Layout a Day for the month of October has come and gone… Even though I didn’t get as many pages completed as I hoped I would, I’m still super happy with the few I did complete! Any pages done during LOAD is more than I started the month with : )
Our ScrapHappy sisters Lynnette and Leslie, with the help of Dani and her daily videos, led the month with prompts and amazing inspiration to create pages. The theme was “In Vogue” and the prompts took us through decades, spanning almost 100 years of amazing history. One of the prompts was “1930’s: Money is Tight” and it made me realize I hadn’t documented the chores and “work pay” we implemented this summer for our girls.
Even though we encourage our girls to save a third to half of their pay in their piggy banks, we’ve noticed one of our daughter’s is a natural saver, the other an absolute spender! It’s fun to document these types of characteristics – I definitely wonder how much they’ll change over the years! Needless to say, it was great inspiration and I love the way this turned out!
How do you document these types of life lessons? If you’ve created a layout, I’d love to see it, so share links in the comments!
As always, thanks for stopping by. Have a joyful, creative, blessing filled day!
Live creatively!
xoxo,

Love it! My kids are similar, though we haven’t got into money yet. One will eat all their goodies, while the other savours them and likes to keep them away to have SLOWLY one at a time 😉
