So progress is being made! I like that you did a mental assessment as a first step in your son's album. When I remember to do that, I am often pleasantly surprised how little it will take to finish up a project. (This happens with knitting, too.) And then it becomes, as you say, "doable." I had...

I've been relying heaving on the templates, and also every few days I make it a point to work on a page or a spread with my morning coffee. Gives me a sense of forward motion! ;)

I love that idea and I do have my personal MegaBooks. But I also do gift books--like documenting the annual family vacation, which turns into four copies for a Christmas present for each family, and also individual baby/kid books, and sometimes I start a new book in the same way I cast on a new...

Excellent Lego-Mania portrayed here!

Another page for the Adirondack section of one of my many WIP albums, from our trip last year. We visit the Adirondack Mountains annually and I'm trying to finish up 2023 before the next trip rolls around in 2024. Does anybody else feel like they have too many albums going on? Every year we...

Love how you used Santa and his banner on this spread.

I like the scale of the photo--it really conveys the power of those first steps!

Ah, your mystical hat is on again, and you know how I love your moody designs. Beautiful! Congrats on that GSO!

That face! Great documentation! I'm seeing major changes from week to week at 14 mos with my youngest grand. Slow down, I say!

Loving this!

Delightfully fresh and bright and you might just have solved my transition problem on a spread I'm working on with the paper texture--we'll see how it translates. I liked your journaling--there's a while spectrum of "caregiving," isn't there?

I'm exactly the same with yarn to feed my knitting obsession!

So cute! Beautiful diagonal movement.

AWWWWWW! Cutie!

Love the transition of the hat to the water (just like everybody else). You do freeform so well!

Love this because you've taken a slice of life and elevated it through storytelling and imagery. Beautifully done!

Smart move to buy the watercolors--with any luck you will have Olaf AND a painting. The vertical paintbrush is a delightful touch.

Love the flow of images on this page.

Love that background! Gives a snowglobe effect! The light is so pretty, too.

As pretty as a picture. Love the white space!
