more monthly moments: janaury
February 01, 2015
I have a layout to share with you today that uses my Monthly Moments: January collection!
You can purchase the Monthly Moments products over at Papertrey Ink. There's an easy to find tab for scrapbooking right on the front page. Click that and it will take you right where you need to go! Another easy way to find the Monthly Moments products is to just type "Monthly Moments" right into the search box at the top of the page at the Papertrey Ink website.
I put together another snowy layout with pictures from a few years back of me and my girls snowshoeing. They had just gotten new snowshoes for Christmas from my parents and were trying it out for the first time on the lake that my parents live on. It is so much fun to go back through pictures from past years to make a layout with. I love to see how my girls have changed and grown since these pictures were taken.
It is great to keep current with scrapbook projects, but I do love the part of going through older photos when I decide to do a layout with pictures from some time ago. There are no rules on how you should scrapbook your photos or the order that you should scrapbook them in at all! Do what works for you. I jump around all the time doing things that just happened and older events all the time.
I used one of the journal cards that I shared on this post during the January release countdown. I love that I had these cards already made up. I just added it right to the layout - this definitely inspires me to create some more journal cards so that they are ready to go!
Here is some journaling on one of the cards from the Monthly Moments: January journal card collection. I typed the journaling up with my type writer, added the year and "bundle up" sentiment, and added a few stamped embellishments. I stamped the snowman on kraft cardstock and punched them out with a circle punch and then little circles are from the Monthly Moments: Journal Card 8 die that I stamped with the tiny snowflakes in Fresh Snow ink. All of the images and the "bundled up" sentiment are from the Monthly Moments: January set.
I just love this picture of Hana snowshoeing out onto the lake! I took one of the tiny circles and stamped "love this" from the Simply Framed set on it and added that and some more little snowflake circles onto the photo.
On the picture of me and my girls, I added the "we were here" sentiment from the Simply Framed set onto a little circle and also a few more snowflake circles.
Visit the other members of the Monthly Moments team for some more inspiration from them for this month: Danielle, Melissa, and Ashley.
Happy scrapbooking and please share the pages that you have created with me. I would love to see them!
