I wanted to share something that’s been really on my heart lately… Scrapbooking! Lately I’ve been really missing scrapbooking. I used to do weekly pages documenting our weekly activities. I had my camera with me everywhere and tried to document everything that happened and all the cute quotes. This year I’ve been struggling to document our memories. It wasn’t until recently that the fire came back… but in a totally different way.

I still want to document our memories, but I also want to leave a legacy. I want my kids to look through the albums and see how much mama loved Jesus. My kids LOVE looking through our past albums, but there is one thing that’s really missing from those albums and that’s our heart for Jesus, our prayers and what we’re teaching our kids.

So, this week I started making little 3×4 and 4×6 cards with inspirational quotes and prayers and I’m going to start adding them into my album.

I’m going to start writing down the adorable prayers my 4 year old says at dinner.

I’m going to record the memory verses we’ve learned at Awanas and Vacation Bible School.

I want them to look through the albums and see how important our relationship with God is and how much He loves us and cares for us. I want them to see God’s amazing grace and mercy.

I also like to do Pocket Letter Pals and we thinking how awesome would it be to send little faith messages? Do you share your faith in your scrapbook albums? For those that participate in Pocket Letter Pals, have you thought about sending faith messages in your 3×4 pockets?

    I miss scrapbookING so much. This is such a great idea. As a “baby” Christian. I feel it is important to show my family, my daughter’s future family our values and that we love Jesus and all he has done for us, and God lights our way even in our darkest hours. Great post.

    I have been a scrapbooker for over a decade, and scrapbooking my faith has always been a part of that. I too want to make sure I’m leaving that legacy for my children and grandchildren or anyone else that might see my albums. I want my layouts to be an honest account of our hopes, dreams, joys, struggles and pain and to show how the Lord has been with us through it all. Scrapbooking layouts helps me remember the “good times,” but they also serve as “Ebenezer” stones marking where God has shown us mercy, grace, provision, and deliverance.

    I am new to Illustrated Faith, though I’ve always written in my Bible, and I find it is another way to leave that written legacy but also to enrich the time I spend with God in His Word.

    Your cards are beautiful Heather! Thank you for sharing them. :)

    I am an avid scrapbooker, have been for 20 yrs. Love the 3×4 and 4×6 card ideas. I have also been in scrap challenges where we made pages over the yrs or special books celebrating verses and the names of God, hymns, or verses using certain words. I also have a card ministry and have utilized my cards with stamped verses in my books. Thanks for the great idea
