Would you like to take a peek inside my family scrapbook?
The Story
Emily's been dancing for about a year or so with Southern Cross Academy of Performing Arts here in Perth. I had this recent photo of her all ready for dance, so I thought it was time to document her love and how she wanted to dance ever since she was tiny!
On her second birthday we gave her a tutu - you should take a look the response:
Journalling: You love to dance and ever since seeing your Aunties in the ballet you’ve longed to have your chance to join in!
Credits: Flergs I love to Dance and in Bloom, Font - my handwriting font from Your Fonts.
I used a very basic design here: an L frame (thanks Noell!). Though I'd like to go back and change the size of the frame and add some more photos of her dancing, it's done and it's one more story told.
I am sure I'll do many more about Emily's dancing, and getting that first page done, just inspires me to do more.

What a wonderful layout! My daughter use to dance and then she got over it. Now she is acting and doing gymnastics! Can you join your group if you are not a digital scrapper

That ballerina layout is almost as adorable as Emily is! Here’s one I did for our wedding anniversary last year. I love see all the photos from different periods of time. Makes my heart happy. Using a digi template made it so easy.
