Studio 52: Week 11–Oh, the Places We’ll Go!

Studio52 Week 11

Our Topic: We got to thinking here at Finders Keepers (always a dangerous proposition) and realized that, although we generally consider ourselves homebodies (we like to be coooozy….), we also spend a good amount of time exploring new places with our children. (Aren’t children great for getting us outside of our comfort zones?) So we…

Best Day Ever

Best Day Ever

Hello, everyone! Sarah recently came across these pictures while cleaning and was instantly smitten. Here’s the backstory: The day after their family’s Halloween party a couple of years back, they found this stick-on mustache someone had left behind and proceeded to spend the day passing it back and forth and taking turns striking poses.

Our Topic: Laugh with us for a minute: hahahahahahahahohohohohohoheeheeheeheehee whew! That felt great. This layout was really too much fun.

Studio 52: Week 8 – 99% Inspiration

Our Topic: This week we gave some thought to the things that inspire us. Like last week’s music post, the hardest part about this was narrowing it down.

Studio 52: Week 6 – Then & Now

Our Topic: This week we had fun with a “then and now” spread, featuring Rachel. The hardest part of this kind of scrapbook page is that, back when we were young, in fact, until a relatively recent time, pictures weren’t stored digitally. So this involves digging around in some boxes to find the “then” pictures…
