Why do I want to scrapbook. I had to ask myself this as I looked at loads of giant albums and drawers and cupboards full of stickers, paper and embellishments. Is there a point to all of this? Will anyone care about it all? I’m actually starting this entry (or whatever it turns out to …

How to remember how tiny your kids were
This layout took no time at all. And before you click away and say, I don’t scrapbook; listen. Find the tiny thing your kid wore when they were newborn. Tape it to a piece of paper and add it to the baby book. No baby book? Hallmark makes great simple ones I love. I have …
Some Layouts
“Are you going to post those layouts you made?” Sarah asked me. We had a scrap day a while back and I went nuts doing regular 12×12 layouts. I mean regular because I did Project Life last year, and because of it did few traditional type layouts. Totally fine, but I did miss it. Also …
Bennet’s First Page
I may not be as organized and prepared scrapbook wise as I was before Tuesday was born (I had a whole fill in the blank scrapbook ready to go), but I’m determined not to forget all the little moments happening now. I’m also determined to use some of my supplies. I’m trying hard not to …
The layouts… how old school.
I have been doing so much scrapbooking via Project Life, that “traditional” 12×12 layouts have totally fallen by the wayside for me. I don’t mind so much, but I do like that I can focus on fun paper combos and more story for the big pages. So while the computer was down I thought I’d …
1981
This is one of my favorite layouts in a while. I think I’ve had the base done for a few months now… I was just waiting to get the right paper into my Silhouette for the title and year. I painted on this layout (maybe even as far back as our beach retreat?), so it’s …
Dreaming of Spring
The this moment photo from last week was taken at 2500 ISO with all the lights on in the room and the windows open… and it was only 1pm! It’s been quite gloomy here (with a few very welcome sunny days thrown in). Not surprisingly I’m being drawn to my spring time photos to scrap. …
Crafting for me
Scrapbooking is totally crafting for me. I don’t know who is going to want my scrapbooks down the road, but I know I love looking at them, a lot. I love all the memories, all of the details and the fun products. Just the chance to get crafty is so fun. From the tiny bit …
Cell phone scrapping
So I recently got a new iPhone, and I’m super excited about the camera most of all, the pictures look great from it. My older phone didn’t take the greatest pictures, but that hasn’t stopped me from scrapping them. I thought I’d share a handful of layouts I’ve done recently using pictures from my phone. …
More of the same, and something new.
While I was going through all those photos and organizing my storage binders I became obsessed with scrapbooking 2008. It was just a year of so much change, and excitement. The remodel, the pregnancy, grandpa, travels. I feel like I’m on the verge of forgetting it all. Of course 2008 was also the year of …
