A Mockingbird, Toe Socks & Mississippi

What do those three things have in common, you might ask? Not much really, except that they are the subjects of three more layouts for our 2011 chronological albums.

To Kill A Mockingbird - photos & playbill from a theater production; two 8 1/2 x 11 pages that will fit the front & back of a page protector. I enjoyed using several die cut 3x4 cards as accents on these pages.


Toe Socks - 12x12 page design inspired by an older May Flaum layout. I like how all the little bits & pieces tie these two photos together.
Journaling reads: After I posted a memorial to Elinor on my blog, one of my blog readers (Rebekah) sent me a festive package containing a pair of toe socks! As I mourned the loss of my dear friend, I was able to enjoy new friendships that have developed because of my new hobby of blogging.

A Quick Stop In Mississippi - a fairly simple 12x12 layout showcasing photos of friends & family.
Journaling reads: Headed back home after Robbie had a job interview in southern Louisiana, we made a quick overnight stop in Mississippi. We didn't have time to see everyone, but we visited Peggy & Penny, made the rounds to put flowers on graves at three cemeteries, and stayed the night with Aunt Betty and Uncle Adrian.
