How I use my template albums

[LynnG]

I have a big list of template albums on sale today for Cyber Monday and while I was doing my newsletter it occurred to me how lucky I am to do what I do. My DH and girls LOVE the travel albums and multi-photo layouts best of all, and we have a big shelf of albums of them. So I wanted to share some examples of how I use the templates (which are half price today) myself.

The Sharpshooter album is great for lots of photos of events or outings

I used this for the photos of when I stumbled on the crowds heading to a rugby match which doubles as a fancy dress party

But I also used it to scrap my parents' trip to Singapore. They only had a cheap point and click camera but I was really pleased with the way the album turned out (they always give me their vacation photos to scrap!)

One of my all-time fav albums are the Merge in Style sets:

I've used these for a 'week in the life' set of pages, as well as some family heritage pages and even collage pages:

The Woodville Album was great for scrapping the intro pages to a trip we took last year

The What We Did album makes getting lots of photos onto a spread really easy. What did we do? We went texture hunting in the nearby islands of New Caledonia ...

And sometimes you just want to get To the Point (oof .. sorry for the bad pun )

I used this for the "summer of the Cicadas" - scrapping a long, hot summer here in new Zealand (the cicada pics my DD took, she loves them)

And Scrap the Lot does what it says on the tin

I have used these SO much, but most recently for some time we spent in France.

The Big Fade templates are great for when you have BIG photos.
I used them for a beachy weekend and some other fav pics of DD when she was little

Plus, Sir Peter Jackson created a World War One museum just down the road from our house!

And I was so, so lucky to spend a couple of days in Barcelona for my birthday (well, actually I was sick but choose to gloss over that - and I still managed to take lots of pics!)

I used the Messy Pockets: Noted templates

Thanks for indulging me as I went down memory lane.

I love, love, love this hobby

That's such a great round up! Loved this post (puns , cicadas & all!) Thanks for highlighting this store special _ I need to do more multi photo pages like this & just get some albums finished Sounds like these are good for power scrapping like @Karen chatted about the other week too !

Thank you Lynn, those are incredible pages. I'm going to have a play with the Merge in Style sets.

I am using your albums - and actually mix and matching the different styles for my Ireland book! Love, love love your album templates Lynn. They make the process fast and are beautiful bc they are so photo centric - which is what I love for travel books. I like that I can add as much or as little details/elements to the pages.

If you have books to finish people ... highly recommend these album templates that are on sale today! Scoop them up while you can!

You are right I know but it's just so easy to fall into the trap of always been the one wielding the camera!
