Places We've Been...Thank You, Stacy Julian!

"Places We've Been" (visited...travelled to...vacations we love, etc.)
I did some scrapping in high school and some later but just in the past few years have been serious about putting family memories in albums. So the idea of doing photos in chronological order from birth to present day?....well it was an overwhelming thought. I was behind before I got started! Then, I saw this awesome gal, Stacy Julian (Blog: stacyjulian.com), on a tv scrapbooking show a few years ago. I particularly loved the idea of creating albums by events/people: people we love, places we've been, etc. Her idea set me free! I thought...I will make this MY scrapbook philosophy! And so I did.

I am enjoying creating this month with the Timberline paper packet and embellishments!  The design is pattern 2 from  our "How To" books, "Make It From Your Heart", Vol 2.  These pages will go in our album, Wyoming. I dedicate the entire book to that state as we visited all major towns/cities/sites and took some amazing photos. GREAT family memory! In 9 days! Worthy of binding!

Man Art

I have been creating with a favorite paper line, Timberline. It's so manly! Created a Father's Day card for the MAN and a mountain card for the SON! Great papers for vacation also. Sneak Peek!! I used our new markers that are available August 1st on the Son card with the Muir quote.  They are so awesome. Besides I love to color but not in the lines usually. These markers are magic I tell ya. They moved on their own and stayed in the lines…Purchase all papers and embellishments here at
