New Monthly Calendar and Review Templates

Liz has three new template sets for our calendar topper and monthly review projects. All of these new releases are 20% off through Sunday, August 28, 2016.

2017 August Templates is the new set of calendar toppers, grid, and card. I love how there is a 12x12 page included here.

August Month in Review Template is a 2-page spread for scrapping a complete overview of your month. But of course, you can use them for scrapping events, or travel, or just about anything. They are perfect for people who want to focus on the photos.

August Insta Review Template is a new design for scrapping 24 small phone snapshots. The simple designs here really lets the photos shine, but also add just the right touch of embellishment.

Donna has been scrapping an embellished calendar grid each month.

Christine is catching up on 2012 photos! She captured a bunch of fun candid moments from the month.

Week 33: School, Bike Rides and Cousins

 Weekly Life Templates 9 by Scrapping with Liz
Memory Pockets Monthly August '16 Discover & Add-Ons Available at TLP

This week was full of activity. Lydia got a new bike for her birthday so we did a lot of bike riding. My oldest went to first day at her new co-op and is officially in high school! Where did the time go? We sewed, did some fun art projects and of course school was a part of all of it. Then we had cousins over to spend the night before they get back into their normal school routine. Then we had even more cousins over the next night. There was a lot of fun going on in our house all week.

I kept this week's page super simple. 1. Time. I didn't have a lot of time this weekend to scrap so I just put this page together really quickly. 2. I find that I really do like simple, especially for these weekly pages.

I was also reminded about why I scrapbook. My kids have been looking through our albums all week. They love it. They love reading their stories. They love seeing pictures of our old house, of old friends, of events they forgot about. They love when I tell them about a picture or event. It really brings it all together for them. They get to be reminded of how their story is unfolding.

2016 Week 32: Sunrises, Birthdays & Fun

This week was full of so much goodness. An early morning hike with friends to watch the sunrise over the mountains, dinner made by my daughters, school, birthdays and more. I love sitting down every Saturday night, going over my pics from the week and putting together a page. It gives me a reminder that my life is blessed. So blessed.

It was another week filled with a lot of different fun activities. We are winding up summer and slowly getting into the school work but also trying to enjoy a last few summer activities. We tubed down the river, hung out with friends, enjoyed the Family Festival at our church, and celebrated dad's birthday along with normal activities around the house.

I'm loving the August '16 Discover MPM kit at TLP. The colors are bright and bold, but also neutral to be used with everyday life photos.

The last week in July is always filled with lots of celebrating. Our wedding anniversary, my birthday and then hubby's birthday all falls within a few days of each other.  You can take a look at the page to see what we did to celebrate....a simple, but fun celebration.

Then in other big news we got our LOA (letter of approval) from China! China has said we can officially adopt Abigail and Isaac. Now we just have some immigration paperwork and travel approval stuff. It'll just be a couple more months and they will be coming home!

Most of my pics this week were taken with my DSLR. I need to remind myself everyday that I love it so much better than my phone camera. I don't really notice it until I go to look at my pictures at the end of the week. Hoping to remember to take more photos with it!
