We were on the go the entire month of July! We had several road trips and spent several weeks with our daughter and her family. It was great to have so much grandbaby time! I love documenting everyday life, and the roundup process has given me the tools to keep it simple and meaningful. I've been doing monthly roundups since January 2006 and don't plan to quit now!

I kept this page clean and simple, focusing on the photos and journaling. I love that I can streamline my approach and keep it manageable. I love to mix and match supplies from the monthly memories collection with coordinating themed elements. Each month this year, I plan to release a complete set of designs that will cover everyday memories + some more themes and holidays to match. When paired with the existing MM designs, you will find a really big pool of supplies to pull from!

Papers, cards, and template are from my shop from the Monthly Memories collection. Here are the ingredients I used to create this layout:

• This Month Template Set

• July Memories Pocket Cards

• July Picnic Pocket Cards

• Monthly Memories Solid Papers

• Poppins font for journaling

This is just one of the ways you can do a monthly roundup. The most important part of doing a recap is to document the things that happened. It’s terrific if you can add photos and some of your own words to create something extraordinary! Stay tuned for some brand new additions coming soon to the Monthly Memories collection to help you with your own roundups and recaps!
