Elliot's Valentines.

This year we were going to make an idea we saw on Pinterest. It was a heart that says something like "you light up my life" with a glow stick through it. This morning I got on the computer to print these out and checked Face Book first. My friend liz posted a picture of a light saber with a glow stick through that. I loved it. I knew Elliot would love it. I remembered about a picture we took for his star wars party. I pulled it up and thought it would be perfect for his valentine. Did I mention I love Storybook Creator Plus from Creative Memories for Digital Scrapbooking and anything else. I designed the Valentine and then ordered them from Costco. Cut some slits and put in a glow stick. They turned out pretty cut if I do say so myself. Now the hard part. Elliot writing by hand everyone's names on the envelopes. Wish me luck!
This is what the card looked like before the glow stick.
This is what it looks like with the glow stick.
(the light of the stick made it hard to get a good picture)
Happy Valentines Day!

Elliot's School Scrapbook!

As a scrapbooker there is much thought and deliberation put into starting a new scrapbook. Elliot is in 1st grade now and it is time to get his book going. Digital, Traditional, Hybrid, what should I do. I decided to do hybrid. This will allow the pages to be done Digitally or Traditionally and I can add in his artwork and pages he brings home. Here is the first layout. Our PreSchool FT to Lane Farms. If you look closely you or your children may be on these pages as well. Many more will be added soon.
