This is so fun and interesting, Kelly! I have lots of Sassafrass Lass papers that I've never used, and now you've got me thinking they would be so fun on this layout! :)
So much research and work went into this! Awesome keepsake! Super fun with all the pull outs of info. Love the toys and technology and that photo is so darling!!
This LO is for this months Sassy Blinging Babes (SBB) January Book Of Me (BOM) Challenge!
I've always wanted to do this particular type of LO, but just as suspected I also figured it would take some time. Talk about information overload. One topic alone, had me pages from where I started!
Anyways, on that note, for all the extra information, I went ahead and created an envelope (on the back) for all the extra printed copies & topics! (World Events, Toys & Games, Pop Culture, etc.)
Overall & in the end, this project was very educational (& fun!)
