There’s something special about coming together, cutting, pasting, and sharing stories with friends.

The Stef Ripple nonprofit organization will graciously donate the supplies needed for this session. However, to make your Vision Board even more personal, we invite you to bring copies of photos that hold special meaning—pictures of loved ones, places that bring you peace, or special mementos that have filled your life with joy.
