Go confidently in the direction of your dreams. Live the life you have imagined.
--Henry David Thoreau
As soon as I saw this paper pad, Up, Up & Away, designed by Mindy Terasawa, I knew I had to have it! I love the muted blues and greens…one of my all-time favorite color combinations.
And the birdies are cute too! :)
This book was so much fun to create. Something kinda different for me!
Chipboard with a spiral binding. And…no inking. I must admit it was hard NOT to add ink to the edges or pen-stitching…but I wanted a different look for this book.
I also loved doing the little pocket pages. Fun, fun, fun!
Another “new” thing for me with this book was a different type of adhesive. I used Yes! Paste.
Kinda love it, kinda don’t. It’s a little messy. And, a little hard to get used to but I love the final outcome.
For awhile now, I’ve been wanting to do make LARGER paper bag scrapbooks.
This scrapbook measures 8.5” by 5.5”.
The bags are flat instead “lunch bags” and the larger size gives you more room to add all those special memories!
All changes,
even the most longed for,
have their melancholy;
for what we leave behind is part of ourselves;
we must die to one life before we can enter into another.
- Anatole France
