There are 3 parts of family memory keeping that are part of the crafting/scrapbooking world. First is Living History, what is happening now, the trip to the zoo, last years family reunion etc. Second, memories from days gone by, our ancestors, where they came from and how their experiences helped to shape us into who we are today, and finally staying in touch with the family that we have now, but don't see as often. I would like to spend a little time each week on all 3 of these.

A Love Story part 2
I am entering this into the challenge at Getting Cricky and the challenge over at Cooking With Cricut the challenge was a Father's Day project that included a "cricut cut", the Getting Cricky challenge was the Simply Sunday Face It! This is the second page of the present that I made for my husband for Father's Day, I don't scrapbook so I decided to make him a sort of mini scrapbook/story of us. The Drive In is cut at 4 1/2" from my Nifty Fifties cartridge, the house is cut at 10 1/4" from the Handy Man cartridge and for the journaling I printed the outline and colored it in with my gel pens. The people are from the Playtime cartridge cut at 4" thier faces were done with Peachy Keen stamps that I colored with gel pens. I am posting each page of my mini-book as a separate post since keeping track of all of the cartridges and sizes in one post would run too long.
