Isn't technology wonderful!!!! And a visit to Bath

It is when it's working!!!!! And over a week without a computer shows me just how much I depend on it.....for work and pleasure......and wouldn't it just happen in the middle of this wonderful class......which is now almost finished.......and they're not even sure if they've fixed it!!!!
I haven't been idle though.....more pages done for my holiday album.
Shimelle suggested finding one of your own layouts that you love.......and use it as inspiration to make a new one........I really love this one of DS.......and looking back at recent LOs I notice I've made quite a few based on having a series of photos across the centre of the page......and really like this format.
So I decided to use it for a layout of our holiday visit to Bath........it doesn't work quite as well on an 11 x 8.5 page.....but I still like it.....and enjoyed using the border punch again. 
As I'm making mainly double page layouts for this album......I made a second Bath page...... and used some digi downloads for the journaling spots.
I've almost completed the album.......thanks to this inspiring class.Now need to catch up on a bit of blog reading!!

Glad you're back! I've missed your updates. A whole week without a computer of some type would make be go mad! LOL I'm such a gadget junky. Love your layouts, I think they all work wonderfully!

Missed you too, Jacky. Being without a computer and daily craft fix is a terrible thing - good to have you back on-line and with two such fab layouts too

Happy Sunday

Missed you, Jacky. However, it looks like you've been hard at work on your Bath album. The layouts are great. They give me an idea of what Bath is like after reading about it in so many books.

Lovely to see your shots of Bath. We used to live about 30 mins away and always enjoyed visiting :o)
A very adaptable design and I think you've made it work well in a different format.
