    I haven't been around (anywhere, really!) for the past year - and I haven't scrapped ANYTHING since late October. But tonight we were all up in the kids playroom, cleaning out and re-organizing and we all got lost looking at the past 8 years worth of scrapbooks. The kids just couldn't.get.enough of it! They loved seeing pics of them much younger, and I loved reading about things I've already long forgotten! It was a huge kick in the pants to me, seeing how much they already appreciate it and being reminded once again how quickly time passes and those moments just disappear.

    Sooo.... one set of fonts, cool torn frames, the Teak Tree papers and accessories and Valorie's sprinkles later...I'm off to scrap!

    just thought I'd drop in and say hello while I'm waiting for my downloads :giggle

    I always say that there is nothing like looking through my old scrapbook pages to get me motivated to scrap more!

    Welcome back--and looking forward to your pages!

    Welcome back, Beckie! Seeing your kids actually LOOK at your scrapbooks is definitely a way to get reinspired! I love that my daughter looks at my new scrapbook pages on Flickr and comments.
