I have a brand new video tutorial to share and it’s full of tips, ideas, and layouts using my newest Expecting and Baby collections. I hope you enjoy it!

A challenging but gratifying project is to document your own baby years and memories. If you have your own children, you may find yourself only focusing on their memory keeping. But your story is important and definitely worth documenting!

I had so much fun designing the baby collection, and I knew I needed to add a whole lot more to cover pregnancy and more baby memories. I’ve been surprised at how hard it is to find these types of designs for scrapbooking. I’m excited that the expecting cards and 40 weeks cards also come in transparent background.png files so they can be used as stamps as well.

I’ve got the month of March all wrapped up and I love the month-in-review approach more than ever! If you aren’t familiar with my monthly roundups, check out this post. There is even a video tutorial included! I had a lot of great photos from March, so a two-page spread was a great format.

It’s time to do a month-in-review of March. I love to take a memory inventory at the end of the month and document it all to add to our family albums. This is my 17th (SEVENTEEN!) year of doing monthly roundups. I started this routine in January of 2006, and it’s my most helpful tool for meaningful and easy memory keeping.

As I’m getting ready to become a Grandma for the first time, I have to admit that a lot of my thoughts are centered on babies. We are all pretty excited around here and can’t wait to meet our grandson in early August!

March is ending in just a little more than a week, so I’m starting to think about how I want to remember this month. I want to be sure I have pictures and words to document the memories of March, and I’m giving you a gentle reminder to do the same. So it’s a great time to start thinking about the monthly roundup!

I’m so excited to share my newest tutorial. Weather impacts our stories and often sets the scene for many of our life memories. Let me show you how to include all types of weather moments in your memory keeping.

I’m traveling right now and will be for the next few days so I apologize that I don’t have much happening on my blog this week. I definitely have some great things planned for when I return.

I’ve got the month of February all wrapped up and I’m loving the month-in-review approach more than ever! If you aren’t familiar with my monthly roundups, be sure to check out this post. There is even a video tutorial included! I had a lot of stories to tell from February, so my pages have a lot of journaling on them. Those are my favorite kind of layouts because I love including so many details that I know we will all be grateful for when we look at these pages in the future.

It’s time to do a month-in-review of February. I love to take a memory inventory at the end of the month and document it all to add to our family albums. This is my 17th (SEVENTEEN!) year of doing monthly roundups. I started this routine in January of 2006, and it’s my most helpful tool for meaningful and easy memory keeping.

Can you believe that February ends in 5 days? Well, it's true, and I'm here to remind you to be sure you are taking the time and actions to document your life this month. To make the memory roundup even better this year, I've committed to sending a little nudge out into the universe when the month is coming to a close.
