Had last week off, b/c I have vacation time to 'use or lose'. So I took my big box of MJF memorabilia
and an inexpensive sketch book from Border's And just started filling it up!
 
And a nice old expandable scrapbook for cards and thicker stuff:
 
Yippee! I think Nancy Jo is right about the quitting work thing! It's sort of like summer break 24/7! There's so much fun stuff to do!

Shirley Jean - The old scrapbook holds a lot of thick stuff, like the pretty handmade valentines, because it is held together with gussets and tied with a yarn like string. So I can loosen it. It is pretty thick, though. The other book is about halfway filled and is a little thick, but not bad yet. I sit heavy books on top after I glue things in to sort of flatten it somewhat.

I love what you've done. I just recently picked up an inexpensive scrapbook to do just what you have done. I save all my things from farmgirls and want to put it all in one beautiful book. Thanks for sharing yours.

Janice, that is so cute! Were you able to fit all your stuff in one scrapbook? Yes, you are going to be one happy lady when you can have the summer break 24/7. LOL So true!

So cute! It's always nice to have time to do those simple little things you love and feel like you accomplished something fun at the same time... I have my farmgirl journal scrapbook where I put all my magazine clippings and recipes. I also had a day this week to sit down and work on it... it always feels so nice to sit and relax to do those things!
