Yesterday and Today Layout One

Taking a class with Ali Edwards and Tim Holtz are definitely on my bucket list, which is why I signed up for Ali's Yesterday and Today class at Big Picture Classes. I will be working with old and new photos and writing the stories about yesterday and today.

What struck me while working on this page was:
  • how each of the photos invoked so many thoughts and memories
  • how each photo has a story to tell
  • how much I loved my joy at being in a tub full of water at 2 1/2
  • how much I still love the water today
  • how much of my personal history is in the details of the photograph
I've been doing digital scrapbooking for about two years. For me a hybrid page is filling in a template, printing it off and adding a few embellishments. Ali's way was different. I started with the photos; making a photo strip and the larger photos. They were printed and added to a 12x12 page along with the words and embellishments. I liked the process and can't wait to do other pages.
