Hey, all!! Here are some of the pages from Connor's lifebook. Please indulge me here...there are several. I'm hoping it will give some folks some ideas for their books b/c I'm not having any luck attaching these to pm's, hehe. Anyway, here's the 1st one. They're not in any order on here-they're all in a different order in his book. But this 1st one I'm posting is part of a section on Guatemala. I did it long before we travelled and left blank journaling places to fill in once we got back. Don't laugh, I'm still learning. But I love it SO much!! I wish I could work in his book more often, but now I do well to work in it twice a week, whereas before he got home it was more like every other day. Oh, well... :rolleyes:

Another 1 of the Guatemala info-
This is 1 I did after we got back. I made 'envelopes' that I could tuck souvenir quetzales currency and coins into. I mounted the coins with the round stick-ums on the back to the 'envelopes', those are the bottom right, smaller envelope. No, didn't mount the currency bills-but just laid them in the envelopes and tucked the flaps over. I also bought a couple of small banners at the airport in GC to use.
Please excuse the nasty flash glare.
This page was fun! Still with the Guatemalan background theme (they have some beautiful paper out there!), I made a 'folder' at the bottom left and tucked our plane tix in there. On the outside of the folder I mounted our boarding passes. On the top left, I used clipart to print a pic of a world & map, kind of a 'where in the world is guatemala' thing. Course, the bottom right is me & Connor on the way home. The planes and other stickers/embellishments are store bought. And as always--lots of journaling here! Detailing our plane ride.

I love your pages. The Guatemalan themed ones are so creative and the yellow/blue pages of him are really sweet! I just went to a scraping party this last weekend, so after that and seeing your pages, I'm geared up. Until a few nights ago I hadn't touched mine in over a year, due to building a house, having babies and such.
