I can't seem to let them go...

This post should come with a nerd alert because I'm referring to the HP books!
So here goes a series of layouts that some will relate to (HP fans), some will not care about (non HP fans) and some will judge me for (...).

The first layout says it all, I am addicted to Harry Potter. And as I have photos from the theme park, I thought I could make an album with them and include all my thoughts, feelings, experiences, ... around the whole series.

There's a possibility there will be a good bunch of pages, and there might be some that come to mind in the future, so I won't do a photobook, I'll go with a binder style album I think. That way if I want to add something to it in the future, I can :D
I'm not really aiming to create a unity either. I have too many layouts in mind to narrow it down to a few kits, it would get repetitive visually. So I bought a few kits last year (5 kits bought plus a freebie and a CT kit, which by fluke but quite appropriately makes a total of 7kits to scrap with, lol). I might add some if it becomes hard to diversify.
I have made a few layouts in the past, and will probably include them (or maybe re-make them, or both... we'll see).

For today, here's my first layout, titled Addicted!


I also need help coming up with a good title. I haven't given it much thought yet, but what I've thought of was not great. On the Picasa gallery, the album is called My "All things Harry Potter" album, lol, for lack of an idea. So anyone out there with great titling skills, or extensive Harry Potter knowledge, I need your help ;)

I'm working on a title... Just need to find the english versions. Stay tuned, I'll be back!

The Patronus Diaries /Diary
You-know-who's Gallery
Mischiefs Managés
Priori Incantatum

Still looking for more original ideas, but I had to create a Pottermore account in english to find the translations. Waiting for the sign in email...

F#&€-!#Ing tablet keyboard, who only likes french words! I meant Mischiefs ManagED, of course!

To help narrow down my ideas and research, who is your favorite character (Books and/or movies)?

Marie-France Gervais said...

I like the Patronus Diaries... I'll keep it in mind :D
As for my favourites... it's a really tough question! My favourite book is probably Goblet of Fire, or maybe Half-Blood Prince... And my favourite character is something I never even thought about! Sirius Black or Remus Lupin come to mind...

Or which house were you sorted in on Pottermore?

Marie-France Gervais said...

On Pottermore, I went to Hufflepuff. (Other tests in the past had mostly put me in Ravenclaw, thought.)
What about you?

Anne-Laure said...

Tried 3 times: first I think it was Griffyndor, but I forgot my name and password. Second and twice, both in Slytherin: was pretty surprised but I'm delighted, since Severus is one of my top 3 characters. I was expecting Ravenclaw, never came out.
