Eighteen and a High School Graduate

More pictures from my 18th birthday/high school graduation. I hardly ever make a two page layout, but I didn't really feel like these pictures needed tons more layouts for the rest of the story, so I borrowed the idea of photostacks from Heidi Swapp and finished them out.


I am in love with the Persimmon collection from Basic Grey right now. I bought it a few weeks ago and I think there are four pieces of whole paper left and very few scraps. I have made three pages so far with it and none of them fall or Halloween.  I think these two work well together to be side by side in an album. I made a video so you could take a look at the photostacks, they are so simple, and I really have a good amount of journalling on these layouts.

Here are some closeups from each page:






And here is the video so you can see the photostacks close up:




Thanks so much for taking the time to stop by and have a look.

Flashback... to 18.

So to start the month of being thankful off right, I'm going to post this layout that I made using Basic Grey products from Capture (um look at that awesome acetate film wheel) and also Persimmon. My LSS Scrapbooks Plus had 1 Persimmon kit left and I grabbed it up! I LOVE the colors in this line (um they are all my high school and fav college football team colors. I have some photos from my 20th HS reunion that I think I might scrap with this line as well.
So this is me, at 18. I graduated on my 18th birthday and I so wanted to stop time and stay in high school. I had no idea what I wanted to do with the rest of my life and I felt like things were moving so fast. I love those bg feathers. They come in paper, metallic paper which is thick and canvas with prints from the line added. I added one Thicker in that awesome gold foam and some sprinkling of Heidi Swapp Colorshine spray in Gold Lame' (YUM).
