Monday Giveaway : Studio Calico

My favorite thing about memory keeping is recording my family's everyday history. Sure I scrap the big events, but finding interest and beauty in the everyday is what thrills me most.

My favorite thing about memory keeping right now is the same thing its been for 2 years now. Being able to look back over my photos and layouts and remembering events and the little things that have happened. It gives me a sense of accomplishment. It reminds me how great my life has been. Thanks for offering up such beautiful kits!

Right now I'm in a scrapping lull. My favorite thing right now is watching my kids look through the pages that I have finished, and how much they love it. It helps me look forward to after we move, to settling in and making more.

It's the way we can remember all the little details of everyday. We can look back and laugh and giggle at how things have changed.

My favorite thing about memory keeping is to keep the little drawings my son made there and there on every scrap of papers he can find !! I keep them on the fridge to smile each time I see them ! How is it possible to grow so fast ??! Sorry for my poor englsih ! I'm a french speaker !

My favorite thing about memory keeping is being able to document the little things in our lives and my daughter's growing up: like how she says some words wrong but awfully cute, her nicknames different people have given her. I like doing these pages because it gives me the opportunity to document these things but also include some everyday photos I may not otherwise have a spot for.

Hi Ali! Thank you for continuing to be a source of inspiration and creativity.
My favorite thing about memory keeping right now is Discovering. I am discovering who I am and who I am evolving into, I am re-discovering the world through my toddler son's eyes AND I am now discovering the world of digital and hybrid scrapbooking.

I just have to tell you again how much I enjoy coming to this website. I learn things about new products. You inspire me with your ideas, and I love hearing about your family.

Hi! I've been scrapbooking in one form or another when I was in high school, starting as a member of our school yearbook. I've always been fascinated by photography in all forms, and the hobby still brings me that creative outlet.
After taking a hard look at this giveaway, this set would go perfect for my travel pages...which I'm trying hard to catch up on...I have lots of stuff accumulated from traveling around the country and am trying to empty out my accordion file!
I believe life is a gift, and it would do us all injustice to let it just pass us by!

I know from my own childhood, the things I remember the most are the things that were captured in photos. There's just something amazing about the ability of photos to bring back recollections of times past in a way nothing else can. I want my kids to be able to recall all the silly, crazy and sweet things they did. My scrapbooks are the keys to unlocking these potentially lost memories.

My favorite thing right now is that insipration is everywhere! I have been reading lots of books lately about scrapbooking, and learning how to look at things differently. I am learning that anything I see can be turned into a layout.

Please enter me in the drawing for the kit - love it!! Making mini albums is my current passion.

It is such a great way to share yourself and your family. My daughter, sister, nieces, mom and a few friends have started some type of memory sharing and we have gotten together for crops and shopping and remembering. Thanks so much for sharing your talent is such a generous way.

My favorite thing about memory keeping is that it helps me to live in the moment. I love Matt 6:25-34, which talks about how worrying about the future doesn't add a single minute to your life. Scrapbooking helps me focus on the gifts of one particular moment, the great country that we live in, the ordinary gifts of family life and the divinely complex beauty and order in nature. My most precious pictures are just the family together at home, talking, eating and being together.

it helps me focus on the N*O*W...living in the M*O*M*E*N*T (which is very, very hard for me to do), appreciating the L*I*T*T*L*E things in life. my children are growing so fast and i want to C*A*P*T*U*R*E and S*A*V*O*R this time and share the M*E*M*O*R*I*E*S.
(besides i have no mind left (since i have kids...wink!)...)
thanks for the chance!
