To the right I have a close up of my net; I tied this myself people! I know I'm a little nuts... I took just regular pieces of twine, cut them my desired length and got a knottin' It took forever but I am very pleased with the end look! To the right [bottom] I have a close up of my charms. The carriage I cut out from my scrapbook paper and the little dress I actually used from a really old bracelet. Side note: If you have old charms, material, textures etc. keep it in your scrapbooking area. I have used so much stuff that most would think was junk. These little things add so much life to your page and cost $0.00! | This one is just a single page instead of a spread. My neice Taiz is so cute! She makes this page so much better! Favorites: 1. ScrapQueens cricket sign 2. Dragon sticker 3. Crown on "scrap" word 4. The net 5. Hanging charms |

1. Using the poster I got from the game for the "Goooal!" [p. 1], team crest [p. 1] and team picture [p. 2]. I love incorporating things I get from actual events on the page. It always brings different textures and fonder memories! 2. Use of stapler on my letter to attach the tafita. Also the staples to attach my writing paper. 3. Foam to pop out some of my lettering, "REAL" [p.1] and "Jacob" [p. 2] 4. Ha ha to this day I still manage to have something misspelled on my pages! Oh well, something for the kiddies to laugh at I guess...or something for Jake to laugh at. Stinker.
This page is one of my favorites.
I love, love, love the color scheme. For my red, blue and tan stripes I used scraps. I love scraps. I have a lot of love today I guess... I only had one "light blue whale" paper but I wanted to use it on both pages (to tie them together). Dilema? No... I cut off the bottom 3 inches and used the main portion on page 1. The extra 3 inches I turned vertical for the right side of page 2. The shells were cut with the cricket. I tied the net [bottom of page 2] together using thick white string. I hand cut the "tags" from page 2 and used a hole punch for the circle. I cut out one of the whales (from my paper), added some hand cut "waves and "14" (# of lifeguards) to the first tag. For the second tag I wrote the name of our pool and the "Summer '10." I always write a date on my pages; no use documenting memories if you can't remember when they are from! :)
