Jen of Avonlea - First ever Saturday Scrap 'n Share!

First ever Saturday Scrap 'n Share!

I am so excited about doing Saturday Scrap n Share! As I said on my other blog, I have been a Creative Memories consultant for over 11 years, so I love scrapbooking, but I have not been able to share my pages until now. We have a wonderful new software program that allows me to make my books digitally, right on my laptop, and I LOVE IT!!! No more mess or scissors, paper, and stickers all over the place! I can sit and do a page while I watch TV with DH, which is awesome!

This is a page I made for a very brave little boy named Caleb who is going through a rough time. His little sister has leukemia, and in addition to worrying about her, he is feeling a little lonely and forgotten in the chaos. So his wonderful Christian mom and dad, who love him a ton, requested that friend send him mail to encourage him. This is what I sent him. I took the photos off of his family's web page and added a scripture that I hoped would encourage him. He is a real knight in shining armor, if ever there was one! So here it is:

Prayers for this brave little knight, his little sister Hannah, and his family would be so appreciated! Thanks!

What an adorable little soldier of God! I love your scrapbooking page!

Thanks for visiting my little blog. To answer your question about a duct tape instruction guide, I asked by dd - and her recommendation is a book called, "Got Tape? Roll out the fun with duct tape!" by Ellie Schiedermayer. Hope your dd enjoys it!

Love and Blessings,
Laurie

Ahh...such a special tribute a little "knight"! I loved reading about the story behind it and what a blessing for the family.

I agree 100% about digital scrapbooking!

OK
Now you have my attention. I have these supplies I bought a while back, but haven't used. I think it's because I can't stand working with scissors and scraps of paper all over, and needing the workspace. Tell me about this...

oh yeah...thanks for your visit and introduction!

That page turned out just perfect! I'm sure it was a big encouragement to Caleb. How sweet!
I have a digital scrapbook program that I use for fun stuff, but haven't actually used it for any scrapbooking yet. With the C.M. one you can have your books printed, correct?
