Hi everyone, it's Natasja here today!
Do you guys know the feeling where days just fly by? You are busy with the kids, household, work, social life and so on and so on.....and that as in a flash you go....o no!!! I completly forgot about....?!
Well my life has been that hectic the last couple of weeks....and that flash?! Me, a couple of hours ago! I forgot all about this blogpost!! Can you imagin how happy I am with about 9 hours time differance?!
But than again, I didn't had anything to post....so I thought lets put Simple Stories to a test ;) I brought my oldest one to school and my youngest one went for a nap at 9.30 AM.....that should give me 2 to 2.5 hours to put together.....a whole album?!
I still had some fun pictures of a weekend away to friends where the kids were at grandma's and we went to Rotterdam to sit in the sun and just enjoy the day. Those pictures were still at my laptop.
Opening my drawer I grabbed the complete "24 seven" release and put together the "Sn@p Pages" and some pocket pages. Started to pre-embellish the pages with the differant embellishments coming with this release.
When that was put together I hooked up my printer and printed the pictures I wanted to use in the right sizes so I could slip them into the pockets right away.
At 11.35 Aiden woke up....since he (almost) never wakes up crying I took the ten minutes to ad the last few stickers and snap the pictures of the COMPLETED ALBUM I created! Well except for some journaling...
Gotta run now, Aiden just finished his lunch (in which time i put together this blogpost) and now the little boy needs some attention :)
Have a great day you all and don't forget, capturing memories really doesn't need to take to much time!
How truly inspiring! You make it look so simple. As a mother of four, I don't have the luxury of spending a lot of time on layouts , but an entire album?! Good work!

I haven not understood all these scrapbooking-ideas, or can your say life booking, but your work did it!! Now I really understand how great its to greate something from your memories and pictures with papers and embellishments. Here in Finland we also have these Simple Stories 24seven papers available so you really kicked me out to do something too!
