This layout was for Digital Scrapbooking Day - but it briefly sums up WHY I am am a digital scrapbooker... Briefy!
Journaling:I started scrapping after seeing a friends paper album. Initially it was only a creative outlet and an interesting way of presenting photos.
But then I realised that my children were growing up fast and I needed to capture the every day moments before the memories were lost.
Even more importantly I began to want to leave a little piece of me - my voice, my thoughts, my observations; for my children and their children.
I did not want future generations left wondering who the people in the pictures were.
I love the creative challenge, I love seeing the finished result, as each layout captures a little piece of me... and I admit it is even a form of escapism... Giving this house-bound, mother of three little children WINGS!
Why I digi scrap - because it gives me Wings -
