Are my albums chronological? Yes. By year. I'm totally cool with that. If something is abstract (for example: then vs. now, why I love my mom, how our place is decorated), then that page is categorized by the most recent pictures on the page, or if there is extensive journalling that represents more recent thoughts or emotions, then the page gets categorized based on the date the journalling was written. I do this since each page represents a snapshot in time: either literally or as a snapshot of my thoughts. For me, this is the easiest, most consistent method of organization.
And back to the point of this post: this page is of an event in Spring/Summer 2006. The colors go nicely with those from the Play Date Cafe's challenge [link left, image below]. Very wintery like bare tree limbs and antiqued neutrals. I went very simple with a clean grid in a window.

Very beautiful page! Love to see the other pages of your 2006 spring/summer album!
ReplyDeleteOf course you would be insanely well organized even in scrapbooking! How far back do your scrapbooks go?
ReplyDeleteThis page is really pretty. I love the soothing colors, many of which are right outside my window as the leftover ice/snow has given everything the same blue-ish white glow. Hope you're enjoying your weekend!
You sound really organised. Lovely LO, the colours work really well with your image. Thanks so much for playing along with us over at The Play Date Cafe!
ReplyDeleteSuch a beautiful take on our color story, and I adore the way you were able to tie so much texture into a layout! Thanks so much for playing along with us this week at The Play Date Cafe!
