There is something magical about handmade items. Whether it is a tasty sweet treat that no one makes quite like your mom or a beautiful scarf knit with love from a dear friend, the products of our time and energy are meaningful and special.
This idea is exactly what I had in mind when I decided to create {rather than purchase} many of the bits and pieces of the scrapbook I am working on. Adding these little treasures next to the mementos I have collected will add flair and a personalized touch to the project. It was truly a joy to sit back and recall the events of 2012 and attempt to capture the essence of those memories in a small and tangible way.
By making these items, I saved myself the time and energy of going to a craft store to find stickers/cut outs that fit the theme of my page, and I also didn't spend a pretty penny. Simply combining paper, markers, and a little imagination can produce one-of-a-kind additions to any project!
You girls are such an inspiration and fun to follow! Truly enjoyed the prior video and this home made issue. Again, delightful, thank you both for the memories!
