challenge

I signed up for a challenge to make 50 scrapbook layouts without buying any new supplies. This has really challenged me, even in the first 10 pages, to rethink the supplies I have and how to use them. It has been so fun so far. Thanks to the girls at We Scrap Better. Here are some more new layouts.

My husband Kelly with Rebekah just before Christmas 2007. She was only about 2 months old

Who put this flower on my head?

A day last spring when it snow and then became quite warm. Warm enough to build a sand, I mean snow, castle in our front yard.

Four New Layouts

This is my baby girl and my grandma. I tried a new technique on the photo edges.

This is my son standing on a gravestone that says “mother.” It was accidental but it spoke to me somehow afterwards.

Please pray for my friend.

Timothy started 1st grade this year. The pencil cup has new things he will get to do. spelling tests, taking books home from the library, book reports.
