5 year project done!
Way back in 2005 before we moved to Boston I ordered a scrapbook kit from QVC thinking when we moved to Boston during the winter with it so cold out and not much to do I would complete it. I had already decided I was doing the book on our 2 years in Turkey. I had already started thinking ahead I could do a book for every place we have lived. Ha!! Fast forward to today 5 years later. I had thought about the project on and off (mostly off) over the years, once I sat down and got all the photos I would use, unfortunately we didn't take many pictures in Turkey especially the second year but I had enough to make a book. I think being off this past week and watching so much HGTV really got me in the mood to be creative and crafty. I started this morning and finished just a little while ago. I didn't have a whole lot to work with since my scrapbook skills and supplies are limited but I had so much fun working with what I did have. I might have a little scrapbooking bug, now I'm ready to go shopping for more supplies and starting another book, Hawaii. My desk this afternoon.

Congrats! Maybe it won't take you 5years to do Hawaii now that you're inspired! Sounds like you are on the mend.
Yea! You have to get the 40 percent off coupons for Michaels and the coupons for Hobby Lobby and make the rounds to those places and start collecting some things. They have really cute stickers for Hawaii and everything and everywhere else.
YAY!! I know that must have been a huge sense of accomplishment. I have so many projects that are unfinished. I just don't know where to start. lol!
That's great that you are preserving memories for each place you've lived. That's a great idea!
That's fantastic! Good job! I take tons of pictures of the kids but I don't do anything with them! I need to make some digital scrapbooks with them.
I'd love to see how your book turned out!
very nice! Great Job....
