An Easter to Remember

Springtime and the Easter holiday are filled with occasions spent with loved ones that are priceless to capture and preserve! After years away from scrapbooking and saving my family’s memories in a meaningful way, I found Project Life by Stampin’ Up! In just a couple of evening, I was able to catch up on scrapbooking 6 months of memories in a meaningful way with lots of journaling, pictures, and of course cute accents! With Stampin’ Up Project Life, it’s as easy as printing out your pictures, sliding them into a variety of pre-arranged sheet protectors. Then, just slip in adorable designed papers made for the Project Life sheet protectors in fun prints and patterns. After those two easy steps, it’s time to journal and embelish the pages as much or as little as you want. Because all the hard part of scrapbooking is eliminated, I can put together a whole layout in just a few minutes and keep on going! Visit Stampin’ Up to see all their Project Life and other scrapbooking selections and get started preserving your own unforgettable memories!
