Recent Scrapbook Pages

These are the pages I did in Olympia last month. I ended up forgetting ALL my stuff, so I had to re-print my pictures (thank you Wal-Mart!) and buy some paper and embellishments just to get me through (I also borrowed a lot of stuff from Christina and Tina! Thank you!) All things considered, I am really happy with they way these turned out!

The snowflakes came from a whole sheet of this cut-out-fun-stuff. I just cut it to the size I wanted and laid it over the green paper. I love how this looks!

Kid's Art

Joel and Maren made these amazing paintings last week with Carolyn and I thought they were fit to be hung on the wall! The top one is Joel's "Rocks" and the bottom one is an abstract by Maren. :) I guess they did these with pastels and then a watercolor wash. I don't totally understand the art lingo, but I love the way they turned out!

Blocks!

A good friend of mine just adopted a little girl from Ethiopia and I made these blocks as a gift for her. I saw the idea on the Martha Stewart show (I just happened to be flipping channels in the middle of the day - something I hadn't done in about a year!) and I thought "I can do that!" so I did!

And this is the card I made for her shower. We were asked to bring a prayer that they were going to add to a book...I just had to make it pretty! :)
