hi! in november i finally managed to finish an album about winter 2009-2010! i'm happy and proud! i started this album on Carolyn Peeler class and it took me about a year to add all the photos i wanted :) now i'm happy to show it to you :) I'm quite sorry for the photos.. I borrowed a big nikon camera from my friend to make photos - but.. i must have borrowed my friend's hands too i suppose... i'm not good at making photos just now.. so i'm sorry, really. i hope you'll watch it never the less (fingers crossed :) )
This is the cover - i made it on Carolyn class - and i like it a lot.
It's how it looks open. I love that it's quite sick.
The first pages.. It's me and John :) The text is in Russian and it tells about my intentions concerning this album. I'm glad that i have finally fulfilled it :)
We loved playing board games! Well we still love it :) But on that winter hlidays we gathered together almost every day and played-played-played :) We like Settlers of Catan, Civilization and Monopoly :)
The left page is about me and Naphanya and how we made scrapbooking tags and then gave them to Rebecca Sower's haitibyhand shop. (here's a link to haitybyhand blog)I was glad that we had an opportunity to help. The right page is about New Year celebration at Yandex office where I work. It was much fun there with lots of baloons and many-many tables with food!
Pages about out friends and going sledding :)
Celebrating New Year 2010! Our presents on the left page and our guests eating my funny ice-cream flowers on the right.
February, 1th is John's Birthday. I love this day - we celebrate it with his best friends - very warm and cozy.
St. Valentine's Day is winter too =) This year we went to Hard Rock cafe Moscow - for the first time - and it really rocks! :) Photos with a nice pot are from Grimm Sisters cafe - I love their pots!!! But I did broke that one from the photo. I managed to save a small part of it - it's still with my scrap stuff.
Photo with Carolyn Peeler from her class - yay! And me on the sledding hill))
Journalling from the previous page - a bit more readable.
Very bad quality :( But this is my favourite page. It says that at the beginning of this album i wrote down a wish - to buy a car - and we did it just at the end of winter, on February, 13th! This is he! My most beloved Peugeot 307, called R2. He's our best helper in just everything!
