I have been SO busy for SO long now, I really haven't taken much time to scrap...in fact, it's been MONTHS. For something I enjoy SO much, it makes me sad that I haven't done it in so long. I've almost ignored the urge--because I'm too overwhelmed (with other stuff) to think about it.
Last night, I was putting some Girl Scout newsletters that I've been doing for her troop, in her scrapbook. I sat and looked through my past work and realized how very much I miss it.
Tonight, I took to it! I had no meetings and didn't have to run the kids anywhere. Yay! So, after dinner, I locked myself in my office and sat down and digi-scrapped. I love doing it this way. Look below, the same layout, but I can throw them in each of my kids' books and they'll never know how much easier it was for me (and quicker) to do it this way, than to do it with actual paper. I still do miss the hands-on, cutting, gluing, etc....but this way is practical for me right now. Plus, I can get a kit of digi-scrap files, and I know that they match and that the embellishments will "work" on the page.
It felt really good to do a little "memory-making" again tonight.

Cute pages, Sara! I'm finally catchin' on to the digi=scrap movement...what, like 5 years later?! :)
Wow -- what great pictures, Sara!! Your kids are so adorable -- Isabel is just gorgeous! And good for you for taking some time to do something that YOU enjoy! :o) yay!
Sarah, I'm very ignorant in the digital scrapbook area. I know you can put your pics in the different layouts and all that cute stuff, but how do you actually get that in paper? Do you print it? I'm stuck now with so many pictures because I don't seem to find the time to sit down, cut, glue, etc. Any advise will we very welcome, specially from an expert a.k.a You!
Thanks! And btw great pictures!
