Heartfelt Thanks—Scrappin’ Your Faith

I had a scrapbook party for a friend today and this is the page we did.  I’ve recently been inspired to really share my faith and values in my scrap booking so that my kids and some day, grand kids will be reminded of how much I loved the Lord.

This uses one of my favorite sets that is going to retire—---

Heartfelt Thanks
