That is the song  I chose, not because it is an all time favorite but because it is stuck in my brain,  but I do like it and find it thought provoking! It kind of fit something too.. right now, as we have just put our apartment up for sale and within one week it is now sold. My, what an emotion full.. the thought of moving! I felt it appropriate to do a proper scrapbook page with journaling to record this moment and put my feelings and thoughts with it down on paper- true scrap booker style.

I have been excited to find a use for these papers, I do like October Afternoon..! I feel that although I use this song I have to say that even if it may be that way in some areas, I don’t entirely agree that we all live in the same little boxes and go to the university and come out all the same.. I enjoyed thinking about my home, family and lifestyle and what it means to me. I believe that we may have things in common but that our lives are so unique and I wanted in this project to celebrate the fun, sweet and intimate moments at home with my own precious little family.

At first I wanted to use a page with some different little houses that would be interactive- little house doors that flip with photos inside.. but then I realize that this is not so easy to do for several reasons.. with problems for the viewer and keeping things in the album sleeves.. I decided then to do a page for my large album with the all important journaling and do a smaller album which gives the interaction I  hoped for the larger page.

It has been a busy week (remember my apartment got sold!) also Alaina and I are busy organizing a day of Scrapbooking  (this Saturday) So I have not been able to finish my challenge and will work on them on Saturday and post again on the completed items.

Enjoy!

Alaina, I challenge you this next week to be a copy cat. Scrapbook a page using the Lay-out (altered and adapted to suit yourself) of a page you find/ have found and admire.
