I’ve been loving reading Stephanie’s blog about the Scrap Happy project over at Scrapworthy lives, so I was thrilled when I found out she’s got a blog hop going. You have probably found me from Kiss and Tell Scrapbooking.
This month the theme is:
Contemplate the Heavens
Boethius: “Contemplate the extent and stability of the heavens, and then at last cease to admire worthless things.”
Scrapbooking with a feeling of wonder helps me stay peaceful. Here’s a page I created back in 2008 in my early scrapbooking days. I love that over 3 years later I still love this page – the colours and sentiment have me ready for spring to bloom!
This year our back yard doesn’t have an almond tree – in fact it looks a little like this:
But a lot more level now! I must take more photos.

Love your layout! The colors are so pretty. Funny that you say what keeps you focused on the big picture? Ha. I just realized recently that I haven't been focused on the big picture, had to take a step back and take a deep breath. Feeling much better now that I'm focusing on the positive….. 🙂
Beautiful layout! Taking some time to go through my photos, scrapbook, and blog help me keep the big picture in mind.
Lovely post. 🙂 It is a nice idea to bring back an old layout.
Thanks for participating! I like that you used an older layout! Great idea!
Your layout is lovely! What keeps me focused on the the big picture? – it's a constant struggle, but I try my best to sort through the small things and toss them aside. That lets me focus on what's really important.
Oh I'm nit surprised you still Love the layout, it's really lovely
