Story Scrapbook Challenge: Random

So all day every day we are creating memories.  Some huge and exciting, some just pass us by.  But none should be ignored, as they are the make up of our lives.  I want you to delve into your photo file, phone camera gallery, big girl/boy camera memory, FB or IG postings, whatever, and find a random photo and tell that story.  And of course if no photo and just the story, that’s fine too, the story is all important in my view.

I don’t know about you but I’m using my phone camera more and more now, and I can scroll through the (cough cough) many many photos I have saved there.  Why did I take them?  Was it a funny expression on a child’s face, was it your pet sleeping on the couch, was it a selfie with you and your partner, was it a vista out a car window, was it a recipe in a magazine at a doctor’s office?  Whatever it was it’s one of your random memories and I think it would be fun to pick just a random moment in time and scrap it.

I am so excited about this challenge because lately this is what I’m doing, scrapping all the random memories and it’s been a blast.  I absolutely cannot wait to see what this challenge brings.  I want to see your random memories.

 

The creative team have jumped on board with some terrific example pages:

 

Kathy has delved into her phone and found this cute cute photograph of a dog Bruno that stole her heart.  And I love this page, what do you do if you run out of room for a title, you use a clear alpha.

And lastly for my page, who would have thought a page about broccoli would have made it into my scrapbooking, but indeed it did.  It brought back a fun memory when I went delving through my pics, a story worthy of telling.
