ten on tuesday

1. It really is Tuesday. I cheated last night and did ten on Monday!

2. Caleb had a much better day at preschool. Thank you for all your prayers and sweet words.

3. The boys played hockey on the front driveway tonight with the neighbourhood kids (and their dad).

4. No, we don't have any snow yet. :)

5. Matthew had a substitute teacher today. Her name is Mrs. R. because her real name is too hard to say.

6. Matthew's class went to the gym for an assembly... or maybe a liturgy. We're not too sure. There was a song that he's heard at Church before... Hmmm. Maybe it was a singing practice for the liturgy that takes place on Friday! (I'm like a detective)

7. It's picture day this Friday at my school and I don't know what to wear.

8. I scrapbooked! Yay!

9. I'd still like to do a challenge Katy (and everyone else). Let me know what you'd like to do.

10. I'd better get to bed while it's still Tuesday. I've been staying up way too late for last little while.

Goodnight!

just arrived

I know I'm a little late to the party, but these just arrived today! I'm so excited! I might have to stay up all night. :)

scrapbooking challenge - jewelry inspiration

Here is my layout for the scrapbooking challenge. I already showed you my inspiration piece. I was inspired by the necklace in the middle. I used brown, green, pink, reddish, and turquoise papers and arranged them in a way that was inspired by the necklace.
It's not too late to join. Just post a link to your layout whenever you get a chance to finish it (even if it's two years from now-hee hee)

sneak peek

Here's a sneek peek at my inspiration piece for the scrapbooking challenge!Can you believe she makes this jewelry out of tupperware?! It's true!

I'm going to try to post my layout by Sunday. I can't wait to see what you all come up with!

Check out Jenny's blog to see more inspiration pieces.

scrapbook inspiration challenge!

Are you looking for a challenge? Are you looking for some inspiration? Would you like to scrapbook? Me too!

** Jewelry inspiration challenge*
1. Find some pretty jewelry. Check out flickr or etsy or your own jewelry box!
2. Get inspired and scrapbook! Maybe you're inspired by the colours, or the shapes, or the beads, or the sparkles. Maybe you'd like to do a layout about your favourite earrings!
3. Post your layout on your blog or twopeas or wherever you like to post your layouts and then come back here and tell us where we can see it.
4. Let's try to have it done by next Sunday, April 20th, but feel free to post it earlier or later.

Here's an example. I saw this necklace on etsy. I made a layout with brown and aqua because the beads were brown and aqua. And I kind of put the circles in the shape of a necklace. And if you need some inspiration, here are some of my favourites from flickr. Feel free to use one of these as your inspiration piece, or use something else.

1. Tutti Frutti, 2. Key Lime Margarita ... Serpentine and Fossil beaded Necklace, 3. Funky Vintage Multicolored Button Necklace, 4. Autumn Inspired Funky Chunky Necklace, 5. Camden Town Necklace, 6. Botão (anel), 7. This is the bracelet I have in the book 'Felt Underground'., 8. Tupperware Neckpiece, 9. olive jade, 10. Scrabble Tile Jewelry 134, 11. Handmade Jewelry, 12. Enhance Your Beauty...

Are you in? I'm going to do another one too! The first one was too much fun :) Feel free to jump in and join, even if you're a lurker or if you don't really comment often.

monday night challenge

If anyone is up for a scrapbooking challenge...Faye and I were scrapbooking last night and we created a challenge.

Find a scrapbooking magazine (you know you have one!) and open it up randomly to any page. You must scraplift a layout (or an ad) from that page. And finish it by Thursday morning, if you can.

Ready, set, go!

We're already done :)

I scrapbooked!

A layout about Matthew's first day of preschool (last year). It's a scraplift of a Jamie Waters layout and I needed to stamp on it somewhere. I was so proud that I used two stamps!

Thanks Jenny for the fun challenge! I can't wait to see your layout(s)!
