Things I learnt from a Twilight Marathon.

So I bought the Twilight boxset because it was pretty – and it only cost £5 more than buy just the last film on DVD.

So after watching all five movies again here is what I’ve learnt.

 

  • While in the books I’m Team Edward in the movies I’m Team Jacob.
  • Kristen Stewart is really annoying.
  • Robert Patterson is not that hot.
  • Alice is my favourite character in both the books and the movies.
  • I want Billy Boyd to be my Dad.
  • I love the end of the movie series.
  • My favourite scene in both book and movie is when Bella arm wrestles Emmett.
  • Kristen Stewart looks a lot better as a vampire than she does a human.
  • I hate Bella’s engagement ring.
  • Watching all the movies twice at the cinema one with my mum and sister and once with the girls from work (usually both in the same day) was money well spent.
  • The books are still better than the movies.
  • I think I’ll leave it a few months before I attempt to watch it again.

Layout Makeover

This week Glitter Girl talked about redoing old layouts so I thought I would share a layout I redid last week but didn’t get to share because I got sick.

This is the original layout I made back in 2007 when I was just figuring out how to digital scrapbook with lots of freebies as I was making an album for both my grandmothers for Christmas.  I hate it and most of the layouts I made for those albums so I’m planning to redo them. 

 

And this the redo. It’s based on Shimelle’s Sketch to Layout sketch. It’s so much better.
