Meeting Family (Philippines '07 Family Dinner)

Cheers

SHCG: Very nice Sharon.... you really know how to pull of these multi-photo, multi-page LOs! I really like how you added the little flowers in the title and used coordinating flowers on the opposite page. How cool that you had the opportunity to meet all these people!

SHCG: This is fantastic. Love the journaling (surprise, surprise). What a wonderful event, and fantastic way to meet family. The photos are awesome and I really like the colors you used. The mats are perfect. I really like how you journaled a bit on the photos. The flowers are perfect and I love how you used them to dot the i's. Beautiful story.

SHCG: So cool that you got a chance to visit and meet your family members! I think this lo is perfect the way it is! The pps are perfect, the mats, the journaling and the flowers! I really don't see anything that bugs me!

SHCG: This page is beautiful. I think what I love most is the way you used Ambrosia pps to pull it all together. While I wouldn't have thought your style would work well with that collection, you've certainly transformed it to work well. I love your super thin matting. How lovely that your aunt seems highlighted subtly because of your color choices, but it doesn't overly draw away from the whole family. Great photos, beautiful work.

SHCG: WOW WOW WOW what a BIG family! My only suggestion would have been to blow up one of the photo to 8 1/2 x 11 to see the faces better.

SHCG: First off, absolutely no critiques necessary. These pages are all about family, how large it is from both sides and how it is brimming with love, which is why a streamlined look to the spread really enhances these group photos. I also love that you used a primarily red orange monochromatic scheme, because it makes the blues stand out on their own, especially Auntie Evangelina in her radiance. I so love the BG flower punches(?) (from scraps?) to get more use of that lovely pp, which complements your dress, btw. Is the wavy hyphen between the title words a punch, too? Jingle bell brad centers are a super cute idea. (A nod to Jing Jing? Gotta love those Filipino one syllable repeated nicknames. :D) The light ribbon is a really nice way to underscore your journaling; my favorite part is your reference to your Auntie Evangeline's entry. LOVE Max's, rarely get to go here in the Bay Area. It is such a treat. Super generous of your folks, too. Awe-inspiring that they are both from 12 siblings. How funny you have a pic of people with the initial D and then there's Sharon & Greg. That little Lianne, what a cutie! It's wonderful that you had this experience within an experience with your family. I can see that she definitely lives on in your dad and the rest of your huge, beautiful family.

Wonderful journaling Sharon! So glad you got this trip/experience. I'd love to know what all you'd asked on those guestbook pages and how you've used them since.
