Scrapping the Little Things Monday!

Happy Monday!

Today is Scrapping the Little Things Monday on the My Creative Time blog. I made a quick page with some photo's that my brother and SIL had taken of the boys last week. Aren't they sweet!?!

I think I prefer the Simple Stories 6x8 pages over Project Life's 12x12 pages. I will still probably use the 12x12 ones, but I am finding more and more that I am favoring the smaller ones.

Happy Monday!


Today is Scrapping the Little Things Monday over on the My Creative Blog. I did a quick layout with a photo of my brother and nephew at a local railway museum. Our little Zachary is a bit obsessed with anything pertaining to trains, so this day was full of much excitement.
