Today, I’m revisiting a tutorial from December 2021 that will be especially helpful for documenting holiday memories. In this post, I share 17 different holiday layouts and walk you through my approaches to each one. It’s like taking a festive stroll through some of my scrapbooks. I hope you find it inspiring and enjoyable!

If you’re looking for a creative way to preserve festive memories, the Waterlogue app is a fantastic tool to transform your holiday photos into stunning watercolor-style art pieces. Here’s how to use this app to turn your seasonal snapshots into one-of-a-kind keepsakes.

December is a wonderful month to focus on memory keeping because there are so many opportunities to capture both the festive and the everyday moments. It’s a time of year when traditions, celebrations, and little joys come together to create something truly special.

I’ve been voting by mail for years and have always felt a little left out that I didn’t get an “I Voted” sticker. I’ve seen a lot of posts online from people who have mentioned that they will miss this little token of celebration this year as they vote by mail. Even the included stickers aren’t all that exciting, and I can’t print them out for creative projects. So, I created this file of printable “I Voted” stickers to share with all of you. No strings attached. Just a free download. I simply hope these will inspire you to vote!

As I mentioned in my last post, I’m really working on adding more designs and tools to help myself and others document monthly memories. These also are great for daily, weekly, or any type of scrapbooking. I’m excited to share them with you! I also have a brand new free download for you so be sure to check out the entire post.

(And if you like free stuff, I’ll be including another gift in my newsletter so be sure you are signed up!)

When the new year hit, I knew that one of the projects I really wanted to tackle was to make my habit of doing a monthly roundup even better. I wanted to provide the best designs and memory keeping tools to help others embrace this really accessible way to document their lives.

Do you ever have a big idea that keeps going and going? That’s what my design brain has been doing lately - just pumping out the ideas! I’m working on a bigger (and yet more simple) approach to my monthly roundups and suddenly, a brand new collection came to life. So fun!

Now that we are a few weeks into 2022, it’s a good time to think about how you want to approach memory keeping for the year ahead. You don’t have to have a full fledged plan at this point, but it’s nice to think about some general ideas.

I don’t really feel ready to start the new year until I get my last roundup done from the previous one. It felt good to finish up December of 2021 and know that I did a roundup (and scrapbook pages) for every single month last year! This is a habit that I love so much and that really makes my memory keeping a lot easier.

Here’s what our December looked like:
