One of my favorite albums I have done so far is my All about ME album...
not because I like to concentrate on scrapbooking ME, but I think it is important to document
your thoughts, feelings, what made you YOU instead! Life is hard enough, especially
when you are going through a hard time! I used scrapbooking as a therapy tool,
though didn't realize it until later on down the line.
You All About ME album is just that - all about you in layouts that are attractive
and nice to look at. They can be about your birth, childhood, things you did right
or wrong, or just about anything you would want from them. Each week, I will be
giving you a layout and a topic to talk about...if you catch up this week, feel free to
go to this link to get even more topics to scrapbook...this will keep you busy for quite
a while!
For this layout - pick your favorite color for the layout, I chose brown and pink because I love the colors together. Now, being
the youngest child mom didn't have a lot of pictures of me! So,
my layouts consist of journaling about certain time periods in my
life. I want you to talk about how your name came to be - or
about what kid number you are - or about your parents...
Whatever your take is on this layout - start with your name,
and make it into YOU!
I first started with my name in a basic title format, starting
with the L, wrapping it with brown ribbon, and then finishing
the letters with brown alpha stickers. Take one photo, matt it in brown and then
pink, adding a bit of lace and brad to the photo matt. Using the rest of the cardstock
add the journaling you want to go with your photo and add to the layout.
