Productivity from Saturday's Crop
Well, there were not as many people at the crop on Saturday as I'd hoped...but the Chugiak-Eagle River Relay for Life group is just getting these going, so they can only get better!!! And I did my part in buying products from other vendors, taking classes, donating profits from my sales, and bidding on silent auction items...all for a very good cause.
Of course I also enjoyed socializing with friends, meeting old friends (I learned the mother of one of the children who used to be at Erica's day care bought a scrapbooking store in the valley...how EXCITING!!!), and meeting some new friends. I also got a chance to be productive.
I finally scrapped Erica's first day of Kindergarten...I got a piece of paper from a gal at the crop and HAD to buy the whole pack this weekend. The paper is from the Die Cuts with a View Grade School Paper Pack...it's cool!!!
I also scrapped more Disney pix from 2008...I gotta finish those pix before I can do 2009, right? Ha...it sounds good, but I'm sure it won't happen that way. So these are some pix of the Hundred Acre Woods characters. I used a Tigger color blocked paper that I cut into pieces, a Pooh-Bear die cut (chalked) and some Pooh rub-ons (not sure on the mftr for the products, sorry).

Do you like flowers???
If you do, you MUST check out this site!!! I found this on the ACBailey Forum and LOVED it. My favorites are the word flowers and the flower garland. I'm going to use the word flower technique on a page and update this post with the result...what a neat idea for a different journaling technique!!! Come back to check it out...or even better, I challenge you to give it a try yourself!!! And if you have boys, try it with trucks, or a frog, or something "boy-ish."

Kit inpsirations
I've posted before about the AC Bailey Kits of the Month. I wanted to give you a little more inspiration on these...If you are already a subscriber to the kits, you'll want this file. This was put together by one of the AC Bailey instructors from the projects posted by the Consultant Design Team. And there are more inspirations in the gallery filed under the Feb KOTM. A few of my projects are out there, too...and they're also posted on prior posts in my blog. Enjoy the inspiration and come back to get the March inspiration. Oh, I have the March flyer, but I can't post it as a pix...so email me if you want a copy early.

I'm a "Challenge" Girl!!!
Ha...two posts in a day and another layout finished! And I think I've figured out my mojo...I know I thrive on challenges at work, but I didn't realize until today that I also thrive on them in my scrapbooking. My second layout today was based on a challenge. Thank goodness for AC Bailey and their Design Team. They have such inspiring challenges. This is a layout based on the Feb Design Team Sketch Challenge. And check it out...the photos are askew (that's always been hard for my geometric mind to deal with).
The papers and chipboard letters are Making Memories, the felt butterflies are Jenni Bowlin. Stay tuned for more layouts inspired by the AC Bailey Design Team!!!
