Gallery Finds

Photobucket

Welcome to another edition of gallery finds.

I found some beauties in the gallery today! Take a look!

Whole Sub by K_Scrappy is storytelling and scrapping at it's finest.
Photobucket
I love the memory she captured through her journaling! Those wordstrips draw your eye in and give you a overview of the story, but then she continues to give the full version in her journaling. The choice of kit was perfect too, for her sweet boy! Beautiful work!

Lucky I'm in love by MommaTrish is absolute gorgeousness.
Photobucket
I love the grunge, the amazing clustering! I keep staring at all the little things tucked in the bottom of the page. Her blend is gorgeous and I adore her stitched down title work! Perfection!

Thank you ladies for sharing your pages in the galleries! You are an inspiration!!

JOURNAL IT: This perfectly imperfect moment

0
Photobucket

Welcome to another journal it series. "Journal It" is where you can find help with journal inspiration or where you can find a quote that you can use on about on almost ANY layout. I hope this will help to inspire you. You could use the prompts in many different ways... you might use the prompt on your layout and stop right there, you may not need to journal more... Whereas other times these prompts might inspire you to write about something even deeper. Feel free to check out this weeks prompt below. If you missed any, you can check out any previous prompts. And be sure to come back because I'll be posting a new journaling prompt every other Monday!

Photobucket

The prompt is another one that you will be able to use on quite a few layouts or photos in your stash. All of us love to scrap those those gorgeous photos of our loved ones, and record those unforgettable memories. But, what about those photos that don't turn out so picture perfect? Or those memories that are not so perfect? Sometimes those are the BEST memories or have the funniest story. We need to remember to capture those imperfect moments as well.

Today's Prompt is: "perfectly imperfect" OR "this perfectly imperfect moment"

How could you use this prompt? You could:
1) Add just this sentiment on your page. Having only this will make you smile at this perfectly (not so perfect) memory OR
2) Add this sentiment on your page, AND, add perhaps WHAT the memory or story is behind this imperfect memory. Just because it was imperfect doesn't mean that there isn't a story to go along with it. Was it about a child that got into mischief? Or an adorable puppy that has wreaked havoc on your home?Think back to the moment this picture was taken. Does it bring back the day? What it something they said? Was it funny? Sad? Or perhaps a feeling?

See where this can take you?

For example: I looked through my folders 'of pictures yet to scrap' specifically looking for perfectly "imperfect" moments. And SHOCKER.... there were at least a dozen or so different photos and moments that would've worked. Then I saw these photos (below). Perfect. I remember this moment like it was yesterday. Taking my son on his first "grown up" roller coaster. And even though he was SO excited, and wanted SO badly to go on a big kid roller coaster, he didn't have the perfect time like he though he would. Not that it was bad or good... but it just was. So I got to work scrapping this moment. Check out my layout:

Photobucket

Take today's journal prompt and scrap a "perfectly imperfect moment", because even imperfect memories need to be recorded! I would encourage you to record the full story. This prompt might make a great title, or it might find its place in the middle of your journaling, but those looking back at the pages of your imperfect memories will love to hear the story however you choose to share it. So write it down! And when you do, be sure to share it with us by posting a link in the comments section of this post!

As always I love to see what you create, and hope that you will play along with this week's prompt!

I mentioned that I had something very exciting in the works!! And it's here!!

Sara Gleason ( of Zinnias and Swallowtails) and Crystal Livesay have just started a website called, Plant Your Story. I am so excited about this!! It is an entire site dedicated to helping us focus 'our stories'. I am a huge believer in not only capturing our photos but documenting our stories as well. This site will be a wonderful source of inspiration and encouragement for anyone who find themselves wanting to tell their own stories. Plant Your Story will be offering their journal prompts and template series, as a guide in helping others to tell their stories.




And.... not only that, they have put together an amazing class that is plump full of journaling based templates, prompts, videos and inspiration.
When Sara invited me to be a part of their first class, I was SO thrilled!
And I've created a really special kit for the event, (included with the class).
I can't WAIT to show you a peek of it! It is my new favorite kit I've made to date!!

Photobucket


Registration is now open for the class, and runs April 18-May 9th.
The start date for the class is May 9th.
The Sahlin Studio kit is included with the class

And something fun and exciting new today as well !!
Both Easter and May Day are coming up!!

"For those of you who don't know what May Day is: One of the most popularly known May Day traditions is to hang a basket full of spring flowers and/or other small gifts on a neighbor's doorknob. The trick is you don't want the neighbor to see you! If you get caught, you are supposed to get a kiss."

To make things EASY... I know I look for fast and easy ways to make the event fun for my kiddos. Krisi (of Krisi's Kreations) teamed up with me to bring you... EASY printable DOOR HANGERS, perfect for putting special treats in! These are sooooooo easy to make. You print, cut out, fold... and DONE!
