New Projects

I was hoping to start off the week with a recap of our trip and some pics . . . but I didn't get to that this weekend :)

Little League season has started for us. The girls' teams are already practicing three days a week (they are on different age-level teams). The boys won't start up until the end of March. I think four kids in softball/baseball may keep me a little busy this spring.

Last night I had to take Miranda to get some new softball cleats. Size 6 womens! I didn't wear a size 6 in shoes until later in high school. Hmmmm . . . I think she is going to be taller than me pretty soon.

Before we left on our trip to California, I had finished up my Polka Dot Whimsy February kit projects. The main kit was full of awesome primary colors! I have found that I really prefer working with brighter colors. Soft, muted tones . . . not so much. But to each her own, right? Anyhow, here they are:

Reds and blues--awesome to use with Krish's Norway project photos.

So I'll admit I wasn't in love with the JBS patterned paper HOWEVER I thought it ended up matching nicely with these photos of Merek I'm sure he'll hate me for when he is older. Too funny of a story though not to include in his album :)
It's taken me a year to scrap this picture. Sad memories from it--gosh, I can't even type them now.


I have some projects with the February add-on, too, and will post those this week.

Great projects! I really like how you used the JBS paper. It went great with those shots of Merek (too funny!!!). Neat idea to use the fabric/pins tied on your tag. You are so creative. :)
