Make It Meaningful #12 Scrapbook Process Video: Hello There

Welcome back to another "Make It Meaningful" scrapbook process video hosted by Two Peas in a Bucket. This week all of the Garden Girls' projects focus on the idea of "Capture." Do you ever take a bunch of photos and then later discover something you didn't notice when you were taking the photos? Check out the look on my son's face in this photo. He's not too pleased with this photo shoot at the moment as it was bitter cold that day. While I have several other photos where both kids are smiling, this one spoke more to me. How can you capture more photos that are true to personalities? Be sure to watch the video below.

"Just Ask Jen" Scrapbook Process Video: How to Create an Instagram Album

You can watch the entire start-to-finish process video HERE on the SCT Youtube channel or below:



I also used the "Jet Set" collection papers and alphabet stickers for this album, as well as, a stitching template from We R' Memory Keepers as well. I love the look of hand stitching on a project. These albums come together very easily.

You can find some of these albums HERE at 2Peas. If they are out of stock, simply click the "notify me" button to learn when they are back in stock. I especially love the gold one.
