a weekend at lake tahoe

My family got together for a mini family reunion in June and it was a lovely stay in a cabin on the North Shore. I grew up vacationing at Lake Tahoe but it'd been so long since we'd all been back together that it was nice.

I used a Paislee Press kit that was basically made for a mountain family reunion with the colors and word art- My Tribe papers, journaling cards and elements.

a family reunion recorded

My sister was living in Italy for 18 months as a missionary for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and she finally returned to us last weekend! My family traveled to be together at the airport to welcome her home and of course many photos and videos were taken to record these moments. There's something so right about having your family geographically in the same location.

For interNational Scrapbooking Day (weekend!) I put this two-page layout together of the weekend:

Products used: Welcome Photo Templates and Word Art and My Tribe Journal Cards

Products used: My Tribe Elements and Welcome Photo Templates and Word Art and Rave Reviews word art (I wish I could remember where that airplane card came from! I have so many files I can't find it again!)

My 2016 goals include taking more videos so I compiled a quick highlight video of the airport reunion you can watch (warning: you may need tissues!).

My Interview on Pocket Talk

Hi Scrapping friends!

A few weeks ago, the awesome Jess Forster interviewed me for her podcast, "Pocket Talk." She's interviewed some of my favorites scrapbookers already like Caylee, Rachel, Jessica and Trisha to name a few, so it was honor to be asked! She asked me about my process and what equipment I use, and other fun questions. I love the scrapbooking community and since I don't get the opportunity to chat about scrapbooking in my real, daily (non internet) life, it was so fun and exhilarating to chat with Jess about it! It just went up today and you can check it out HERE.

Have a lovely weekend!
