St Patricks Day-Go Green

This is St Patricks Day at school-in 2009 when Kandis was in 5th Grade.. I missed it this year at school.. I hate that I didnt get a picture of them all dressed up in Green this year.. Mrs Starr always throws them a GREEN party at school on this day! Oh what fun-Green everything-from snacks to drinks-and green hats and glasses and necklaces.. oh to be a kid in 5th grade-hehe.. This page scanned a little funny up top on my scanner program but it is really cute.. I had some cute st patty's day paper -i just layered it all up-and inked it all to death. I had some green sparkly/glitter letters I used for St. Patricks Day .. Then I Had thickers I used for go green. The strip on the bottom that is designed was white-I used some green glimmer mist on it.. I had got the cute gem clovers on clearance for like 50 cents at Michaels.. Then my little parthenasis(sp?) is My Minds Eye maybe..
So if u need a GREEN page-here it is...
Here is Kandis this year before she went to school on St Patrick's Day.. She was GREENED out from head to toe!!She wore my sweat pants to school that were like 10 sizes to big on here becuz' they were too green. She just stuffed them into her boots though.. She was very cute!

COSI Fun

SUPER simple page here-I know I say that a lot-I guess when u look at them from my view after they are done they all seem that way-hehe.. BUT this page didnt take me long at all.. Probably the longest part of this was cutting the letters out on my cricket and then gluing them all back together.. lol My COSI letters look exactly like the sign outside the place-i love my letters-i used the mikey mouse font cartridge for this and my #'s.. I did my journaling with my white pin again on the outside of the paper.. I had to add me some jewels...
This was a fun trip that the 3rd-7th graders at school made back in March of this year to COSI in Columbus Ohio.. If U live close and havent been there-u should go-SOON!! hehe
SO if U need a fun-bright-fast page-try this one out!!!

Thankful

Here is a page from Thanksgiving 2008 when my daughter was in 5th grade.. again-a page for the teacher's book I made.. My daughter is the bowl of mashed potatoes with the slab of butter on her head.. Her class was doing a skit for their annual Thanksgiving program.
I love the way this page turned out.. I used my bendie ruler again for this.. I just stacked 2 sheets of paper on top of each other-the red and yellow papers. I made the design with the ruler then cut them both at the same time and then they fit all together like this.. I matted the yellow and red to a peice of white paper.. Then matted the white paper to a stripped peice of paper.. I cut out the Thankful from my cricket. I love all the journaling down the middle of the white strips. I cut out a little circle notch out of each end and placed a jewel there-u could add a jewel or eyelet or brad.. Of course I had to ink it all up.. lol I am anxious to try this page out a few different ways here in the near future!!

My Crazy Kids

I think this is the 2nd page I did for Mrs Starr's book.. I added a little of everything to this page. This is Kandis' 2 classes from the last 2 years. The top one is from her 5th grade year in 2008/2009. Then the bottom one is this year in 6th grade.. I am always taking group pictures of these kids as much as I can but then we have to get a silly picture-which comes easy for these group of kids-or any I am sure!! lol
The arrow I cut out here is from a template I bought at CKC a year or so ago.. The letters I used are cut from my cricket. I stickled both the arrow and the letters. Then the cream thing i put the letters on-I ran it thru my cuttlebug. The roll call card-is just a card I bought at my friends scrapbook store. I wish I had another one now.. I have learned to copy them on my printer/scanner. I forgot on this one.. I did all my journaling on my computer.. and just cut them and ink them into strips. The FUN is a 3-D cardstock sticker from K&C company. I added the flowers and added jewels to them. There u go..
The Crazy kids on one of the very last days of school.. See what I mean-always gotta have that silly picture.. So funny!!! I love these kids

Some of Mrs. Starr's 5th and 6th Graders at awards night!! They are all always smiling.. hehe

Ok I had to post this one too-Mrs Starr's 6th Graders trying to pull one over on her during awards night.. They gave her a 8X10 picture of the girls, a bouquet of roses, some green citrus tea for all the tea they have drunk of her's this year, and a swimming pool float for her to relax on this summer in her new Pool.. We didnt pull one over though-she had bouquet of daisys for each of the girls behind the trophy's and a giftcard from gamestop for Matt.. how sweet.

