Summer Days

I went to Jill's house to scrap again last week. She was making a mini album with the Summer Days Simply Scrappin' kit. I was drooling over the paper! When she was done with her mini album (very cute and quick to make!) she had some patterned paper and stickers still left from the kit. So I made this 12x12 layout for her!
I added some of my Flower Fusion and some of her Rhinestone Brads but everything else came from the kit!
I made her promise to take some pics of her adorable girls at their swim lessons to finish the page! We made another page together. I will have to show ya next week!

Last night I ordered the kit for myself! I just HAD to have it!!!

I have received many inquiries as to why I do not do more 2 page layouts and so I am putting my response here for everyone to see. I love 2 page layouts! I love 1 page layouts! I used to only scrap 2 pagers. But I found it tough. I often had trouble filling the second page. I LOVE big titles so the first page was always a breeze. So in my early scrapbooks- I love the first pages and am not happy with the 2nd page. So I finally gave up the rule that I had set for myself. Now I get more scrapping done! If a 1 page layout comes to me- I go with it! Some people say that they just have too many pics to do one page layouts. Personally- I don't scrap all my pics. (I take about 500-600 per month.) But I also find it quicker sometimes to make two 1 page layouts than to make a 2 page layout. It just depends on my inspiration! And honestly- I am having so much more fun scrapping! So tell me what you gals think. Do you do 1 page layouts or 2 page layouts or a combination of both?
