It's anniversary #33 for hubby and I; I spent it in bed with a cold while my better half worked all day. Really romantic, eh?
Thankfully I felt well enuf tonight to get up ... we're spending a quiet evening in front of the tv and exchanging home made presents - I never thought he'd go for the "make it ourselves" idea, but I was really surprised to receive two of my favourite photos together in a frame. (I love all of his photos, but I didn't think he paid any attention when I was admiring these two several weeks ago.) Huh, after all these years, he can still surprise me!
In return, I used all MY photos from our road trip last year to make him a 2010 calendar with My Digital Studio - it was so easy! I had it printed through Stampin' Up's printing service and it really turned out well. Here are a few of the pages ...
***************************************
Amherst, NS Page:
The circle of words is a stamped image that I made larger, then I layered it under the photo to hide the bottom half of the phrase because it didn't suit the layout.
***********************************
************************************
Beach Combing Page:
I matted all of the photos in "Basic Grey" and made all of the stamped images and journalling text in "Brocade Blue" throughout the calendar to give it continuity.
***********************************
Covered Bridge Page:
I used the Opacity feature to lighten the stamped images wherever the journalling overlapped, so that the words could still be read easily.
