Precious Memories

Precious mem'ries, unseen angels
Sent from somewhere to my soul
How they linger, ever near me
As the sacred past unfold.

Precious mem'ries, how they linger
How they ever flood my soul
In the stillness of the midnight
Precious, sacred scenes unfold.

As I travel on life's pathway
I know not what the years may hold
And as I ponder, hope grows fonder
Precious mem'ries floods my soul.

Precious mem'ries how they linger
How they ever flood my soul
In the stillness of the midnight
Precious, sacred scenes unfold...

Many of you know that I my favorite pastime is digi-scrapping, and I especially love doing heritage pages. I have completed several family photo books for our Kiper and Phelps family. It is my attempt to share with my children and grandchildren their heritage; a glimpse into

the lives of the families, they never really got to know. They do not have the privilege of sitting around the kitchen table on a Sunday afternoon surrounded by grandparents, aunts, uncles, cousins, and friends as I did at my Grandma Stewart's house. And, they don't really remember all the wonderful days we shared with their numerous Mudd relatives at Mamaw and Papaw Nette's

house when they were small. It is my belief that these memories are great treasures, and it is my duty to get as much recorded for them as possible while I can. When I am gone, so too are the

Precious Memories.

So in that spirit, I scrap, and once again, I am working on some Stewart and Mudd heritage pages.

It takes many hours to work on these massive scrapbooks, so it is, it seems, a never ending process.

Especially as I strive to keep up with my family's here-and-now, everyday photos but digi-scrapping is how I maintain my sanity as I spend hours and hours with only me, myself and I as a stay-at-home Granny. Some days, I can roll out numerous scrapbook pages; some days I am lucky to get one finished. Then there are days and weeks, that I forget about it all together. But that is the beatuty

of digi-scrapping for as long as my computer keeps working all it takes for me to get started is to sit down with my photo-editing software of choice, and begin.

Thank you for stopping by today and visiting with me here in the holler.

I hope you come back again soon for I have plans to share many new scrapbook pages with you.

I also have a couple of Facebook Pages where I share digi-scrapping, and much more!

RAWR

Kimberly Stewart has been busy once again and today she has released the cutest dinosaurs with the RAWR Kit . They are just waiting to adorn your scrapbook pages! I used the cuties with the TV Theme Song Lyrics from the PBS show Dragon Tales for my journaling on this page with one of my Grandsons swirling and dancing in his own little world as he plays in the warm spring sunshine. I also used it to make a little Christmas gift album for my Great Nephew Here is the link once again for this cute kit, Kimberly Stewart's RAWR kit and remember all All New Releases are 25% off - Sunday and Monday Only And in reply to the Anonymous Comment from previous post, yes, I am aware that the music on my site uses the bandwidth of site visitors...some approve, some do not.

I hope each of you come to visit me o...

In Memoriam Collection

Anyone who has lost a loved one knows how much they cherish them and want to preserve their memory. Putting together a Memory Album is one way of remembering them, now and for future generations. Rina and Kimberly have come together in bringing you the "In Memoriam" collection that exemplifies gentleness in strength. Inside this large collection you will find a myriad of embellishments and papers that are suitable for both softly feminine and more rugged masculine pages. It is delicate and sensitive, yet strong and thoughtful. The colors are peaceful, yet with an intensity that gives them strength. You will be able to choose from a number of color combinations: from crisp silvery white and lavender, to the soft glow of gold leaf and sky blue, from warm caramel and taupe to shades found in nature, and finally to accent colors of scarlet red, navy blue and dark purple. Often times our emotions are still very raw from our loss and we may find it difficult to draw on our own c...
