Corinne, I just started our books from right now. I haven't gone back and done any real far back ones, esp not ones with pics. actually, most of them are journaling only layouts so far...but some have pics. point is, you could start now and do about you now and then goback later! lol I have all mine posted in a gallery somewhere else if you are interested. just pm me!

I think I'll stick to pages not about me at present! I realise I hadn't done much about keeping family history together, and with my children leaving the nest, I'd missed lots of opportunities to record what they said and did. It never seemed important before. What was more important was daily life, daily family experiences. And years on, my grandparents are gone, my brother is gone, father-in-law too, and so much about them is lost. I want to be able to pass on something about our family before it is too late! My problem is putting things into words, because I have always been an unsentimental kind of person. I am just getting softer as I get older! But if I can express something about my family and our experiences, my family will also learn about me.
Now, that should mean the LO I am doing for Corinne - laughter, giggle, smile... should be easy?! I have done sketches, and sorted out some things, but I am still struggling to settle on something suitable. I am a bit short on photos that show fun things!

Melodi - I know what you mean about family history. That's another project on my list as well. I know it's not easy to journal but once you start it just flows.
I hope you have fun with my page. I know it was difficult to findpictures and depict the emotion of fun and laughter but I tried my best. Can't wait to see what you funny layout you create.

Hello everyone, seems everything's quiet over here, I suppose everyone is busy with their LOs?
I've just finished Bonny's, see it at

BTW, have we got a name yet?

thanks for the awesome layout, Jo! I got a lot done on mine and Jill's tonight. I don't think I'm having a hard time with mine anymore! lol I just needed some inspiration! I just got a great new kit and it helped a lot! lol

I kinda gave up on names, but do we want one? I'm just not creative enough to think of names! lol I like all the ones they've had already, but can't think of any new and original ones. what do you all think?

hey, since I just got back from Disneyland and have a Cinderella tattoo on my hand (I have a two year old! lol) how about Digi Princesses? I know we had wanted digi divas, but that is taken. lol just my silly suggestion to get the ball rolling!

Digi Princess is definitely cool, as are Kate's suggestions.
I don't know what the others think, maybe CJ7 works for everyone.

I'm easy, go with any of the suggestions!
Here's my first LO btw: http://www.scrapbook-bytes.com/galle....php?cat=10259. This is for Corinne...
I had to go through tons of old photos! I don't have very many amusing moments captured at all I found. And some photos that I do remember taking, I can't find! Being new to digi-scrapping, I haven't scanned very many photos yet.
