Hump Day Craft Post: Disney Scrappin' for a friend
***clears throat and stands*** My name is Kisatrtle and I have never made a scrapbook for a friend before. Scrapbooking is such a personal hobby. What you like, I may not like. What I like, you may totally hate.
And even though I know this, I took a chance and made a scrapbook for a friend. She didn't know about it--it was a surprise. In fact, when I asked her for 100 of her favorite Disney photos, she didn't even flinch. She just said, "Sure." I thought that was a bit of a red flag. "Don't you want to know what I need them for?" I asked. "Nah," she said, "I'm sure whatever you do with them will be fantastic."
No pressure.
I'm happy to say that I had a lot of fun making this book and my friend LOVED it!
I've uploaded a slide show of the album for you to look at minus the faces of my friend and her family. I wasn't sure how she would feel about her family vacation photos floating around in cyberland.

What a great gift for her! That's just SWELL!
I just finished a surprise for my nephew and niece. I scrapbooked their wedding and they will be receiving it on Saturday, so next week I'll be showing some of it on my blog.
Great job!!!
You did a great job. I have made a few scrapbooks for my in-laws and they love them but I can never decide if it's worth the time and freakouts over whether they'll like it!
