Chime In!

So, when I was a kid, my grandparents traveled the country full time in an RV. They would send me postards from where they were visiting, and my Mom would help me to poke red pushpins into the map from whereever the postcard came from. It was so fun to watch the map fill up with red dots. So, lets have some fun and build a map. Leave a comment, and let us know where in the world you are...and let's see how many places we can name. Sounds fun, huh?!

Featured Layout of the Week

Isn't this the coolest layout?! I love the photo- (could someone please tell me how to get that lighter look without overexposing?!), but I also love the way she framed the photo. And the journaling is just so cool, I am going it so that you can read it:

I don't wanna be a flame
I wanna be a raging fire.
Words from my favorite song by Ginny Owens.
Recently, I have become aware of just how much I want this,
No. . .I need this to be the way that I live. Everyday.
I don’t want to just go through the motions.
Be mediocre. Take things for granted.
No.
I want to live life passionately.
Give my self completely to all that I do.
I wanna be a raging fire.

Awesome, right?!! What a blessing this layout was to me!! Congrats, Paula, on being this week's Featured Layout of the Week!!

Last week's Chime In had to do with favorite verses. Your page prompt for the week follows that train of thought...Put together a page for your album that includes your favorite verse on it somewhere. It is amazing how well the Scriptures compliment your jouraling, or add to the point you are trying to make with your page. Be sure to share with us what you have done!!
