I created this altered notebook to make a journal of the everyday things I am thankful for. Sometimes it is the little things in life that can truly make a person happy. A simple smile from my beautiful daughter, having a good meal, reading a good book, a kiss from my hubby... these are just some of the things I am thankful for each day. By writing down these things, I learn to appreciate what I have and be thankful for them rather than complaining about life.

I am Gracie Ann D. Tan from the Philippines, married to a loving husband, Mark and a mother to Marcie. I am a lover of arts & crafts and have been for almost 10 years now. I started scrapbooking in 1999. I also fell in love with other crafts like card making, cross-stitching, paper crafts and creating new things from recycled materials. I found my way back to scrapbooking again last July when I attended my first Scrap Jam here in the Philippines and I've been hooked again since then. My style varies depending on my mood or inspiration. I always see to it that every work of art I make is created with love. Learn more about me at my blog: http://dscrapyard.blogspot.com.
