Scrappin' Saturday

Sometimes I feel guilty about all the cards I make. I do send them out to family and friends and make birthday/anniversary cards for all the members of our church on behalf of the church. I know that they are appreciated BUT... sometimes I still feel guilty because I feel like I should be doing more scrapbooking for my kids. So, when Libby tweeted that she was planning on posting a new layout on her blog once a week I thought it was a wonderful idea and told her so. She welcomed me to join her and so here we are! :) I hope this helps me to get at least one page done each week. ;)

You'll probably be seeing lots of layouts about my son Chris for a a while since his album is the one I'm currently working on. The kids all have their 1st year albums done and the 2nd ones are going to cover 1-5 years. I'm at 2 years with Chris's album.

Here's this week's page:

Fun times playing in the rain. :)

Thanks for looking and be sure to see what Libby has come up with!

I'm so glad you'll be sharing your pages with us! I have done only about up to 8 months or so for Liam's scrapbook, and maybe this will kick-start me again, not to mention that I am always dazzled and inspired by your pages, Sarah! Love the stripes and the blues on this one!

What a great layout Sarah! What a great idea to do a layout a week! Don't feel guilty about making cards though you need to do what is in your heart and brings you joy and relaxation, that is what your kids want for you! :>

Love today's offering, that row of tags on the bottom is wonderful. I'm so impressed that you are doing multiple scrapbooks for your kids, how lucky are they to have such a talented mom!
