One of My Favorite Layouts

This is a LO I created from my monthly scrapbook kit subscriptions from Scrapbook Chicks. The photo is a picture of me and my BF (and old roomate) sitting on the steps outside our old apratment in Montreal. Sadly this picture was not taken while we were still residents of the old apartment. We took a trip back to Montreal 3 years after we graduated and wandered around our old stomping grounds. We couldn't pass up an opportunity to take a picture in front of our apartment that saw our laughter during the best of times and saw our tears during the worst of times. For the title of my page I used a song title: The Old Apartment, by  Barenaked Ladies. While the song was perfect just for the photo, it was even more perfect since we are huge BNL fans. This LO is one of my favorites, not just because I like the way it came out, but more for the stories and memories we shared in The Old Apartment.

Love Club Creating Keepsakes

Before I share my recent sewing projects I wanted to talk about scrapbooking. Creating Keepsakes magazine has started a community for scrapbookers called Club Creating Keepsakes. I joined as a premium member since you get a magazine subscription and a ton of freebies. While I love my Tips & Tricks magazine and the other freebies I got with my membership, my favorite part of this community is the Message Board. There are so many wonderful peeps out there and the MB is full of wonderful ideas and tips for scrapbooking. I am currently participating in two swaps, a journal spot swap and a recipe card swap, and it has been so much fun. I can't wait to receive my fun scrappy mail and see what everyone else has done.

If you are a fan of Creating Keepsakes and you haven't checked it out yet, I recommed that you do. Here's the link. http://clubcreatingkeepsakes.com/
