Hello, FRIENDS! Today is going to be a BUSY day around here. No, like, totally for reals. I have four, count 'em FOUR exciting posts to share with you throughout today and tomorrow! We are celebrating (inter)National Scrapbook Day and we are doing it in STYLE here on Just Jingle! Lots of inspiration, lots of prizes, and LOTS of fun!
Now, let me remind you, I am a card maker. Yes, it is true, I began this journey as a scrapbooker, but the simple truth is, I was WAY better at card making and they sort of took over my life. But, JUST for you guys, I decided to create an actual scrapbook layout since, well, it is National Scrapbook Day. For reals, I totally did it. (This is a rare sighting folks, I assure you! You may want to take out your cameras, however, do so slowly and quietly as to not frighten the card maker.)
I was inspired by my amazingly talented friend Beck Beattie to give a watercolor background a shot and then layer stuff over it. I am a clean and simple girl to the core, so I kept it fairly simple, but I absolutely LOVE this photo and I actually am thrilled with how this layout highlights it. It tells the story. My story. Our story. And that, my friends, is what scrapbooking is all about, isn't it? For reals, though. I do have some hidden journaling on the pull out tag behind the photo, but I wanted to keep the page within the space I had intended and kind of like that the journaling is just my own, tucked away in there.
Click on over to the Bazzill Basics Facebook Page for more inspiration and for your chance to win this AWESOME prize!!!! Also, don't forget to share your projects on our Facebook Page or to Instagram tagging us @bazzillbasicspaper #bazzillbasics. We can't WAIT to see what you create!
Be sure to check in throughout today and tomorrow for lots of (inter)National Scrapbook Day fun!
Have a Happy!
