thought i'd start sharing some of my projects that i've been hiding away for a while. since the stuff i'm doing now is stuff that can't be shown for a while. i think i'm actually losing track of what i have where, and where i have what ;)
this has got to be one of my easiest layouts ever. and it has 16 photos on it! these were photos from our trip up to my aunt and uncle's cabin last summer. which if you were dying to know more about, you could read it all HERE. so i just took a bunch of the photos, and printed them as 2x3 photos. i did this in photoshop, and put 4 of them together on a 4x6 photo. which was then printed at costco. you can read a little explanation of how i do this HERE.
i could have printed them myself, but just seemed easier to order them through costco. and if you had them all arranged right, or didn't really care what order they were in, you could totally just adhere your 4 4x6 photos to the layout. but i cut up each 2x3 photo and then arranged them and adhered them. a little extra step, mainly because i didn't plan all that when i printed them.
then just added some of the new great escape collection from making memories. a little strip of pattern paper, a journaling notebook page, some wooden letters, and a clip and a brad. so simple.
Great layout, I may use it with my 5 years old girl's birthday party pictures :-)

You always rock the multi photo layouts!!! I am totally copying this one...again! :o) And I have been holding out on those wooden letters but don't think I can anymore, I keep seeing layout after layout with them. I think I will have to go get them after all!!!

Laura, love this layout. I am in love with the 4 x 6 tip you gave us...using it all the time. It makes it so much easier when I have lots of photos from the same thing!
Thanks!

I so love when you do these photo collages, they are so great and you can put so many photos on there! I am going to practice in my pse trying to resize my photos and have them printed...I just always forget to do play arond with it and then I need the photos quick and just print all haphazardly wasting lots of paper, or I order wallets that cost more than a 4x6! UGH! I promise to get better, you are my inspiration!

You are the queen of collages and making something that looks so hard a little bit easier.
That product line really coordinates well with the pics. Love everything about the LO!

I'm determined to learn some decent photoshop skills so I can do the wallet size pics - I'm finding I really love them and want to use them all the time right now!! I've been paying .13 cents a sheet at Costco to get one wallet. I cut and pasted all your steps into Word and I hope to try it this weekend - thanks!
