Why is it that some layouts go 1-2-3-done and others you can dither and get frustrated on? This is one of those for me... most of the layout was 1-2-3 done but when it came to doing my journalling... boy-oh-boy did I get frustrated!! Between deciding the "how much" to include, to "what format to put it in"... dithered with a matchbook type thing, a brad-ed booklet and finally (after 2 hours!) settled on a few choice details typed on a flat sheet and mounted... ugh! Even my printer was giving me grief... printing skew so I had to print the journaling (in it'a many forms) about 4 times before fixing the printer... so here's the layout....
It was Aaron's birthday party in 2007... a fun day with a slip 'n slide, magic show, pass the parcel and lots of pressies... I managed to combine all that on to one layout... used 36 photos!!! I'm sure that is a record even for me who loves multi-photo layouts!
After all this frustration yesterday to do the journalling (in amongst the voting saga), I decided I just had to scrap another page... so started one at 9:30 last night... just need to do the title and journalling on that too... but you might not get to see it yet as I'm thinking of entering it into
PageMaps competion.

Stunning layout and great that you were able to use so many photos. I am sure you felt it was worth all the stress you had in getting it finished!!
Cathy, this is just gorgeous. I agree 36 must be some kind of record. You are so right that its so amazing how certain creations just tend to frustrate whilst other just flow into its final glory. Hugs from Desire
