Finished my first scrapbook of Florida 2010
 

Finished it up yesterday and ordered it right away! :woohoo:
This is just the first 3 days of the trip! :blush: I've made so many pictures that I decided to devide the trip in multiple books.
It would be a pity to take 5000 pictures and just pick 200 of them.

The pages can be found in the gallery here on mousescrappers, but you can also see it as a book on my website: http://www.fioontje-online.nl/fotoboek/

Now on to the next book! :woohoo:

Beautiful book!! I was really inspired by it!

Congratulations! I've enjoyed seeing it progress and can't wait for further volumes. You're doing better than I, I'm still trying to get a book done from 2008.

Wonderful job! Your pages are beautiful. Congratulations on completing it :hooray:.

Great job! I love how you made the double page spreads flow together. I am worried that I am not really paying attention to that as I am creating my pages, but I figure I will worry about that when I am done with all the pages. Any advice on that??

Thanks for sharing your comleted album, I saved the link because it really inspired me!!!

Amazing!! So beautiful, it flows just like a magazine. Great job!

Great book! I mean it, I really do. I love all your journaling!

Thanks everybody, for the amazing compliments!:blush:
Makes me feel great when I get to inspire other people with my layouts!

Amy, tips for letting your pages flow together, ehm... :surf:

Well, I alway work with a list.
Before I start with my book, I alway make a list of the pages I'd like to make. For example, for this book:

This way I know how many pages I'm gonna need for my book and I can decide what colors to use for my layouts. Even when I have different subjects in the layouts that will be next to each other, I can decide what color I can use that fits both subjects.
A list like that can come in handy too when I work in a certain order, but I don't have inspiration for the next layout. I just pick another subject from the list and create a different layout! ;)

I (almost) always use the same background papers to create two-pagers.

And when I want two existing pages (PSD-files) to flow a bit more, I create a new document, 7200 pixels width and 3600 pixels height, add the two pages to it and add some background elements, like ribbons, paper strips, strings, pixie dust, etc. At least that's how I've created some two-pagers before... ;)

I hope this can help you out a little bit...?

Amazing book Fiona, you know I'm always inspired by your pages, and I've learned from you how to make the pages flow in the 2 pagers even when they´re different themes. So far I've seen through page 47, I don't know why it doesn't let me pass from that page, Ill try again later, maybe the site is too crowded!

Congrats for finishing your first Florida 2010 book!!!

Love it!!!

Fiona, you know you are at the top of my list as a "would love to scrap like you" I just love it. I have a shortcut to your books because i look at them over and over to get inspired. Thank you for the tip of how to make a book, i love that, Also, can you please tell me how you are organizing your Kits preview album? I want to imitate that too:whistle:

Great job! Love it!

Your books are amazing! I don't quite understand exactly how you do your double pages that you mentioned earlier. Could you go into more detail? I would love to learn a simpler way of coordinating my pages in the book I am working on. I'm sort of just confusing myself doing the way I'm doing it right now.

Your books always look so perfectly coordinated. Love them!

Wow! Your books are gorgeous!! I just love them! Makes we want to actually finish an entire book! lol! :)

I loved your book. It flows really well and is really well designed. Congrats on finishing it.

I've just finished my second book of Florida 2010!
You can find it on my website: http://www.fioontje-online.nl/fotoboek/
Most of the layouts are also in the gallery including credits and translations, altough I have to upload the last layouts :rolleyes:

I love how your albums are made avialable online. Beautiful job!

Fiona, it is GORGEOUS! So Inspirational!
I have a shortcut to it, for when I need to get inspired.
awesome job!!!

Thanks!
And that's so sweet of you to say Teresa! Glad I can inspire you! :)
