The rules are all on Nini's blog. It was a fun template to play with. Here's my version:

The hard part of doing a year in review page for me is trying to narrow down the photos. It's really hard for me to get just one photo per month since there are always certain moments you want to capture during a month. What do you think?

Take a shot at the challenge - at the very least, you'll have a quick summary of your year!

Finally!

ninigoesdigi re-released Bright Side of Life, a fun, uplifting kit. I decided to use this collection to document a positive experience I had recently: my son's first haircut without any tears, screaming, or kicking!

While this is not a huge milestone of any sort, it is still nice to capture some of the every day things. That is what I love most about scrapbooking - being able to look through some of these memories even a year or two later. 

Far Far Away Collab

Happy DSD (aka Digital Scrapbooking Day)! Ninigoesdigi and Designed by Soco released a wonderful new collab yesterday - Far Far Away, available for purchase at both MScraps and Oscraps. These two designers created a mix of pieces easily used for travel creations and living abroad.

This collection includes everything from alphabets to templates, along with the usual elements, papers, and journal cards.

I had a great time searching through what travel pics I could find (they are spread across a few external hard drives) to create a sampling of my travels:

And, if you are newsletter subscribers of each of these designers, you'll get a special add-on freebie (one from ninigoesdigi, one from Designed by Soco) to add to the collection!

Along with this new release, ninigoesdigi also has new packs for the November Memory Mix - Cozy Cocoa!

The colors remind me a bit of peppermint cocoa, and I had the perfect photo for it. Unfortunately, I couldn't find my original photo - just the one I had posted on Instagram.

Enjoy your DSD and Happy Scrapping!
