Better Late than Never!

Look at this little guy! Isn't he gorgeous? We clash on a daily basis, but whenever I see this picture, all I see is how happy and beautiful he is. He is heading off to grade 2 in a couple of weeks, so this page was a long time coming, but then again, it was in a frame on our wall for a while. That's my excuse and I'm sticking to it!

Supplies used (all CTMH): Notebook Level 1 and Level 2 paper packets, Annotations My Acrylix stamp set
Other: Creative Memories letter stickers

Needed a Thank You Card in a Rush!

We received an unexpected (and very yummy gift) from Jason's Uncle Bryon last night! So of course he deserves a handmade thank you card! I whipped this one up amid kids fighting and screaming, and I am pretty much out of adhesive, hence the staples, so it ended up very simple, but I kind of like how it turned out. Anyway, the sketch is from Mojo Monday 101, and the colors are from Color Me Monday on Jeannette Lynton's blog (Desert Sand, Olive, Indian Corn Blue, and Sunflower).

Supplies: Olive, Indian Corn Blue, and Desert Sand cardstock, Sunflower patterned paper from Animal Cookies Level 2 paper packet, Dream Wishes and Dainty Thoughts My Acrylix stamp sets, and Desert Sand Exclusive Ink
Other: twill from my stash

Sweet Feet

I just love these photos taken of my daughter over 4 years ago, but for some reason they didn't get scrapbooked until last night. Maybe it was the mish-mash of colors, but I finally found some paper to go with them, and I like how it turned out. I may still add some journaling around the top section. I found my inspiration and title from an ad for a book called "My Creative Companion 2".

Supplies used (all CTMH): Blue Ribbon Level 2 Paper Pack, Classmate Alphabet My Acrylix stamp set, Exclusive Inks stamp pad in Black, Exclusive Inks marker in Black.
Other: date stamp
