a few good ones

layouts. the creative juices are flowing. i am getting caught up before school starts. so much fun.

A page on the haircut. You have no idea what a "big deal" it was for me to chop of my hair. I feel so very brave and a lot prettier, dare I say sexier now. I just decided to forgo making it a "perfect" page and just journaled my heart out.

I haven't torn paper, or vellum for that matter in a long time. it had been to long, much too long. the "merry christmas" sticker is what I sealed my Christmas cards 2006 with.

Below is my page on journaling, which I have been dying to do for a long time. I have been journaling for a long, long time, and you can see the stack of filled journals-


Muddy Paws is an awesome cheesecake place here in town. I love it. Jana loves it. I did not match that ribbon on purpose, it just so happened that I had letters in those both exact colors. neat.

My BYU acceptance page. I know it seems like a strange thing to sb, but in the future I'll be glad I did this. I used an actual brocure as you can see-

Kraft backgrounds are just perfect. I love using them. Isn't that rolling pin charm sweet? I am so glad I found it.

The numbers below came in a huge 12x12 sheet- it took a while to cut them out so they wouldn't look bad or disconnected. Ben gave me the tickets to be sure that they got into my scrapbook. How thoughtful.

Man oh Man I should say you've been at it- They all look fabulous! The last one is my favorite- like all the numbers at the bottom.

Cute pages! THe BYU and basketball pages are my favorites. I love how you used a decidedly girly paper to make a decidedly NOT girly page! That's awesome!

I love the hair cut page. I am impressed that you can do so many pages so quickly, I love how you don't try to be perfect with every single page element. Scrapbooking must be so fun that way. I need to learn to let go!

Ok so what's the deal with Ben?? :)

Oh my goodness, I'm loving everything! And you're making me so jealous -- I'm dyyyying to get my stuff out of boxes and start scrappin'.
I love the free-form journaling on the hair page, the numbers transparency, and the BYU layout is a perfect topic to scrapbook.
Now could you please send some sb-ing mojo my way?

I scrapbooked my BYU acceptance letter too, and so I don't think it is strange at all. Those rolls look so yummy, by the way. I still need to get that recipe book.
