Traditional Scrapbook - Graduation 2010

Good morning! Today I'm sharing my traditional scrapbook of my Highschool Graduation back in 2010. I can't believe that was almost 5 years ago now. Doing this project was like taking a trip down memory lane, and it was bittersweet, but I'm glad that I got it done. At first, I debated splitting this into a couple of parts, but then I decided that because this happened 5 years ago, I'd just like to get all of it shared at once, so this is a long one. I'll skip blabbing about it, so if you have any questions about this post, you can leave a comment with your email and your question and I'll e-mail you. Or you can e-mail me creationsbycoal@gmail.com.
 

While I was photographing these pages, Gracie got excited and came to look out the window, and see what I was up to. I think she just assumed that I opened the blinds so she could look outside at the birds. She likes to lay on the heat register and look out at the deck and meow at the birds.

Alright. These pages appear in the order that they appear in the scrapbook. There was a few two-page spreads in here, so I included photos of those together. To keep a cohesive look throughout, I tried to stay with black, grey, purple and gold. I mixed in a bit of pink, green and light blue here and there, to keep it from getting too monotonous. I also mounted all my pages onto a piece of black cardstock, so that even if the colors weren't exactly the same, they would still go nicely together.

Alright, enough of my blabbing, here's my pages!

Thanks for coming by to look at these pages. All of them were inspired by sketches, mostly by Shimelle. All of the sketches I used, and others, can be found on my Traditional Scrapbook Sketches board on Pinterest (here). While you're there, feel free to follow me, I may or may not be slightly addicted to Pinterest, but that's totally okay right?

Have a great day!
