Creating Precious Memories through Scrapbooking

I am constantly on the lookout for stories to share about stillbirth, miscarriage and pregnancy loss. Through my google reader newsfeed, I came across a post on a freebie site for a giveaway of a memory book for pregnancy loss and a beaded baby name memory bracelet. Of course, having lost Zackery, I just had to enter the contest as I love getting anything I can in memory of Zackery. I am letting you know of the contest as well.

Friday night, I took the plunge and decided to join a scrapbooking group so I could / would finally get around to scrapbooking again. I never know what I am going to scrap at these groups since Zackery is usually such a sensitive subject to most but once I told everyone there (it was a small group of only 6 of us) they were most receptive towards my scrapbooking him. They even went as far as asking me questions about him. I am so greatful that I went and while I didn't get a whole lot done, I did get inspired and it has spurred my love of scrapbooking again. Saturday night, I managed to almost finished 3 layouts. Just have to figure out the finishing touches.

While I didn't manage to work on any layouts tonight, I did organize my paper and now I should be able to find things more easily.

Now, on to find some more ideas for layouts!

And please, please, please, leave me some comments!! Is there anything you would like to know about scrapbooking a loss? Let me know and I will help you out!
