I was fortunate to be asked to attend a Charity crop this past weekend for the Harvest Hope Food Bank hosted by Stacie Mandrel of Scrappin' Creations. Crafters brought can foods and participated in silent auctions for funding for the food bank.
Everyone was wonderful. I had some time to look, enjoy and be inspired by the layouts, cards and mini-books everyone was creating. I really and truly was inspired. I have a tendency to love one photo layouts with a lot of "art" on the page. So my inspiration is coming out in the question and my answer for this week.
Like all crops, we share our lives with each other through our photos. Some pages were about Disney, Paris or a cruise. Many were about those everyday moments that we have a tendency to forget over time. When someone is looking through and reading my book about me I want them to see those little daily moments that really makes me happy.
I choose this week's question because I want my children and my friends to see what real moments in life make me smile.
