Hey there!
Welcome to Shawn Bear Scraps! I’ve been digital scrapbooking for 14 years. This is my little corner of the internet to showcase my digital scrapbooking layouts, designs from creative teams I am on, and the latest digital scrapbooking supplies I am fangirling over! I am a 39 year old wife and mom. I live in Georgia, here in the states. I am a Jesus believing, panda loving, digi scrapping, photo taking, memory making, true crime watching, historical fiction reading, nap taking, hike going, football yelling, introverted nerd.

ThrowBack Thursday | Volume 5

 


Today we are going to look back at two older but still wonderful layouts by yours truly. Back to pre-covid living and memory making. But not too far back. Just to 2019. But you know what is crazy? Covid really skewed up timing. 2019 was 4 years ago! Anyway, here you go: 



This was one of our 1st family vacations. It was the 1st one that Daniel went on with us. We drove down to the tip of Florida basically and swam our days away at the beach. This was Grams, PawPaw, the Eboys and Isaiah. Look how little they are! They are now 2 teenagers in highschool, one in middle school, and the youngest can keep up with all of them! 

Keeping Cool by Digital Scrapbook Ingredients is packed with fun and colorful illustrations and perfect for documenting everything from days by the pool to beach fun to backyard water play! 
This kit contains: 26 papers, patterned and solid (12x12 inch), 87 elements, including: 2 air beds, 1 bottle cap, 2 bows, 1 group of bubbles, 1 bucket, 3 buttons, 1 fish, 3 flairs, 1 pair of flip flops, 1 pair of flippers, 12 flowers, 4 foliage, 1 frame, 1 pair of goggles, 3 labels, 1 lemon slice, 1 paint, 1 pool, 3 pool floats, 3 popsicles, 3 ribbons, 1 scatter, 1 shell, 1 snorkle, 1 snorkling mask, 1 spade, 1 splash, 1 starfish, 1 sun, 1 sunscreen, 1 thermometer, 8 titles (splash, water, cool, summer, swim, slide, wet, pool), 2 washi, 1 water splash, 1 water gun, 1 piece of watermelon 15 word art (make a splash, wet and wild, beat the heat, slip and slide, keeping cool, cool treats, fun in the sun, pool time, hello sunshine, summer lovin’, water play, summer splash, dive in, summer days are here again, life is better by the pool), 2 alphas (uppercase, numbers and a few symbols)





For my 2nd throwback layout from 2019, we are looking at the kiddo at the library working on a big presentation project he had. It was difficult for me to not jump in and take over for him. But instead, I took him where he needed to be, pointed him in the right direction, and let him do his thing. And of course....preserving those memories along the way! I really need to start putting dates on these layouts! Remember that folks. (and La'Shawn)!
