OK elementary School house book!!!!!!


This little album is only about 5 in tall and 4 in wide in the shape of a school house.........I made this album as a present and a thank you gift for a teacher who allowed me to observe in her classroom and allowed me to join in!!!!! She was great and the students were even greater so I just had to make something to remember them by......too bad this was made to give away!!!!! LOL.....I hope that you like it!!!!

more stuff......I haven't posted in about a month!!!!!

gift bags for my children's teacher gifts.
The one above and the one below are done for a black and white, and a color pop contest.....they are going to be a part of 2 separate albums that I am working on that are a memorial to one of my cousin's who passed away almost 4 years ago now. So you will see two of a lot of pages and I'm not going crazy, I promise.....at least no more so than I already am!!!!!! LOL!!!!!!

These two pages are created using the Eulogy that was read by his girlfriend's best friend at the funeral. This is not a type of page that I plan to do again.....it really took a lot of work and a lot of time.......I'm also not real sure that I truly like the pages!! you'll have to let me know if you like them!!!!!!

These are the 2009 desk calendar, post-it holder, and altered clipboards that I created for the teachers in the classrooms that my boys frequent.......I hope that they enjoy them!!!!!

I had a real habit of calling all of my pets FRED when I was a little girl.....this was my female cat that I had in 1984 when my younger brother was born.
The one above and the two below were created for a contest that required the use of a Christmas song in the title.....I chose to use Santa Claus is Coming to Town for all three and I made one page for each of my boys......I used the pictures from Christmas 2007.


Here is another set of pages about my cousin and the girl he was seeing when he passed away!!!
These two pages go along with the red pages in the blog entry before this one using the pagemaps sketch......These pics were taken at Showbiz Pizza Place when my cousin and I were 4 years old......It was my cousin's birthday party but we were only 6 weeks apart in age.

This set of layouts comes from a sketch from one of my Aussie Sites and it is about my cousin and his love for hunting!

Well I have one more post but it will be long as well.......I made a book using a school house template. We will upload this one next!!!! Thanks for looking!!!!!

Page Maps Sketch Blog Challenge



Hopefully I'm not to late to turn this one in!!!!!

This is created from a sketch by page maps......I have done 2 of the same page as I am making 2 of the same albums!!!!!

Sketchfest Dec 2008 at Creative Scrappers

Well, I don't have a whole lot of time or a whole lot of energy right now so I am not going to put a lot of information in here tonight......I just wanted to get some of my pages posted since I have been AWOL for a while......I have more to post from different competitions, but this is a start.....I really love working on the sketches that the ladies put up for the Sketchfest.......Tons of fun!!!!

Now I'm off to put my boys to sleep so I can go to bed.......I was up until 430am writing a paper only to get up at 630am to go to class to turn it in!!!! I don't think I like procrastination anymore.....It's a lot harder now that I have kids than it was a few years ago when I was single, that is to stay up all night and then get up and do it all over again.....wow I just can't do this anymore!
















Have a great day tomorrow.....talk at you guys later!!!!
