Page Exchange Preview

Layout #1
Sorry about the orientation.
I can't seem to figure out how to rotate the image.
Layout #2

I told myself that I was only going to do 1 layout for my upcoming page exchange on Friday. I always do multiples. I couldn't resist and have done 2. What can I say? Doing this helps keep me sane. Plus, Scrapbook Stories is going out of business and I got some killer deals. The theme this time around was "holidays". My holiday was Halloween. My first, original layout is very simple, but it's actually exactly what I was going for. I wanted blocks of color and I wanted it to be simple. I didn't really want it to be overtly, in your face Halloween. I'm really very pleased with it. The second layout I'm growing to like. I bought the paper from Scrapbook Stories based on my lame memory of what I had at home. Never trust Christa's brain. I was trying to coordinate card stock with what I thought I had. I suppose that it works together. It's still simple and not in your face.

They are both really cute! I love that they are not "typical" Halloween pages. I also did 2 layouts this time. I must have a "Christa Bug" right now because I have all of the pages done for the next 2 exchanges and if I would have known the themes for the next 2 after that, they would be done too.

Your pages are cute as always. I wish I had your eye for scrapbooking. I'm a bit of spaz when I do it!!
