I had to share that i am finally finished with my first offical book

[Merandab4]

Hi All,
I finally have completed my first official scrapbook.
I have done a few 12x12 pages, but have never finished a whole book.
This book is an 8x8 of my Cinderella themed bridal shower. It's not as great or creative as lets say hmmm....Patty T's, or DisneyFreak Jackie (I love these ladies work...lol) But hey, it's my first one.
Now I can finally pick up all the scraps that have been laying around my computer room for weeks, no months!
I'd like to share it with you. Any tips for scanning? Should I upload to twopeas?

Congratulations! ISn't hat a greta feeling? DOn't worry about not being a creative expert. The key is that your photos made it to a book where your will look at them and enjoy them over and over. The only tip I have is to not try to be lazy like I am and take the page protectors off (if you used them) before scanning.

I cannot wait to see them!

Well, I tried to scan, but it didn't come out right for me. Either the color was so light, or I it would not scan the whole page, ( I don't understand why, I mean the page fits perfectly on the scanner)

I have resorted to photographing the pages, so it may take me a while to get the pages up, but I promise I will get them up!

Judith, it has taken me all summer to just do this one itty bitty book, I think that was challenge enough for me, but thanks for the offer !

Thanks everyone.
I've tried both scanning and taking photographs of the pages and nothing is working. They are a tad blurry and the color is just too dull. Although I've tried to adjust the color manually on my computer, its just not coming out the true color. My scans and photos are not doing the pages justices so I am afraid it may be a while till I get to share them with you all. Sorry!

Yeah you! Isn't that the best feeling? Do you have plans for your next book? I always have a new idea waiting in the wings because I love to beable to go and sit at my scrapbook table whenever time permits.
