I am a mom that records all the things! Love taking pictures of my kids, especially on those special days like the first day of school. Like so many others, school looks different this year (our entire county is attending virtually for at least the first nine weeks), but I wasn’t about to miss thatContinue reading “The First Day of Virtual School”

Creating Unique Elements with Branding Strips
I mentioned earlier this week that my scrapbooking supplies were feeling just a bit neglected recently. I have been spending so much time in my planners that I have not done a lot of memory keeping. Well, it is a new month and a new season, so I figured it was time to get backContinue reading “Creating Unique Elements with Branding Strips”
Simple Pocket Pages
Simple is the name of the game when it comes to scrapping for me recently. Plus, if I am being honest, there hasn’t been a lot of scrapping to do, because activities this summer have been limited. I haven’t been doing my official job as family photographer very well! I am getting excited for theContinue reading “Simple Pocket Pages”
“Summer Goodbyes” Memory Keeping Process
Goodbyes will always be hard. Goodbyes in the midst of a global pandemic that has the world turned upside down are especially hard. Recently, my parents made a big cross-country move, leaving the Northern Virginia area and making their way back to Texas. I decided to work through a little of the sadness of themContinue reading ““Summer Goodbyes” Memory Keeping Process”
Envelope Mini Album
Mini albums have been my go-to scrapbooking outlet recently. I feel like with not as much going on this summer, mini-albums are the perfect outlet to get to use my supplies without having to do a whole involved album. It’s been great. This week, I gave an “envelope” mini album a try, and it workedContinue reading “Envelope Mini Album”
Memory Keeping in Quarantine
This summer looks different than any other summer that I can remember. There are no travel plans, no visits to the community pool, and no fun outings to museums or movies. It is a different kind of summer, but that certainly does not mean that it can’t or shouldn’t be documented. So, while it feelsContinue reading “Memory Keeping in Quarantine”
“Dream Big” A5 Journal Process
Documenting the past couple of months has definitely felt different. Times are not easy, but we are certainly making memories. I’ve had some pretty amazing accomplishments, but also felt some very low times as well. But, I will continue to document my family’s story through the roller coaster, because I am sure we will wantContinue reading ““Dream Big” A5 Journal Process”
GRL PWR Mini Album
Seriously, if you do not follow Damask Love on Instagram, you need to! She is a ray of sunshine, and her colorful clothing always makes me happy. Plus, she is the type of crafter that I want to be. None of her projects are crazy complicated, they are all bright and happy, and she isContinue reading “GRL PWR Mini Album”
“A Spring to Remember” A5 Journal Process
I am falling a bit behind on my memory keeping, but such is life these days! This week, I am continuing to work with the “Grace” kit from Felicity Jane. The colors are very soft and light, perfect for the spring! This entry was primarily an exercise in layering, working with bits and pieces ofContinue reading ““A Spring to Remember” A5 Journal Process”
