How about 1966/67? After coming up to MD to visit our families, we drove back to San Angelo TX either just after Christmas or just after New Years. Fortunately, the car was parked going down the hill as there was no way of getting UP the hill in the snow. This is the automatic VW that that man traded for a stick shift VW while I was in the hospital having son #1. That's another story...

Wordless Wednesday: Vive La France!

December Daily Day 5

If I allow just over an hour to do one of these I'm good. But somehow there are bits and pieces that take longer than I'd like. Such is life but I still managed to get a pedicure and take my car to the dealer AND get it back. That's big stuff accomplished.

First is the intro page as all binders have that one page at the beginning which is a single page.

Then this is what day 5 looks like when they are together. I'm going to print the left side as two 4x6s and then cut them for the pockets.

That tree bokeh shot is one made using the Camera+ app. I read the tutorial on line but I know not where. I'll have to test it out again on my phone as the only thing I recall is you use the macro setting in Camera+.
