JOURNALING:
Lately I have been caught between the digital and traditional scrapbooking world. Tho some might argue there are not THAT many differences between the two, there is a huge difference I have noticed. When I create digital layouts my journaling is short and to the point. While on my traditional layouts I share of myself, my heart and my faith. And I decided I need to be more consistent between the two. For even now, there are not enough hours in the day for me to tell of all the stories I want to share, all the blessings in my life, or all the family history that needs to be recorded and preserved. For my scrapbooking is not just for the here and now. It is also for my great-great-great grandchild who will some day open up one of my albums and will not only come to know me and my beliefs, but learn of their heritage and their history by what they see and read on my layouts. THIS is why...
