I have around 140 pictures from our beach trip this year. Now, you know I want to scrapbook them all but I had to force myself to only pick the important photos. That still left me with gazillion to work with.
I’ve been working on these templates for some time now but they are finally done… and I’m finally done scrap’n the beach trip too. Ahhh. I’m happy with the way they turned out. I didn’t add any elements because I wanted to photos to speak for themselves. I ended up with 10 pages total. It’s tempting to make a mini book but I think I’ll just stick them in my regular photo album and call it good.
The templates are pretty versatile. If you don’t have as many photos as I did you can put paper on the squares to jazz it up or make it less busy. I moved and transformed squares when I needed to fit certain photos.
If you like, download here. If you need a closer look, you can check out all the individual pages at flickr.
Here are a few of my pages.







These are great! Thanks!
