I'm obsessed with scrapbooking. Not the traditional style but digitial scrapbooking. I tried that paper, scissors and tape stuff but I just didn't have the patience. (I feel your pain, Dawn)
Patty's Creative Memory consultant , Pam Winn, kept pushing me toward digital scrapbooking but I resisted.
Wouldn't it cut into my online poker playing? Come on. I'm a guy, we all play poker online.
Then it happened. BAM!!!
This February we spent a weekend scrapbooking with Pam and another 75 women at her annual Seaside Beach Retreat. Most of them were busy cropping photos, making title blocks and journaling. I tried but it just wasn't working for me.
One woman had her laptop and she was composing pages like everyone else. She didn't have a dozen bags full of papers, pictures, tools, stickers and blank album pages. All she needed was her laptop.
I watched her and asked a TON of questions. Her pages were beautiful and creative. I knew then that this is the kinda scrapbooking I could get behind.
I bought the Creative Memories software ( 20% discount because it was my birthday) and when we got home I loaded it on my computer.
Instantly another scrapbooking addict (the digital kind) was born.
Tonight I finished my 4th layout and am already looking forward to the next one.
There, I've said it. I'm addicted to digital scrapbooking and not ashamed of it. Where will it all end?
These pages tell the story of a road trip we took last June to Stevenson, Washington. We spent a long weekend at an RV park. We did some sightseeing in Hood River and White Salmon, stayed up late around the campfire roasting marshmellows and did some whitewater rafting in the White Salmon river. Tons of fun and only 50 miles from home. Remember gas was going for $4.00 a gallon. Hope you enjoy the layouts.

Yes....that was a fun trip. The park was barely occupied and it was SO DARK there at night! I'm hoping we can book another trip to Timberlake this summer. It's so easy and fast to get there...
Oh...I forgot.
The scrapbook layouts look FABULOUS!!!
That's the coolest thing ever! I bet those pages could make even a lame vacation look 'smarvelous! Not that yours was lame. I'm just saying--we do staycations, but with the right scrapbook page, we could look like we were in Paris. Woo hoo!
Love the post!

Love everything.
