A Scrapping Weekend

I was able to complete two spreads this weekend and I am pretty happy with how they both turned out. The "Eggs to Dye for" spread took longer than I had hoped because I originally had completely different paper picked out. I just kept starring at it trying to figure out how I would lay everything out. It just wasn't working with the patterned paper I had so I changed to a solid color and all of a sudden things started working out. For the eggs on this spread I actually used MS Word's clip art to print out those easter eggs onto picture paper since I didn't have any easter egg stickers or embelishments.

I love how the "Sunday Brunch" spread turned out. I think the wood paper works well with these photos especially because of the wood burning fire place at this very small place. I also think I sort of captured the feel of sunday brunch on this spread with the polka dot paper and the swirly ribbon. It sort of reminds me of old tablecloth or something.
