Hey friends!
Happy August. I can’t believe summer is almost over (although I’m definitely getting a little tired of the heat). But we’ve got a great month in store for you here in August with our brand new theme — ephemera.
This monthly content is a part of your paid Substack subscription (or Feminist Scrapbook School membership). It’s overflowing with inspiration and ideas to help you get your stories told with ephemera!
Here’s what you can look forward to this month:
Ephemera: This issue of Lens Magazine celebrates the art of capturing the fleeting moments and the bits of life that tell our stories. Whether it's ticket stubs from a concert, a handwritten note, or a pressed flower from a summer walk—each holds a unique story.
Daily Pages Challenge: Explore our Ephemera theme with different Daily Pages challenges, each designed to encourage you to incorporate those little bits of life onto your pages. This month, let's gather and document the bits of life that we pick up and the often overlooked details that add depth to our stories.
Book of Me - Ephemera Edition: Dive into our monthly story and style prompts, helping you to craft at least one page in your Book of Me that celebrates the beauty of ephemera. Embrace the tangible memories that paint the picture of your life.
Creative Team Inspirations: Get inspired by our talented creative team's contributions this month, creating projects that showcase their love and inventive uses of ephemera in scrapbooking.
Daily Pages Masterclass: Don’t miss our special Daily Pages Masterclass this Saturday afternoon! Join us to learn innovative techniques for weaving ephemera into your Daily Pages, elevating your scrapbooking with tangible pieces of your day-to-day life.
