A few weeks ago, I had the honor of designing with Jenni Bowlin’s Haven line. Here’s what I made:
Journaling Reads:
My sweet Nathaniel, when david was two years old, i was working full-time and did not get to spend my days with him but now that I work from home I get to experience this age with you and I am enjoying it so very much and I am so grateful that I get to live it every single day.
And some details:
This layout is for Write.Click.Scrapbook’s June Gallery. The theme is to scrap Weddings.
Journaling Reads:
twins. right before the ceremony started Aksel was supposed to put petals all over the ground. Instead he turned over his whole bucket and dumped them.
chuppah. I loved that our chuppah was carried by family and they got to surround us the entire time. Holding our home over us. Protecting.
weather. It was an amazing Boston day and to have it in Jake’s home with such a stunning garden…it could not have been more special than this.
ceremony. i am not religious but i wanted a traditional ceremony. we got the best mixture of tradition and poetry. Quiet, personal, and magical.
danny. I will never forget hearing danny’s sniffs throughout our whole ceremony. He was so emotional and I love him so very much.
Quiet. We took a moment of quiet just for us right after the ceremony and it was so nice to look at the house full of our loved ones and take a pause.
Speech. My dad gave one of the best speeches I ever heard. Funny, kind, and insightful. He’s an amazing person and I will never forget the speech.
Cake. Our wedding was mostly quiet and not over the top, This cake was the only splurge I wanted and I loved the way it looked and tasted.
Friends. We kept our wedding small. Only our closest friends and I am so glad those special people were there to witness and celebrate with us.
forever. The very best part of our wedding was by far the marriage. Getting to spend forever with the man I love, my best friend, is the greatest gift ever.

This was designed with the beautiful Lime Twist line from My Mind’s Eye.

I know it’s frustrating to work instead of play but I think discipline starts at a young age and there 3 things will serve you well at school and in life my son.
And some details:
I had the honor to guest design for My Creative Scrapbook kit club in March. This is the last of the layouts I made with their main kit.
Journaling Reads:
It’s hard for me to see photos of myself. I have too many issues to even list here. But this year I decided that we needed more photos of all four of us and I decided it was time for me to get over my issues so I could get in the photo more and capture all of us. It has been the best decision I made in a long long time. So I am making this page as a reminder that it’s about the joy and the laughter and the memories we are making together. I will never deny our family this again.
And some details:
Catalyst One Hundred and Thirty-Three is: What’s one lesson you would give a married couple?
Journaling Reads:
Many people I’ve met over the years have given me relationship and marriage advice but I think it too often depends on the dynamics of each couple. The one thing I’ve learned from my personal experience is that it’s never about 50/50. Sometimes one person needs more help or attention and sometimes it’s the other. you go with the flow and always give 100% without keeping score. If each of you do that, it’s a good path for happiness.

I look at these photos and I think of how much my heart jumps when I see you. It can be ten, twenty, even fifty times a day. I still don’t feel like i’ve had enough . My heart swells each time and I am filled with so much love for you. I am so very grateful that you are my boys.
This layout was for Maya Road mid-season releases. The brand new canvas minibook is what I used as a background here.

Journaling Reads:
When I saw this photo of you, I couldn’t believe my eyes. You look so grown up. Such a big boy. What happened to my little baby? You are becoming more and more a person of your own and I am so proud of the boy you are turning out to be. I am so thankful that you still hug me and love me and like to spend time with me and I will make the most of it while I can cause I can see now it will pass quickly and next thing I know you’re going to be a man and I will miss getting to see you every single day. I love you my son.
This layout was for Maya Road mid-season releases. The butterfly and the small kraft pieces. I love love love them both!!

This layout was my second May blog post for Pink Paislee.
The theme was to tell a story. Which, for me, just means make a scrapbook page since I always tell a story 🙂
The journaling Reads:
David, I know I take too many photos of you and that sometimes I drive you crazy and you just don’t want to smile at the camera any more. But what I love so much is that you can’t help yourself. A few seconds and you break into a smile and then laugh like crazy. I love you my son.

Another month means another gallery at Write.Click.Scrapbook. This month is all about being inspired by a post/project from this year. I am still in love with these colorful cupcakes from Celeste’s post so I used them as my color inspiration.
This was designed with the beautiful Lime Twist line from My Mind’s Eye.
Journaling Reads:
You are very much obsessed with Thomas right now and read all the books you find. I love watching you and hearing you say choo choo all day.

Journaling Reads:
when i started this project, i knew i would cherish it but i had no idea how much fun it would be and how it would give me unparalleled opportunity to capture our joy and laughter so perfectly. It is one of the best decisions I’ve ever made. I am so thankful.

Yes, long title. Can’t help myself. This layout was my first May blog post for Pink Paislee.
It was based on this awesome PageMaps sketch:
The journaling Reads:
My sweet Nathaniel you watch your brother like he’s the bee’s knees. You liked to do whatever he’s doing and if you can’t play with him, then you take all your toys and sit next to him just so you can be near him. I love how cute you are and how much he loves it too.

Journaling Reads:
My little boy, you are now at an age where you are able to communicate and tell us what you want and now that you know we can understand if you don’t get exactly what you want you want, you put on this face of pure sadness and devastation. your hands cover your moth in shock and if you can you throw yourself to the ground. it doesn’t really work but we both smile at how cute you are sometimes we can’t help but give in.
This layout was for Maya Road and Little Yellow Bicycle swap.
