The journaling in the layout above reads:
Who said everyone should look at the camera in order to capture a moment in time and immortalize a memory.
I stand by these words.
As you might have notice, no one in the picture is looking at the camera, yet I kept this pictures because it captures a true, uneditted, unstaged moment – and I love it! The photo is genuine and authentic and thus precious to me.
Give it a chance. try to capture a true moment in time and choose the best point of view to depict that moment.

Side Notes
You might have noticed a slight downsizing on my part. I haven’t been updating the blog as often as I used to and that stems from a couple reasons.
First, I have just come back from a two-week vacation back home after more than a year of absence and remoteness. It has been quite an emotional as well as an awakening and changing experience. I just could not take time from my visit and spend it online. I hope you understand.
Second, I have embarked on a challenging journey. It has nothing to do with paper crafts – or any other crafts for that matter. It has everything to do with my peace of mind and personal development. At this early stage, I find it difficult to share (and no. It isn’t pregnancy) but I hope I’ll gather the courage sooner or later.
For these reasons I have decreased the amount of posts I put up each week, though I will keep on updating and putting up tutorials, journaling prompts and general ideas, as well as share crafty projects with you and in time I hope I will be strong enough to share more about my current challenge in life.
So please bare with me and stay put. You are very welcome to comment and I will join any discussion you start. You may also feel free to contact me and e-mail me in person. I will do my very best to get back to you as soon as possible.
I love you!
…and I need you to stay with me, are you in?

I’m in! Love your work. It was photography and scrapbooking that got me through the last year, helping me to appreciate my babies and see past the enormous difficulty of it all.

Thank you, Debbie. Sometimes activities that take time actually buy you time, because of the positive energy they inject. Thanks for the reminder 🙂
