I printed off a few of my favorite candid high school photos this week. I thought it would be fun (in all of my spare time) to start an album to keep at the high school for guests to see our colorful daily HS life! Here are a few pages I completed last weekend that I thought you'd enjoy. I was showing my husband these finished layouts; he pointed to this first one and said I should have titled it "higher education." Ha! See why I love him? He's as cheesy as me! (Now if I could only turn him into my scrapbook "assistant.") I don't usually do single photo layouts but this paper was too cute to completely cover up.

I'll begin with one of my favorites...this "shine" card with gold sequins just makes me smile! When it's time to send it, I'll date stamp it on the "Remember" tab. Which super star in my life will I send it to? Show your l-o-v-e with chipboard Scrabble tiles! I love this sunny card with the downy feather, and I adore the "photo strip" embellishment. This black-and-white card is ready for its close-up, Mr. DeMille. This was really fun to create. I love using Glitz Design embellishments--especially the sparkly glass oversized bling! Who doesn't love a good rub-on? This camera is from a Hambly set. I love the quality of these rub-ons but sadly, I don't think they make this product anymore. Another pretty ...
