Scrapbook Page: Friends are the Sunshine of Life

Happy Monday, All! Well, my spring break is officially over and I head back to work today. We got lots and lots of rain last week, so I didn't get as much done as I had originally planned - oh well!

Today I'm going to share with you a scrapbook page that I created to commemorate the retirement of my dear friend, Linda H., a few years ago. I had the honor and privilege of working with her for many, many years, and she has become just like family to Mike and I. Here is the layout:


The color scheme that I used for this layout mirrors the fun colors shown in the pretty jacket that Linda is wearing. I created a pocket on the layout to hold the sweet letter that Linda wrote to Mike and I. On the front of the pocket is the journaling, which tells how we became friends. (You can click on the photo to read the journaling, if you'd like.)


Thanks for looking!! Happy Scrappin'!!

    1. Thanks, Stacie! Yes, Linda is a hoot to be around - she has FABULOUS stories from her days of being an elementary teacher and then a principal. I have been encouraging her for years to write a book about all of her "adventures" in education! :)
