It had to happen! You know I love all things paper. But my first love of it came in the form of scrapbooking. And it's still very close to my heart for many reasons.
A million photos from generations ago. We all own them. We usually don't know much history behind them or sometimes, even who they are! But what would you give to come across something that was written by or filled with photos and information about someone you've loved in your life. Or would love to have known? What your Great Grandfather was doing, thinking or feeling when that photo was taken. Or when he saw the Grand Canyon for the first time, when he was a young man? When you weren't even here yet.Was it the same feelings and thoughts you have today?
Is that why you feel the way you do about things? Maybe you didn't know the way you value certain things, runs deep through your family? But there he is, practically talking to you from this old memory book. That's what you can give to the people you love. And it starts with simple, beautiful memory things like these.
When I make them myself, my constant struggle is figuring out how to keep things simple but still amazing and engaging. That's just what Karen's Creations has done! Now one of my new favorite inspirations for all things paper. Karen creates amazing scrapbooks, journals, mini memory books, paperbag albums and so much more. Add to that, things that serves a useful purpose too! Double whammy! I love it!!
Karen's awesome creations are as interesting and beautiful to own and reminisce through, as the very things we put in them. Perfect places for our thoughts, experiences, photos, and all things worth keeping and remembering.
The faster we keep moving through life, the more I believe in these memory and photo books. The more the valuable they become, the more I want to share them. And if you own one, and watch closely, you may find how much they seem to mean to the people you share them with.
Check out Karen's Creations for her premade books and journals as well as the opportunity to have her custom make something that would be close to your heart and the hearts of the people you want to share them with.
Her wonderful style makes.....
