Kidz Krafts = June 24, 2009

Once again, I had an awesome Kidz Krafts group!! Sarah, Madison, Gabi and Victoria got to make a cute wipe-off board using an 8x10 picture frame. The girls painted the frame and then put together an 8x10 scrap page to use as the back ground. As soon as the girls were done putting their wipe-off board together they began writting on it. Some girls made up rules for their room, some girls wrote down what they need to do everyday. My friend, Merry, was my special guest. We had a fantastic time and the girls are NOT camera shy!

For our next Kidz Krafts we will create 12x12 scrap pages.
Date: Wednesday, July 8th
Time: 5:30 PM - 7:30 PM
Cost: $15.00
Other: You child can bring 6-10 pictures
Location: Joey's Scrap Room

Michael Jackson: The King of Pop

August 29, 1958 – June 25, 2009

Paying tribute to Michael Jackson. I grew up listening to his music and even had posters of him on my wall. As he got older…he got weirder and weirder…but I choose to remember him as he was from my childhood. I LOVED his Thriller album and still have it on CD. His music has been playing on the radio all day….. He has forever changed dancing, music and videos.

Post Cards for my Friend...




My dearest friend asked me to make post cards for her daughter before she headed off to college. These are a few post cards I came up with. Since the cards will not be in clear envelopes I could not use a lot of embellishments. Everything is adhered using Liquid Glass. I love that stuff!! It really works. The back of the cards are pretty much the same.

I hope Kelsey uses these post cards to keep in touch with family and friends as she begins a new chapter in her life.

Congratulations Kelsey!!
