Are you up for a monthly memory-keeping challenge?

Sign up for my newsletter Moment Makers Club and every month, you will receive a themed prompt list and weekly inspiration + tried-and-crafted tips from yours truly to help you get those creative juices flowing and give you the tools you need to make intentional memory-keeping a part of your routine.

Coming in a little late on insta this month but I'

Coming in a little late on insta this month but I'm finally here to reveal the prompts for November's #MomentMakerChallenge theme! This month, we're going to dive into CONVERSATIONS 💬

Now more than ever, it's important to stay in touch and keep having conversations with your family, friends, and yourself. As we get used to the concept of isolation and "staying away" from people, it becomes harder and harder to nurture relationships and connections.

A conversation is essentially an exchange of ideas and thoughts but what's more important to note is that it is...

💖 a way to nurture friendships and relationships,
⭐️ a vehicle for understanding people,
🌱 a chance to forge deeper connections with someone or with yourself

The intention for this theme is to get to know yourself more through the conversations that you have with the people around your or with yourself. The prompts will focus on getting you to examine the ideas, thoughts, assumptions, and opinions that you share with yourself and with other people 🤗

〰️

If you want to join this month’s challenge, simply use the prompts in your memorykeeping and use the hashtags #MomentMakerChallenge and #IntentionalMemorykeepingChallenge when you upload it here on Instagram ✨

If you are a Patreon member, you’ll get access to exclusive content and you can win prizes for completing the challenge! 🤗

Sharing my final layout for the HOME #MomentMakerC

Sharing my final layout for the HOME #MomentMakerChallenge ✨ I used Prompt 3 — Capture the different areas of your home 🏠

For this prompt, I wanted to be very intentional about including myself in the photos. Not because I like taking photos of myself (I'm actually very self conscious about this) but rather, I believe it's important to be present in your own archive of memories. It's nice to have a record of yourself throughout the years and remember, you don't need to share these photos with anyone but yourself if you don't want to 🙂

Hello again! 😊 I took an unexpected break last

Hello again! 😊 I took an unexpected break last week because I was feeling the stress and ~burnout~ creeping in on me. I spent the past week doing what I do when I feel stressed and overwhelmed — clean and organize my home 🏠 I'm proud of myself for actually scaling back when my body needed me to; about time I actually listened 😅

I did a bunch of organizing projects around the house and some tiny, tiny upgrades (until I ran out of spray paint). Oh, and I adopted a new schefflera (I had to search how to pronounce it lol) plant baby 🌱

I'm going to resume the #MomentMakerChallenge this week so stay tuned for that! You can also subscribe to my newsletter to receive weekly memory-keeping tips + inspo (link in bio) ✨

Thank you to those who have been participating in the challenge, I will make sure to share all your beautiful works this week! ❤️

Sharing my #MomentMakerChallenge spread for Prompt

Sharing my #MomentMakerChallenge spread for Prompt 9 - Home Rules To Live By 📜

I took inspo from Harry Potter! Remember the educational decrees by Prof. Umbridge? I loved the look of it and I adapted it a bit to work with the kraft packaging that I recycled from a package I received.

I filmed somewhat ~relaxing~ #JournalWithMe video for this spread -- link in bio! (scroll down a bit) ❤️

This cutie patootie deserves a close-up post 🐶

This cutie patootie deserves a close-up post 🐶 Aaaand she's 10 human years old today! 🎉 She's the sweetest lil' pupper in the world (she made me type this) and I can't imagine working from home full-time as a small business owner without her snoozing by my foot 🤗

The keywords I want to highlight here are DOCUMENT

The keywords I want to highlight here are DOCUMENTING YOUR STORIES, FUN and PURPOSEFUL (ok, I know that was a lot of words lol). Simply put, I want you to discover a memory-keeping method that gets you excited and at the same time, adds a layer of meaning and intention into your daily life.⁠⠀
⁠⠀
Whether you prefer writing ✍🏼 or taking photos 📸 or creative journaling 🎨, the mission is to TELL YOUR STORY.⁠⠀
⁠⠀
Imagine if you had a way of immortalizing the fleeting moments of life. Imagine telling your everyday story in a way that is hand-made and close to your heart.⁠⠀
What would it feel like if your could relive your memories by flipping through the pages of a tangible book, journal or album?⁠⠀
⁠⠀
Instead of thumbing through your phone.⁠⠀
⁠⠀
Instead of scrolling through your old social media posts.⁠⠀
⁠⠀
Instead of never actually looking back, or worse, forgetting the moments that were.⁠⠀
⁠⠀
Refreshing? Nostalgic? Sentimental?⁠⠀
⁠⠀
I’d say it feels pretty damn good.⁠⠀
⁠⠀
And that’s exactly what intentional memory-keeping can do you for you.⁠⠀
⁠⠀

Meet the family! 👩‍❤️‍👨🐶 Second spread for the #MomentMakerChallenge! I used Prompt 5 — introduce the residents of your home 🏠

I leaned into the "introduction" aspect of the prompt and added in some fun (but super simple) nametags for each resident of my home.

🔥 HOT TIP: Add a lil' magazine cut-out effect on your photos by cutting around the subject of you photos! Instead of rounding each corner, stick with the pointy edges to maintain the scrapbook-y vibe.
