I've been making so many cards lately that I'm afraid my albums are feeling a bit neglected. With that in mind, I decided to make scrapbook pages this month.
I absolutely love ALSB (Assembly Line Scrapbooking). You can get so much done in so little time, but sometimes I forget about the Layout Cards designed for our membership each month. Much like our Idea Decks, the Layout Cards aren't "paper-specific", so you can use them with any papers in your stash.

| Up, Up and Away Layout Card |
While exploring the past few months' Layout Cards, Up, Up and Away's caught my eye, so I paired it with papers from the Wisteria Club Scrap kit. All I had to do is gather the appropriate papers, trim them according to the instructions, and assemble.
I just love how these pages came out, don't you? The photos of my daughter, Emma, paired with the Wisteria prints perfectly! I really didn't need to do much to finish up the pages; just tinted the white silk flowers from the CS kit with my hybrid inks, added the LOVE sticker from the Lite kit, and channeled my inner "Kay" by adding a wee bit of glitter glue. I think the whole process took me about 30 minutes, start to finish!
