So, Rhonda....What have you been doing the last month?

In a word: Scrapbooking. I put the finishing touches on this 42-page monstrosity at midnight last night (hence the completely cluttered desktop). This is the second book I have done for Mrs. Ellis to give to her granddaughter. It was fun to make, and I enjoy working with Mrs. Ellis. She gives me free reign and doesn't question the costs. And let's face it, if you're going to scrapbook, it's going to cost!

Just wanted to share a few of the pages below.

If only I could get this much done for myself.
