Scrapbook projects

.

What a handsome guy!! I can't believe he is a senior this year!!! Where did the time go? He will be 18 in November!!! This is the altered clipboard I made for my last class.
Anyhow, as usual our life this past week was crazy, busy! Between picture day at school, field trips and my new subbing job at the school I feel like I am constantly going, going, going. I finally got my sub # so I can sub part time for any other EAs that may need some time off or call in sick. It is a nice few extra hours and I love being at the school anyhow.
I have been very busy making cards and explosion boxes for Mary's vendor fair. I am very excited to see how people respond to them. I also got an idea from mom who got the idea from someone else who got the idea from someone else..... to make gift card holders. They are really cute. Now I just have to find or make envelopes to go with them.

They open up and you put a gift card in and give it to someone as a gift!

I also have been working on some new cards.

CK Seattle is coming up in a couple of weeks. For those of you who don't scrapbook, this is a convention put on by Creating Keepsakes Magazine. All of the who's who in scrapbooking will be there. So far Mom and I have met Ali, Lisa, Stacy, Tracy White and Sandi Genovese. It's great fun, usually we volunteer in classes, to get a lot of freebies and meet some really cool people. I can't wait to take a little "ME" time. I really need a break from all of my projects and work!

I hope everyone is doing well!

P.S. This is why I scrapbook. The boys are finally getting to the age where they will actually pull out a scrapbook and look through it. I love watching their eyes light up when they remember a special event and talk about all of the fun we had.

This night Beau pulled out the Disneyland album and they had a blast showing "K" all of the fun places we went. She has never been out of Bend so, it was really neat for her to get to see some of the places we saw and it was cool to hear Beau talk about everything he could remember. This is why I scrapbook!!!
