just a quickie, i’ve got 2 things to share. J has the day off and we’re going to the pool… its only open for 2 hours (3-5p) because of summer fun so we’re trying to get all our errands done so we can take full advantage of it!

the first thing to share is the composition book i altered for albert… he needed one for summer school just a quickie, took me all of 10 minutes to do. i wanted to keep it as flat as possible, i figured he wouldn’t exactly be gentle with it and the more things that stood off the cover and could snag and rip, would. murphy’s law, or something like it, right??

the second is a quickie layout i made for a few challenges: Sketch #193 and Inspiration Found #42, both from SCS, as well as Shimelle’s Color Challenge #5 – Use color in a symbolic way. its all about the YELLOW its actually a color i don’t tend to scrap with but i have a hefty handful i actually intended on this being a school themed page but i couldn’t get my printer to print out any pictures in normal colors… my kids aren’t purple and brown… so i went through my picture stash and made it work!! sorry about the weird angle, the background paper is lace paper by KI Memories and wherever you see that white is actually the chipboard backing that’s supporting the page… it wouldn’t stand any other way and i couldn’t shoot it straight on because of the glare. i’ll get better at my pictures i promise!!

journaling talks about how rare it is to catch albert on camera NOT smiling because of his love to play and the energy he exudes all the time, and about how he brightens up the room around him just by being in it.
