Okay. I have one last layout to do to finish the album of Ian's first year. Since he turns seven in just a few months, I'm pretty excited to finally have it finished. LOL.

These are the last pics that I need to scrap (just a screenshot). I love them so much! I've actually scrapped them before, but I've never been completely happy with the outcome, and since I love the photos so much, I really want to love the layout. So, any kit suggestions?

I would turn them black and white, and use them with pretty much anything! I have a terrible time scrapping with primary colors...
Maybe Meg Mullen's Wonderful Life? Or Lauren and Shawna's Live for Every MOment. https://www.sweetshoppedesigns.com/sweetshoppe/product.php?productid=20643&cat=0&page=1

The first one that came to mind for me was Recess by Heather Roselli, but it must be retired cause it is not in the shop.

Here is a playground themed one:

Thanks gals! These are all great suggestions. I'm considering all of them. I think I need to sketch out the layout first so that I know what kind of elements I really want. Then, I'll come back and think some more. :) If anyone has more suggestions, keep 'em coming!

And, Elizabeth - yes, he is such a doll. He has a very expressive face, even now, and his shiny eyes and sweet smile just light up my life. He is a sweet kid, for sure. :wub:

Just thought I'd post the completed layout here. I realized that this kit by Julie and Eva was perfect, and I already had it in my "To Use" folder. So, yay! I love the way it turned out. :) And, now Ian's 1st year pages are all done and ready to print - just in time to take advantage of the Pernickety sale!!! Woot!

Here's the kit:

Turned out amazing!!! Congrats on completing the album :thumbup: I'm such a random scrapper, I don't even want to know how much I have left for any of the girls' 6 years so far....

I'm a completely random scrapper too. That's why it has taken me this long to get his first year done. I do an album for each kid's first year. After that, everything all goes together by calendar year. And, I just use ring binders for those albums so I can print what I have and add it to the album anytime I want. That way I don't have the stress of "finishing" an album before I can print it.
