Yearbook: Handwriting the story

December 20, 2016 by audreykit 4 Comments

 

Hi everyone!  Audrey here with a Yearbook post today.  I had an important story that I wanted to document with this kit, so I am focusing on my journaling for this page.  Sometimes I think my journaling is messy (and I misspell words a lot!) but I remember that when my kids or grandchildren are look at these in the future, they are going to want to see a part of me!  So that is why I choose to hand journal on my pages.

I knew I wanted to use bits of the bright colored papers with the black and white stripe, so I cut out some scalloped shapes from a few different bright prints.  I ground my photos on the black and white paper with a piece of pink paper the same scalloped shape.

 

I kept my embellishments on the left side of the page leaving a lot of white space on the right.

 

The striped lines of the black and white paper provided a great place for journaling.

 

Hope you enjoyed this post and remember to put a little piece of you on your pages!
