Anniversary Album


Together with my sister, I created a scrapbook album to give to our parents for their long awaited anniversary trip. We planned the album with some very specific things in mind.

1. The album was to be completely finished. All that Dad & Mom would need to do was to adhere pictures. This meant we even penciled in where the pictures were to go and their exact size...along with tips on what types of pictures to use.

2. The highlight of the album needed to be the pictures and the memories of the trip...so we stayed away from the bright colours and the very obvious travel themed papers & embellishments. All in all we had a lot of fun and were quite happy with the finished result.

We tried to think through a typical holiday and the types of things that are the usual highlights as well as a few of the more evryday holiday memories. We hoped that htis would end being an album that told the whole story of the vacation.


Although my parents vacation didn't quite go as planned, there were still some very good things that happened as a result...like a surprise visit from them!


Products used: Basic Grey papers, Heidi Swapp Chipboard and a lot of misc. stuff from my stash
