Day 2

One a Day

Clearly, I have not been so good at keeping up with my blog posts. So, I am setting up blogger to post a layout every day this week...no words just pages. Almost all were made with the October Trio kit from 3 Scrappy Boys. What an amazing kit! Filled with Pink Paislee, Glitz, and Studio Calico.

Enjoy the pages as I try to find some sort of balance with our fall calendar!!

School Papers

I am a sucker for School Themed scrapbook papers --- yet outside of the first day of school and class pictures, I rarely use them. This year, I only purchased school lines that I knew could suit multiple purposes. Basic Grey's Oxford line is gorgeous and quite versatile. I used it to scrap the first of many vacation pictures.

We spent one of our morning in Georgia at Fort Pulaski. I wasn't too sure the kids would enjoy it as the day prior they had shown little to NO interest in touring Savannah. However, I was pleasantly surprised and the kids had a fabulous time learning all about the history of the fort and of course they loved seeing the canons up close and personal. Here is a shot of my youngest posing as a Confederate soldier. I think if she had been on the front lines, the war may have turned out differently...seriously, with those eyes, who would have dared shoot?



Supplies: Basic Grey Oxford papers and chipboard. BG micro alpha; MME button; Jenni Bowlin butterfly; Maya Road naked chipboard frame.

Chemist

H, He, Li, Be, B, C, N, O, F, Ne..... I can still recite the beginning elements of the periodic table. One of my favorite subjects through high school and college was Chemistry. In fact, I began college with the intention of becoming a bio-chemist. Instead I ended up majoring in mathematics and going into finance. My love for chemistry however, didn't waver. Now, I have a seven year old who is obsessed with it as well. She takes bottles and throws things together just to see how they mix and react. I think she will either become a scientist or a chef --- almost one in the same, right?! :)



Supplies: Jillibean Soup papers, die cut tags, and stickers. Basic Grey chipboard accent and micro alpha. MME tickets.
