So today I have decided to look at it as not failing in my blogging but just that I had to put it on hold while I enjoyed life.
I have to remember that it is not important how often I create BUT that I create!!
However, during our recent trip to the coast I decided to pack an Amy Tangerine Notebook, a few stamps and bits and pieces and make some time each day to document the trip.
I loved that this sweet girl thought it was fascinating and watched me as I put the album together each day. She has declared that she wants to be a scrapbooker when she grows up and I have quickly let her know that she can start now!
Today I added a few final embellishments and I am really happy with the way it turned out.
I need a few more of these great little books!!
Have a great week and thanks for taking the time to read my blog, it means a lot to me!
What a fabulous memento of your summer holiday Karen! A great idea to record your family activities as they happen and get creative at the same time :-)
ReplyDeleteHi Karen, I so totally agree with you blogging can take up so much time, not only keeping your own up to date but to drop in on others as well... Oh well you get done what you can. Great pictures and thanks for dropping by my blog. Hopefully you will have time to drop in at CSI and play along.
