Guest Blogger and a Giveaway!!

Hi Everyone! I’m Karen Hunter and I’ve been an instructor at MCC for a little over a year now. I love teaching and participating in such a fun and creative online community. You can check out all of my classes here and I’d be honored if you visited my blog, KarenScraps.

One of my first classes at MCC was Scrapbooking Your Faith and I am so excited to introduce a second installment of that class, Scrapbooking Your Faith 2, which begins on April 5th. In this class, our focus is on incorporating our faith and family values into our scrapbook layouts – whether those layouts are a part of our everyday albums or specifically faithbooking albums. Each week focuses on a different faith word and you’ll receive tons of inspiration through journaling prompts, page focus ideas, quotes, title suggestions, scripture, and even printables for your layouts. You’ll also have access to a set of page sketches made just for this class and each week I’ll walk you through my sample layout(s) and offer scrapbooking tips and techniques along the way to help you create great pages with meaningful journaling and faith elements.

I wanted to share this layout inspired by the materials in class.  I created it using a sketch, journaling prompt, and printable sentiment from class materials. The grid pattern is simple and can be recreated in endless ways. You can keep it simple like I did or really step it up with added techniques and embellishments. You’ll find my scrapbooking style is relatively simple – I get more pages done that way! I also try to keep the emphasis on my photos and journaling.

Scrapbooking Your Faith 2 is packed full of weekly prompts and ideas that offer many approaches to incorporating your faith and values into your scrapbook pages. You’ll be able to return to the handouts again and again for continued inspiration long after class is over! I hope you’ll join me in this inspirational class.
