Studio Calico's Pinwheel Challenge

The latest kit from Studio Calico is all about pinwheels....so, they are challenged all of us to create a layout including some homemade pinwheels. Here is my layout:



I remember making these pinwheels as a child and using straws as the handle....so I had to be sure to do the same on the layout!

Reading is Bad

My son Noah is just finishing up 1st grade. He can now read anything he wants. This morning, he decided to have a granola bar for breakfast. Fine. I always have granola bars in the cupboard and I always buy the same brand/kind. This is the box. He comes in and says "I don't eat 'low fat' granola bars." He is then told that yes, he actually does. This is what he has always eaten. "No" he says, "I always read the labels. I don't need low fat." He is correct, my skinny little stick figure of a 40lb 7 year old boy. You do NOT need low fat. Guess I will now have to switch brands to one that doesn't tout to be so healthy! Like I said, Reading is Bad!

Treasure Life's Little Moments

I just adore this picture of Sarah and I. I am sure you remember it from my Mother's Day posting. The MME Bloom & Grow papers worked beautifully with it. I mounted everything on a white scalloped sheet but this scan doesn't really pick that up. Super simple layout and I was able to use up some old Prima accents and one of my old stamp sets.
