Please let me hear from you!

This blog is for sharing a love of paper crafting. I love paper crafting -
and Stampin' Up! products in particular -
so much so, that I became an independent Stampin' Up!®™ demonstrator earlier this year!
Full disclosure: I get a small commission on purchases made using Stampin' Up! links from this website - but this in no way affects your price. It just serves to help support my blogs. Thank you in advance for that support!

As of January 21, 2026, most of my Stampin' Up! makes are moving to
https://cheringloveofpaper.blogspot.com/, with makes from other materials here.
Enjoy browsing my blogs, and I'd love to hear from you.
It is what helps make the time I put into these blogs feel worthwhile, and always brightens my day.

Scrapbooking Challenges Part 2 - No Pictures

Another problem you can run into is having something you want to scrapbook about, but you don't have pictures of it!  That was the case here for a baby that was born years ago, premature, and only lived seven days.  In this case, I wrote a little poem about it and used that for the focal and journaling on the page.  I accented it with butterflies because that speaks to me of life's transitions (among other things).  That with pretty papers and borders made a nice page for my heritage scrapbook.

In another instance, I wanted to scrapbook about a special "Back to School" dance - but hadn't had my camera with me so had no pictures.  In this case, I found a picture of the person who had been in charge of planning for the dance and then accented with a variety of elements that related to the theme of the dance.  Here's a picture of that page:
