Bowling 3.0

With teenagers, I am often not included in their "events"...luckily, their camera phones and iTouch obsession with Instagram allows me to snag their photos so I can still scrap the fun!  Inspired by the simplicity of the Instagram format that my daughter used to take these photos, I created this layout documenting her bowling day.  Each semester, the Humanitas program that she is enrolled in at school rewards the kids with above 3.0 GPAs.  This semester's reward was bowling!  Even though she didn't "win"..she had a blast hanging with her classmates, bowling, eating pizza and just being outside of school for a day!

As design notes, I fussy cut the bowling pins and ball from the Sports Head On Bowling paper and used Glossy Accents on the ball to give it a bit more dimension.  The pins are pop dotted off the "lane" I created from the Girls Rule Track paper, too.

Sophomore Year 2011

It's hard to believe that summer is gone and we have already experienced the first snow fall of the "winter".  It seems like the first day of school was just a couple of days ago.  I had fun using up my scraps of paper to create this fun colorful layout.  I can't bear to through away any piece of these bright fun papers!  What do you create with your scraps?

Freshman Year...Where did it go?

I have always heard that once your kids get into high school you barely have time to blink and they are leaving for college.  I have to say as fast as Victoria's Freshman year flew by, I believe it!  I can't believe we are already in the last week of school, it doesn't seem possbile that it has been 10 months since these pictures were taken.  I am thankful that I got to use the new School is Cool line from Scrappin' Sports & More to scrap these special pictures!  I love how easy it is to combine grades and even added the custom paper too!  If you haven't used this paper yet, we will be having a fun giveaway soon, so stay tuned!!
