Welcoming Other Voices In Your Scrapbooks & Designer Digitals Sale

AE_LoveA_Web


When was the last time you included a different "voice," other than your own, when telling your stories?


Emails, letters, conversations, or simply asking/letting your kids or other family members contribute to your stories is a great way to make your layouts and albums even richer. It's totally possible you have an email or a note that could be used on your next layout.

The layout above includes an email sent to me by one of our babysitters about Anna. It's a great snapshot of what she sees about Anna right now. Little notes like this are treasures - not only does it express how much she cares about Anna but it captures a whole other piece of her life today.

    Ali, she is certainly growing up fast and what a cutie! Your kids are so strong and that is due to you and your husband's love and guidance. Great to see. Love the idea of using other people's words in layouts. Thanks for the idea. Love love the hand drawn sets. I'm learning my pen tablet, but I have a long way to go. So I guess it's off to DD today! Best to you and yours.

    Great idea on the LO- it is a good reminder to me to let other voices contribute to the scrapbook!
    And that picture of Anna is gorgoeus! I cannot believe how fast she is growing! Such a beauty!

    Ali, i just bought the journaling brush set you featured on Anna's pcs here, i dont suppose you could tell me how you colored them and made them appear as a solid on the pic, not just an outline? Thanks, love your design style!
