The Next Big Thing in Scrapbooking...

my six year old daughter!! hehe!! She sat down today with her box of scrapping goodies and she made three layouts all by herself! I usually help her out here and there at least a little but not this time. And she is so proud of herself and her work. She asked me if I wanted to take a picture of them and put them on the internet and I said, "Of course!!" So here's her favorite page from today...the pictures are of her and her BFF/cousin, Whitney when they were little.

Awww...ain't it cute??? I was very proud of her!! Yay, Sydney!! {{clapping!!}} I'm sure I'll post some more but I wanted to stretch it out over a couple days for her. Thanks for letting me be the proud mama...hehe!!

Oh my...I have been working with some really gorgeous paper from American Crafts for the AC Bailey design team! They are from the Amplified collection...so rich and gorgeous!! And cool names, too, like "British Invasion," "The Twist," and "Rock Opera." But...I can't reveal any of those just yet...next week. But I do have a layout that I did just for the fun of it, not as part of my DT requirements that I can share. It's super simple but I liked the way it turned out. I did a little sketch, (yep...can you believe it?? I sketched!!), inspired by a magazine ad that I saw and then used it for this layout. I actually intended on using the white space for my journaling but I ended up liking it just the way it was for some reason. Anyway, here it is:

I've been having a little trouble figuring out the best adhesive for pipe cleaners. I used glue dots but those crazy little things just don't want to stay on very well. grr. Little frustrating. If anyone has any suggestions, I'd love to hear them!! Well, that's all for today...thanks so much for stopping by!!!
