Photo Focus: Thankful

Happy November! This month’s U.S. Thanksgiving holiday inspired this simple “Thankful” photo challenge. It’s pretty simple – choose a photo representing something you are thankful for. Journaling is optional. You can use a gratitude-related word art somewhere on your page to enhance the theme, and anything else you’d like, but please keep the focus on the photo and the meaning. There are so many things to be thankful for – things such as a car or home or the beauty around us, people or pets in our lives, time together, a fun vacation or experience, a new job, and the country one lives in… I could go on and on.  Here is a FREEBIE PACK and keep reading for inspiration from the team to get you started on your page.

Stacia shared her thankfulness for making it through and accident unharmed and the long-awaited return of her car afterwards. The little details in the page highlight the emotion she experienced.

Lastly my page is about the moment I’m probably most thankful for from 2023, and it’s exactly a year ago today. I used a Layer Works template put together by Tracy Thomson, who has an incredible skill for providing extensive journaling space when you want to tell a story to go with a photo.
