Monday Giveaway : Studio Calico

Hi Ali!
I love the flexibility of memory keeping right now. There is no right or wrong way. It can fit anybodies' personality, budget, or time.
Thanks for all you have done to share our passion with the world!

My favorite thing is that I can share my perspectives and insights of my grandchildren, in the years to come. Not just the journaling but the perspective of the photographs I take of each of them.

My favorite thing about memory keeping right now is it reminds me of what a good time I had at some summer activities I have been able to do. Summer is a busy time for me at work and I don't get the chance to do things a lot of people get to do like take vacations. I can only be limited to a day trip not too far away in case I have to go in to work. It takes me back to how fortunate I was to be able to do something because some people don't even get to do that.

My favorite thing right now is buying new product. I go thru these periods of not buying anything,,, and then buying EVERYTHING. ;-)
Thanks for the chance to win!

Hi Ali,
Thanks for a great give away and the constant inspiration as always :)
My fav at the moment is doing some layouts that incorporate photos and memories of my three children as I have had my third child recently, last month. Love looking back at my old layouts too.

oMG 1622 comments... is that a record?

love studio calico!!! my favorite thing to do right now involves journal writing-I've always been kind of bad about in depth story telling, so I am keeping a journal or memories!

Oh man, you have a ton of comments... you know its a great blog then. Please keep up the awesome work...
I heart the set by the way...

My favorite thing is capturing and recording the everyday little things. I started about three years ago and when I look back, all my details I wrote about make that time period all come back to me again.

Hi Ali,
My favorite thing has to be the fact that memory keeping lets me indulge in aesthetics, when so much of our lives tends to be focused on 'getting things done'. In the end, I guess it provides balance! Thanks for the giveaway, Amy

My favorite thing about memory keeping is looking back at my earlier albums and seeing how little my children are, they grow so fast and you forget about things like what their favorite color was at four years old, or what they did on their 3rd birthday. It's all there in their albums.

my favorite thing?.... I'm the only one doing it (in my family, that is) I love that i'm the only ont doing it... i love looking back on the things my kids say...LOVE THAT... I love everything that a simple photo will bring back to mind... love that my children enjoy looking at their scrapbooks and the conversations they bring about. Love looking back and seeing how my style has changed over the years - and being TOTALLY Okay with that. Love looking at photos and dreaming of the pages I could make - the memories a simple photo will bring up - and the possibility of what I could do with those memories...

Im falling in love with journaling, just writing fuels my creativity.

LOVE this kit - how generous, Ali :)
Right now, my favorite thing is getting down quotes/moments that normally I would forget.

My favorite thing about memory keeping is being able to sit with my children & look back & relive those wonderful memories.

Showcasing my family through art has given me a creative outlet that satisfies on multi-levels. I have such a collection of precious memories, and being able to couple them with my artistic "vision" is so gratifying, and fulfilling. It gives me joy to know that long after I am gone my creations will be shared & not only will my family know how deeply I loved (and celebrated them) they'll know me.

sharing the memories with friends. :D

I've always had a good memory. Everyone is always asking me about dates and other details. I like being the memory keeper for my family. :D

4 different people reminising over the same event in a scrapbook, and getting 4 different perspectives...

I like the fact that its all mine. The one thing I don't have to share with my husband and son... pink papers, and luscious ribbons and piles of felt. I make it for us, but I do it for me :)
