Great to hear that you are beginning it! I think that this is a great way to honor your dad's life :)You are making me think of the old photo albums of my grandfather. There are some really great pictures of him as a young man before he was evacuated from the west coast with the rest of the Japanese Canadians. Funny, in a way I am visiting my family's "hometown" here in Vancouver. Wishing you lots of fun with this new venture into scrapbooking! Bye for now :)<br />RynRyn Tanakahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10082989779347280014noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6708807491363992142.post-4863346595819164702012-11-23T21:26:45.815+00:002012-11-23T21:26:45.815+00:00I can't wait to see the next stage Shoshi.

The vid...Wowee Shoshi, this is going to be superb!! The videos are wonderful aren't they?! All those pockets and tag spaces! Fab! I can't believe we've both been looking/watching the same You tube guru's, lol. <br />I have been looking at doing a paper bag journal myself, but because I don't buy bags and only have the usual ones from shops over here they don't have the flaps and gussets the american style ones do, so I'm not sure still how I can use mine. I've also got lots of 'pages' ready to be made into a book but I haven't decided how to do that yet either (jennibellie's fault for that one), and am amassing quite a stockpile of gesso'd and half painted items of old paper, booklets, envelopes. I think I'm turning into a hoarder, lol.
