LOTS of words this week. A friend posted a thread over at Studio Calico about not feeling like she had enough pictures, because she hasn't had much going on lately...and I SO get where she's coming from. As I've said before, there aren't a ton of 'exciting' things happening around here either lol...we're home bodies who lead a pretty routine life. So this week, I printed just a few pics and journaled the HECK out of them.The top two slots were all about our Saturday night...we got together with 2 very dear families to cheer on the boys freshman basketball team in the brand new gym at my alma mater. I can't even say how much it meant to be there...for him and for us. It was surreal to watch Allie walk around with her friends, knowing that in another year she'll be a freshman herself. Lots of emotions that evening, for sure. Which meant lots of words. :)
Used Marcy's 4x6 journailng cards again to type my story on...and my beloved alphabet stamps in our school colors. I had these Fancy Pants rub-ons in my stash that I knew would come in handy...I was right. I used them all over this week's page.
Really love using a 4x6 card + slot for a run-down of the week. I had cut the 'hello' with my Cameo + POW glitter paper for an SC project, and cut out the negative to use here...couldn't bear to throw it away. Also LOVE including a 'text of the week'...this one was funny to me because Allie & I came to a compromise about what she would wear to the game via text. The large photo shows her tech-friendly gloves, so it kind of all ties in. (I think, lol.)Still loving the word bubbles...while talking with Lisa about them one evening, I sat and made a bunch of random ones all at once. Now I just reach into my stash that are pre-cut if I need a little 'something'. I cut them with all different words...and will probably use one per week.
Again, if you have any questions, please ask...I will reply to them, I promise!!
Have a great week!
:)
Loving you week, Nik, and I can definitely relate to living a "boring" life. Thank you for sharing :)
