Life is full of ordinary days. We tend to celebrate the events in our lives. Those big moments. But what about the little daily moments? If we take time to pause, we’ll realize that these are the ones that make up the fabric of our lives. Those joys of family, simple pleasures. There is joy in the ordinary if we take the time to look.
Today’s layout chronicles a simple day in the yard with my son a couple months ago. We didn’t do anything special. Just enjoyed the outdoors and each others company. But it is still worth remembering.
This layout was created for a post today on the Lily Bee Design blog. I love the This & That line as it’s perfect for using on, well, this & that. As you can see I’ve used lots of stamping on this layout. Stamping is a great and inexpensive way to layer images and add accents without adding bulk to a scrapbook page.
Check out the fun graphic style flowers. I think they are cute, whimsical and so easy to create using the banner stickers from the Lily Bee Cardstock Sticker sheets.
Quick Tip: I love using the Ranger Archival Inks on my scrapbook layouts as they are permanent and fade resistant.
