For my creation I chose to make a "Remember" book for my daughter. I have always clipped sayings, important reminders of those everyday thoughts we sometimes forget! When I started Pinterest, I began a board to pin all the wonderful saying that I want to remember and want to make sure I pass along to my daughter! I'm sure through the years she has heard many of them! But a book to browse and remember is a good thing!
I started with a Grand Large Labels chipboard album from Want2Scrap. I covered each page with paper from K&Company Spring Blossom cut with Spellbinders Grand Label die. The front cover embellishment is die cut using Spellbinders Grand Labels and Labels Fourteen. See that fantastic bling? Nesta Bling is a fab new embellishment that fit Spellbinder dies! YES! That's right! Sigh! Life is good!
The book is a work in progress. I have added memorable sayings to three of the pages so far. This particular page also has another Labels Fourteen die cut with awesome NestaBling! Clipping and adhering pictures, favorites words in magazines etc in those large grey paged scrapbooks bring back heartfelt memories for sure! Remember those flimsy grey paged scrapbooks? We certainly did not have fabulous goods we have today! And that's a good thing!
And the following page! I edged each page with white craft ink to soften the paper a bit. This page includes one of my all time favorite sayings! Grace isn't a little prayer you say before receiving a meal, it's a way to live! Love it!
Another page! I have more to go on this page as well as finishing the remaining pages! I'll share as I complete them! I hope this book will be browsed often! And maybe some of these thoughts will be passed along to our daughter's children! Enjoy the hop! Take good care!

Barb, what a great idea!! Love all the details you added and such a creative way to pass on those little things. TFS!
Funny, Barb...these are not my colors but when I see how you put them together..they just might become them. Your project makes me want to get out of my comfort color zone! Thank you!
Marvelous idea and such a wonderful thing to pass on to your daughter! It is beautiful & so are the sayings you have included. Vicki R
I love this project! What a great idea and she will cherish it. Just beautiful!
What a wonderful idea! I am doing something similar by collecting family stories. I come from a large family on my mother's side (she had 8 brothers and 2 sisters). Only one of the boys is still living but I have lots of cousins with lots of stories. Hope I have time left to get that done, not getting any younger! Love your project.
Oh, Barb, I LOVE the album!!! The ribbon flower is stunning! And the quotes inside the album just made my day! As a mom to two sons, I laughed soooo hard on the quote re moms of sons 'cause I could totally relate to that :-) Thank you!!!
Such a wonderful idea, and the book looks awesome and so does the pages you´ve done sofar. I´m sure, your daughter will treasure this later on in life, as it´s such a unik book that can´t be bought anywhere. Awesome project, I just love it.

Be sure to add the phrases that you say often. I remember how often those well spoken phrases would come to mind. Each time she looks at those familiar phrases, she will think of you. I was surprised when all of these well heard phrases would pop into my head. They were implanted without my realizing it and pop out at the appropriate time.
What a great idea and I am sure your daughter will love it. Outstanding cover, lovely colors and layers - these products just work so well together as they should!
I love the heart of a mother! inspirational, beautiful, encouraging, training...your book encompasses all that and more. wow.
