MAKING SOME HISTORY TODAY!!!

If you stumbled onto this, and you feel lost, go to the Unity Blog to start from the beginning of the World Inspirational Blog Hop! You should be arriving here from Katie's blog (Paper Makeup Stamps).


The theme of the blog hop is INSPIRATION. I remember feeling a little overwhelmed leaving Mom and Dad's nest to start college. So, I thought what teenager wouldn't appreciate a little book to remind them of home, and little calming inspirations. Unity is PERFECT at this! Enjoy!


The mini-book is closed, reminding you that every moment is precious. As you slide off the band, you read Endings & Beginnings, Cherish Every Moment.


Unfolding the book, you see topics on mini-bags. Inside each bag is a card ready to hold a photo, and with a journalling block on the back for those sweet memories! Imagine tucking a little letter into that bag, too. A piece of you to hold to their heart when they are troubled, happy or lonely.

Finally, the whole booklet is opened to reveal three quotes that match each mini-bag topic. I hope you enjoyed viewing this project. My quote for you is:

"So long as we are loved by others I should say that we are almost indispensable; and no man is useless while he has a friend." ~Robert Louis Stevenson

Next, your travels take you to beautiful Jeanne's terrific blog!

Peace be the journey - cool runnings.

Ta for now, ~ky
