I discovered a little trick for using loads of pictures on a layout. Usually, I don't need 8 full 4x6 photos, but I want small parts of many photos. For example, E's face as she opened her gifts wasn't as flattering as her face as she blew out the candles. But, I wanted to remember what she received on her second birthday. So, I took my circle punch and punched out the part of the photo that showed her gifts and used those circles on my layout as an accent. I also punched out various circles of her face as I found all the smiles endearing. This seems to be a good way to get lots of pics onto a one page spread. I hope this helps as you try to incorporate all those beautiful pics!
Happy Creating!

Love this and thanks for the tip on using the photos...I often look at all these great pics and have no idea what to do with them!!!!
Wishing you a wonderful day!!! :-)
Awww, she looks so excited! i have a harder time with events than moments, too! you totally told the story, though, and i think the circle idea worked great!
Thanks for the tip!!! I'm not good at scrapbooking 'big events" either... I stick to the small things but I can use your tip there as well!
Thanks so much for the tip, this is adorable and so clever! Beautiful design Bethany, I'll definitely try this! I love all her "smiling pics".

Oh cute, cute, cute! Love the circles! Thank you SO much for stopping by. You are too sweet. I wish I hadn't been so stressed and crazy-headed when you came. CJ is still talking about his friend Cam. He gave his dino the BIGGEST hug this morning.
