Creative Project: Holiday 2008 Album (DONE)

I had time to finish another book before August ended! It really helps a lot to have the photos organized already (I have this organized for two years now, never really got around to finishing it) so all I did was just choose a template. Biograffiti’s Focus Template Album was my choice, and if you ever get to shopping around for templates, she currently has an offer to buy her whole store for $25. (It’s a GREAT deal – I already have used her other album for our Guangzhou album).

My goal is to really finish holiday albums before December of this year and so far I only have 2011 left. (Insert CLAP here!) I am going to slow down with albums after that because I have two other writing projects (which can become albums too) that I plan to do before 2012 ends.

My plan is to share my album-making process soon. I also realized that when making holiday albums that 1) you don’t need many Christmas kits – I realized I tended to stick to the same kits over and over again (KCB’s Christmas kits at SSD primarily) and 2) writing memories/blogging/documenting it right after it happened is way better than just trying to remember 🙂

A sample of the pages I’ve made:

Aggie Aviso describes herself as her family’s storyteller and memory keeper. A mom to two kids ages 14 and 8, she is certainly past the age of sleepless nights and adorable pigtails. However, motherhood stays exciting, more meaningful and yes, more challenging. She takes it all in stride, knowing fully well that moments pass by in a blink of an eye. As Gretchen Rubin famously said, “The days are long, but the years are short.” She has discovered how wonderful it is to have those fleeting moments in time documented in their family books and has made it her personal mission and passion to be able to tell their stories for her future grandkids.
