Sara's Blog

This weekend we’re celebrating my big brother’s 42nd birthday. This is the guy who pulled my hair, made me eat soap and generally tortured me throughout my formative years. Somewhere along the line, though, he turned out to be a pretty amazing brother, son, husband and dad, so this year I’m giving him a scrapbook of “42 Reasons to Celebrate”, mostly featuring pictures of his kids. I used a lot of papers from the new Masculine sarapapers™, accenting each reason with a punched-circle number and computer journaling to give the book consistency. The amazing part is that I nearly finished the album in two days! (But I did have help: Even though Keith shook his head and called me a scrap-a-holic, he made dinner, did the laundry and even went to the craft store to get refill blades for my paper trimmer.)

PS. Next week I’ll have exact dates for our Australia trip in March—we’re doing a full consumer day in Melbourne! Aussies, I’ll keep you posted. (Marylyn, hope to see you there!)
