Default Can't say thank you enough...

I just wanted to say THANK YOU!

I can't tell you enough how much all of your comments and encouragement helped me push through and get my San Antonio memory book finished in time to take advantage of my Shutterfly special. It is going to be my first 12X12 book and I couldn't think of a better event to go big on.

I hope to catch up with all of your wonderful pages that I know are filling the gallery too in the next couple of days.

PS. If anyone can help put names to a bunch of the new scrapbooker faces in the big group shot, I would love to have a list but knew that was beyond my ability before the deadline and those I know are mentioned throughout the book so have those names preserved already.

You'll love it, I hope! There is something "Wow!" about the 12X12 size. You don't realize how big the pictures will be until you see it in front of you.

Love Katrina's new avatar, too!

GIRL~~~!!! I have just surfaced here at the public library in Bar Harbor. I have been really sick since I got here from San An. But this book of yours is making me weller by the moment. You have done an amazing job of capturing the weekend. Love it.

Your book is one of the best I've seen. I LOVE the consistent design you used and the balance of big photo/block of little photos. And the colors. And everything else!!

Nope, no mousitis but essentially in a bit of a coma atm due to lack of sleep over this & when I try to sleep, having a mamma & her 6 kittens wanting to come and snuggle and play and walk over the clock turning on the radio.. it is a hectic bedroom not very conducive to sleep at the moment & no Mike until tonight to keep them entertained so I can grab some sleep.

For a "simple" template, it sure is a beauty to work with and turned out as good as I could hope it would.

Cassie - yes, I will get you links for those photos at the Alamo for you.. they aren't all the sharpest (probably because your curse talking to the bee was cracking me up! such a great entertainer!! and calmed Jack right down) but not too bad if you don't try making them too big
