I want to put a quick thank-you album together for my son's Cub Scout den leader. They will be crossing over to Boy Scouts in a week and nobody has done anything about a gift. We started talking about it a couple of months ago, but never really decided anything. So, this morning I decided to make a mini-album. I'm just going to put one photo of each boy in it, with the facing page being a thank-you note from that boy. I could digi-scrap the pages, but I have a ton of cub scout paper from my paper scrapping days and I'd love to use it up, so I decided to do the album in paper.

Well, I'm finding that I'm totally spoiled by digi :). I caught myself thinking about resizing one of the papers and flipping another horizontally - totally doesn't work that way with paper supplies :p. I <3 the flexibility of digi!!

LOL, Darcy!

One thing I hate about paper projects is how much paper you waste and how quickly you run out of the ones you need. Drives me nuts!!!!! Good luck on your album!

What's the saying "once you go digi you never go back". lol. :) I tried to paper scrap a few times but it just didn't feel right anymore. I kept thinking that "Well how am I going to add shadows?". LOL.

Ah... yes. I know that feeling! I give up. I let my daughter use my paper supplies.

I've given most of my paper supplies to the art teacher at my son's school and to the MOPS group at church, but I still had the cub scout papers and figured that it would be easier (and thriftier) to use them than to print out my digi supplies. ;)
