I'm working on a first quarter round up of scrapbooking stuff for a post on my blog so I figured I'd have everyone else do a first quarter check in as well!

So...

I actually love alot that I have done in the last coupe of months, but this one might be my favorite:

I am choosing to skip this one because while I just said I love alot from the past few months, I also have given myself the freedom to not be perfect on every one, b/c I am at least getting my memories recorded!

This question is too hard to answer...I have lots of favorites.

I don't know if it's my best but I love this one.

Maybe not my worst (lol pretty sure it probably isn't) but I'm not totally happy with the way this one turned out.

I didn't buy much, and those things that I did, I can't remember exactly what they were. :giggle

This is prolly my fave page. I like the design, I like my journaling, and I like that its general vibe/mood (at least to me!) is exactly how I wanted it to come out to be.

Not worst, per se, but the page that didn't come out the way I wanted it to at all, and yet I still don't know how to 'fix' it, either. If anyone knows of a cool 26 photo template, let me know!

This is so hard. I love them all or I wouldn't have scrapped with them. But if I had to pick just one favourite, then it must be Build A Set Combo from Jacque Larsen. I used it to scrap a page, make some Valentine cards for my oldest to give out, and each of my kids used the kit to design their own custom Angry Birds "Level" for themselves (which we're printing out to put up on their corkboards). They directed while I drove the mouse in Photoshop.

Everyone at TLP! How can you pick just 3?

This is my favourite page, not sure if it is my best. The photos weren't great with a lot of natural back lighting that I couldn't avoid, but I think I captured this "first" really well:

I would have to pick this one. I can't explain why, but I struggled with this one, I had so many photos I wanted to include, so cutting down to just 2 to represent the Beaver Scout sleepover was very hard for me. I'm also not thrilled with my choice of colour scheme I picked. And I had very little time to get this page together. Too many things competing for my "free" time in real life.

Wow. Anything from the February BYOC is still a huge favorite for me. And I also adore everything about Val's Yarn Snob.

Ummmm hmm. I know I've got a lot of stuff that I love from Amy M., Krista and Val. I can't just pick 3 though! I love every designer I buy from.

I like this page not just for the design but because it reminds me of something that's very important...

This page just didn't come out how I'd envisioned. I think I may even like it better if I changed the background paper.
