The photos from our snowy Switzerland adventures are some of my favorites, and I'm excited to *finally* share the finished photo book! I selected a red fabric cover to match the Swiss flag (of course) and opted for a clean foil stamp with the date.
Read MoreSpending time editing photos and designing a book filled with our European adventures was undoubtedly a summertime highlight. While I'm delighted to share the completed project, I'm a bit sad that these photos won't be a part of my morning work routine. Perhaps I'll just flip through our book with a cup of coffee every morning. :)

If you're new around these parts, welcome! Let me give you the Spark Notes: I created a list of the adventures I wanted to edit and archive as a roadmap for catching up on our family memory keeping.
