Simple Scrapper Blog Hop + Giveaway




Good morning! Thanks for stopping by! Today I am participating in the Simple Scrapper Blog Hop and sharing the layouts I created using the Simple Scrapper Templates available to their members!


My first layout uses one of the templates from the May collection from Simple Scrappers. I had snapped this photo back in December of my grandmother's hands. She is well into her eighty's and I know we probably won't have her around for much longer. This photo sat on my desk, literally for months, while I decided what I wanted to do with it. I ended up journaling about the things her hands had 'saw' throughout their life: she lived in the depression, buried a child and husband, loved on great grand kids.

I love the simplicity of it + how quickly it came together using the May template.


My layout for this month's Story Starter is based off a free template that debuted in October 2012. I choose to journal about how awesome my husband has been this past year. I have been struggling this past year, and Alex has been my rock. He is most definitely awesome.

I have loved using templates from the Simple Scrapper Premium Membership.
