I decided I was going to finish pages in whatever order was easiest, so you'll be seeing my catch-up pages here out of order for sure. The April pages covered our trip to New Orleans and didn't need too much work to complete.
I added the photo of the horse and carriage to the calendar card since that just epitomizes New Orleans for me. I love the Paislee Press template for six photos which was perfect for the shots of the street performers. The bottom left photo is of most of the family at the Jackson Brewery and is another Paislee Press template. The rest are Tracy Larsen's. I made the journaling card from our guide for the Garden District tour's business card and a couple of Jolee stickers.
The reason for our trip was our niece's wedding. I didn't take my big camera to the wedding, so there aren't many good photos. The first three are from the amazing rehearsal dinner at Randy's parents' home. The wedding photos were taken at the reception, a gorgeous restaurant set into the trees along a river. I included one of many little items from the wedding on one of the journaling cards.
I've got so many projects going right now, it's hard to figure out what to do next! I'm taking a class that meets three days a week at the University of Rochester which requires quite a bit of reading, working on the Project Life catch-up, trying to get a few cards made, trying to maintain my workout schedule, and am enrolled in Liz Steel's newest Sketching Now class. My volunteer commitments don't start for another week, so I'm trying to make good use of my time now. I'm hoping blogging won't go by the wayside.
