scrapbooking those with special needs...
Hi everyone, Happy Thursday! We are getting closer to the weekend, YEAH!
The new November/December issue of Creating Keepsakes magazine is out
Have you seen it? It is packed full of inspiration.
I have a two page layout in this issue.
Here is a small peek of my layout titled "One Brave Soldier" which can be found on page 46 of the mag.
This layout is very special to me. The call was for scrapbooking your loved ones with special needs. I wrote about my husbands struggle with combat PTSD from fighting in Afghanistan, his exceptional service (receiving a Bronze star medal) and getting through as a family day by day. I am incredibly lucky to have him as my husband and to have him here with me. It took me a long time to be able to get to the point of talking about our struggles and to be able to get them down on paper, so creating this layout was very therapeutic and beneficial to me. And a good reminder of what I have to be thankful for.
Thanks for letting me share!
Have a wonderful day friends
