Story Scrapbook Challenge : What makes you smile

Right here, right now.  I want you to stop and think about the first thing that comes into your mind when I ask this question…

 

“What is making you smile?”

 

It can be today, it can be yesterday, it can be last week, it can be random.  The question may provoke a memory and crinkle the corners of your mouth into a smile at the very thought of it.  It might be a person, a smell, a sound.  Nothing can be too big and nothing can be too small, the smile belongs to us and our hearts and minds and everyone will be different.

 

So this month I want you to tell me right now, a story about what is making you smile.

 

The creative team have jumped on board with some terrific example pages and I dare you not to smile with pure joy when you read the stories.

 

I loved Patsy’s page here and how proud and happy making she must be celebrating their bowling champ.  I especially love the watery background, everything just flows so nicely here with that lovely centric design.
