DIY Summer Memory Journals
The end of summer is just around the corner and I’ve got mixed feelings about back to school, lol. I’ll be happy to have the kids back in school and busy during the day, but I’m not looking forward to early mornings, homework battles, jam-packed weeks and rushed evenings.
We’ve had a pretty good summer. This year I kept the kids home with me. I’ve managed to keep everyone mostly busy with various activities, trips to the pool and several weekend getaways.
One of the activities my son participated in was a week-long trip to Colorado with the Boy Scouts.
And it turns out my lil missy really depends on him for company and entertainment!
To keep my missy busy on a project while her brother was away, I put her to work making herself a summer memory journal.
Most of my scrapbooking supplies are still in boxes, so I found some cute digital clip art and papers online and created this Sweet Summer Journaling Cards and Embellishment Set.
I’ve uploaded the set (4 pages) for you to create with too! (Find the access link in the supplies list below)
Didn’t her memory book turn out cute!!
