Grade 8

Whenever I look at any old photo of my oldest it always gives me a sense of awe and panick. I can't believe how fast the time slips away from us. I remember thinking this is the begining of the end, the time when he would no longer want us or need us. I was wrong. Thank goodness. He is becoming such a wonderful young man. Yes there are days I might think about clobbering him and days that he tries my patience to the very limit but he is so kind hearted.

Grade 6

Another older photo I just got around to scrapping. The yearbook papers by SC are perfect for any school layouts. I remember how excited C was to be going into grade 6. The whole oldest in the school thing:) She really set a good example for the younger kids.

Not Every First Day Is A Happy One.

As you can see by the look on my sweet boys face he was not excited or happy to enter kindergarten. Looking back we both shed some tears that day. I just love this photo as it documents a time when his need for us was greater than his need to venture out into that scary new world. Now three years later he is so full of confidence and the knowledge that we will always be there for him just like we were that first day as he broke away from us and later joined us as we met him at the gate at the end of the day.

I Thought I'd Share

Something scrappy today.






Cherish this moment: featuring So Happy papers by Echo Park for Tina's Scrapbooking Creations.

Scrappy post ahead.

Here are a couple of layout's I made for Tina's on my scrap weekend away. Both of them feature the Reminisce line. The graduation layout is my daughter's grade six graduation photo. I used a Dr. Seuss Quote on it. The Canada paper is a few photos of my friends family from the Canada Day celebrations downtown. She was nice enough to let me use them because I didn't have any of my own to use and the 1st is two months away. I have more layouts that I made but I thought I would space them out a bit:)

Happy Tuesday:)

Quote of the day Layout.

This is the layout I made using the quote of the day from my last post. I was inspired by a Pinterest layout I saw but switched it up some. I'm just back from a weekend away at a rented cottage with some friends. It was beautiful. I had such a good time. We had so much yummy food made from pins we liked on Pinterest and many beautiful layouts and cards were made by all. Here's a look at the amazing view we had.

Scrappy

It's been awhile since I've posted something scrappy. I made this Christmas mini for Tina. It's the perfect time to get all those great photos from the holidays scrapped. I used the Christmas Wishes from Bella Blvd.















This next page is from the same paper pack. A spin on using papers for something they may not have been designed for.



This last page is from the La Banquise line from Harmonie.



That's all I've got so far:)
Happy Family Day!
