So I had the wonderful opportunity to contribute to the PageMaps November Newsletter. I am a huge fan of Becky and PageMaps, following both online and through Memory Makers Magazine. She sent me a half-map, which is a size I don't usually use when scrapping. But, isn't that what life is all about, trying new things. My layout is about Steve and I. How I believe that we need to embrace all the positives, hold hands through the rough patches, find solace with each other in times of stress. We adore each other, but life can get in the way. The journaling means a lot to me. It reads: I believe our marriage is influenced by our state of mind. The choices we make. Do we compete or support? Push or pull? Laugh or cry? When it's either for better or for worse, I choose for better. Just by adopting this frame of mind, I have seen a change. More laughing, less bickering. Can it be that easy? I think so!!
The November issue of ScrapStreet.com Magazine is also up! I am never disappointed. If you are a digi scrapper, this is also a magazine for you!!! I had the opportunity to feature many wonderful artists and friends, (Go Jenn & Kristii) in my journaling article. I also wrote an article featuring the talented gals from The Journaler's Junction! Go check it out!
