Wow! Can you believe that 2020 is already halfway over?
With world events and major changes in our daily lives, I was uncertain how to begin documenting this year. I wanted to find a way to capture my family’s story with hope and optimism. I wanted color and whimsy; I wanted a way to stretch my creativity. When Andrea from The Fairytale Club debuted the “Together Apart” collection and the new acrylic albums, I knew I had to have it all!
The acrylic album is the perfect color, size and quality. It fits my pocket pages and bits of ephemera. The “Together Apart” collection is full of gorgeous colors, patterns and sentiments. It is cheerful and feminine, but still perfect to document the everyday. I loved creating shaker pockets using pocket pages and packaging from collection. I pulled some vintage elements in with ephemera and a cute zipper package turned sequin shaker.
Creating this album has been challenging and fun! I’ve enjoyed putting each page together, pulling from the “Together Apart” collection and others. I’ve included pictures of my family enjoying the little things, making the best of every situation and reveling in extra time spent together.
With the year only halfway over, I know we’ll have plenty more to celebrate and I can’t wait to document it all!
