Everyday Things

Finally finding times for everyday things...like making dinner in my kitchen and getting errands done-feeling like I accomplished something.  Steve and I have a clear weekend coming up and have plans to take the kids to do something fall related.  It is about time!

One thing we did a ton this summer is go to the library.  We needed a cool place to hang out and I loved that it was educational too!  I brought my camera one day and caught some photos of them.  I wonder if people think I am nuts?  I stopped today in the vegetable aisle at Stew Leonards and took a picture of the colored cauliflower with my camera phone.  I had no idea cauliflower could be purple.  So I take pictures!

Here is the layout.  I used the new Old School collection by Pink Paislee.  This line is quite awesome to work with...the colors and patterns.  I am in love with this "days of the week" paper!


To create my heading, I cut out the words of this die-cut:


and I layered from there!  The canvas borders are some of my favorite things!  I actually used my kid's library card sleeve on this layout to give it an authentic feel and to have a piece of history with the library's name on it!


I have been scrapping regularly for a while now and have been experimenting a bit.  A simple joy that makes me happy!

What are your everyday things?

  7. Love this page and I soooo want to get back to some of my own scrapping. I've been making a few cards, but one I've done my teaching, I don't seem to do a lot of my own! This is inspiring for sure!
