This challenge was inspired by Ali Edwards.
Me : Again, I’m keeping it simple to focus on the words and photo.  This was a self-time photo taken in Hawaii.  Several people offered to take the photo for me, but I insisted on taking it myself.

Felicia : Love this color combination and clean white background.

Zarogina : What [...]

Hello from Park City, Utah!  As I am resting here at the resort after a short hike, it dawned on me that I have not posted a new challenge.  I meant to post it on Sunday before my departure for Utah, but I guess I had other things on my mind.  And once I arrived [...]

For your viewing pleasure, I am excited to share the layouts of our 7 Wonders scrapbook challenge.
Me : Simple layout that focuses on photos and words.

JOURNALING : 1) Nature.  The outdoors is a large playground that begs to be explored.  2) Learning and teaching others to learn.  3) Connections.  Relationships.  The world isn’t as big [...]

My friend collects daylilies.

Another friend collects rubber duckies.  Her bathroom is filled with them — and for each holiday, you can find a plethora of ducks to match!
My brother collects 50’s furniture and ceramic dogs.  (Yeah, ceramic dogs.  WTF?)
And my buddy from Hawaii collects Pinky-Street Japanese dolls.  Actually, he seems to collect lots of things [...]

My friend collects rocks.  She picks one up from every hike, every trip.  Each rock has its own story — and if you ask, the story unfolds to reveal an exciting adventure.
My sister collects yarn.  She has a treasure chest full of yarn that she draws inspiration from.
Most of us have some sort of collection.  [...]

Journaling : [...]
