While cleaning my table...

This layout wasn't supposed to happen. But, you know, sometimes you just feel like cutting without much thinking. I found a few pictures - leftover form a previous page, a not so good one, the one I didn't like the colors of, a few other random ones and I just started to cut them. I was just having fun...

But then, I realized how any picture or set of pictures have a story if you keep your mind open to it. If I was planning to make a page on this subject, I would probably have chosen photos more carefully, but it's not a significant one, that requires to be perfect. Just another thought. Another memory. It all adds up in the album.

For the longest time I was afraid to use black papers on the page, but I guess it's not that scary if it fits the story. I added a few circle elements that I love to use so much, to dress up a little that black border on a side:

So, if you have too much extra time on hand (yeah, like we all do) just do a page that you wouldn't be upset about if it doesn't turn out the way you wanted it. It is SO freeing!

Happy scrapping everyone! Or should I say - Happy Memory Keeping! It seems like the second term applies to a wider variety of people lately.

Take a few pictures... add a page to your photo book... write a little note of something funny that happened recently but you might forget later (and believe me, you will. I keep finding those little notes of what my kids said, and I read them like I've never heard that before.) Our memory is not 100 percent reliable.

See you later dear friends!
