Roxie LO Inspired by CTMH How To Book, "Imagine"

Created this layout using our Roxie paper line and the Roxie MyStickease. The inspiration for layout pattern came from our "How To" book, "Imagine". One of my favorites as the left page formats an 8x10 photo and the right page tells the story with journaling and other related photos! Love our How-To-Books!

Flip Flap Photobook & "Lucky" Papers

Haven't posted one of these fun, easy projects in awhile! This was created using the Lucky paper line! And our 4x6 flip flaps to protect the photos! Leave a comment if you have any questions at all!

Saying Thank You...

Saying thank you is a blessing to those we associate with. We all like to serve a friend or loved one or even a stranger in words and deeds. In the past few months, I have tried to do a better job of expressing gratitude for those I love. Saying thank you is really enough but sometimes we are also inspired to create our thank yous.

I found some old notebooks in my stash of writing materials and decided to create a special Thank You for a friend!
