I Started Memory Planning!

Well, I am sure that you all saw this coming, considering how hyper focused I have been on my planners recently! I have been wanting to try out memory planning, and it turned out that a few weeks ago, the Happy Planner had some of their memory planners on super sale. So, October hit, andContinue reading “I Started Memory Planning!”

The First Day of Virtual School

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”

Diving into Pocket Pages!

I love changing up my memory keeping format. I’ve done the 12×12 scrapbooks (albeit, years ago..), traveler’s notebooks, and A5 journals. This summer, I decided to try something new, and I will be dabbling in pocket pages. Check out my first ever pocket page process below: I did run into a few challenges as IContinue reading “Diving into Pocket Pages!”

“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”