Awards Night 2009

So if U have kids U have probably attended a Awards ceremony in the last month-academic or sports-hehe.. This page is another page for the teachers book. This is last years Awards night-2009. The big 5X7 pic is of my daughter's 5th grade class with Mrs. Starr.. then the bottom pic is of both the 5th and 6th graders together.. It was also a simple page... I used my bendie ruler my cousin Paula bought me to make the waves up the middle of the paper... It is 3 different sheets of paper I used here.. My little trophy is a new cuttlebug cutout and embosser thing I just got for $2 Big Lots.. Thanks to Wendy for finding such great cuttlebug folders for so cheap... My letters are stickers. That's all to this page...

This is Thursday night, June 3rd, at awards night at school.. All 4 of the 6th graders.. Which are all now 7th graders!!! Congrats kids on a job well done-and a even bigger thanks to Mrs Starr for another Great Year!!!!

My Girls

Another one of the pages I did for Mrs Starr.. She only had 4 kids in my daughter's 6th grade class and 3 of them are girls. Then in the 5th grade there were 7 boys. So these 3 girls were considered "MY GIRLS".. I love the pictures of all 3 girls-i took them during class one day this year.. The top picture is Amarissa(my daughter's BFF), then Kandis, and Deanna. All 3 girls have gone to school together since k-4. So we are 8 years strong now here..
My page is matted on all red but my scanner didnt show that all that good.. I love the bright colors on this.. I actually did some sowing on a sowing machine my mom is letting me use-I got to the end and it quit working but at least it worked for this.. My letters are stickers.. I inked a lot on this. Then I just put jewels everywhere-I LOVE jewels.. This page is sooo simple but sooo pretty and happy!!! Just like these girls..

Here is a picture of Mrs. Starr, Kandis, & Rissa Thursday night at awards night-June 3rd.. How how I love these 3 girls..

Then earlier on Thursday the whole class had a WV University Day. Their teacher is a die hard WVU fan.. Like all the kids ALMOST-hehe.. They had a contest to see who could wear the most blue & gold too.. My little blue haired girl won.. She has a thing for contests.. She goes NUTS!!! hehe...
I have lots more pages to come!!!

Teacher & Friend-Mrs Starr

No I havent stopped scrapbooking-LOL.. I have actually been scrapbooking like a busy bee... I have been working on a scrapbook for my daughter's school teacher. I was pushing for a 20 page book but since I am such a procrastonator I got 15 done before I gave it to her today-on our last day of school.. I might have gotten a couple more pages in also but as I would do a page for her-I would go ahead and cut out everything for my daughter's 6th grade book that I will work on soon. SO now it will be a matter of sitting down and putting it together and adding her pics to the pages and her journaling. I am sure the pages will end up looking different but the same?
This 1st page is of Kandis and her teacher, Mrs Starr, over the last 2 years. She has had the same teacher now for 2 years.. Mrs Starr has been her teacher now for 5th & 6th grades.. Our daughters also play volleyball together and cheerlead together.. So we will not be far from each other next year. lol
I love all the distressing on this page of course.. it actually made my hand cramp i distressed so much-lol.. Of course if u distress U have to ink. I added a few rub ons in the corners. I was happy to fit so many pics on this.. Something I dont seem to do with all my 1 page layouts. Can never have a page with out a jewel or a flower-ha...
It's been a busy couple of weeks with school ending.. We have had parties-Amusement parks-Awards nights-family for holidays. It's been fun... My daughter is now a 7th Grader.. Blows my mind.. We are officially on SUMMER Break for the summer now though!!!!!!!! yippee-Late Nights-Sleeping In-Sun-Pool-Lazy Days!!!! woot woot!!
