So Happy to See You!

Last Monday night we went to our son's school to meet his new fourth grade teacher. It was also a great opportunity to say hello to his third grade teacher whom he adored. As soon as he saw Mrs. Walter he ran to her and gave her a great big hug! It's so awesome to see Christopher enjoy his teachers so much! They are like a great big happy family!

I used some Ki Memories papers from their  2008 School Days line. Feels good to use some of my stash of patterned papers! I bought some new stuff this year, but it just didn't work with my photo. The apple is a Silhouette die cut and the ruler, pencil, star, smiley face and journaling card accents are from October Afternoon's  Report Card line.

Well, hope you enjoy the rest of your weekend! I appreciate you taking the time to stop by! Yesterday I went Antiquing with a dear friend and found some pretties that I think I might post tomorrow. Tuesday will be more fun projects from the Digital Doodles design team so I hope you will come back then! :) Kathy

Baby it's Cold Outside!

Is it cold outside or what? Even Florida is experiencing below normal temperatures. Here in North Carolina we've been below normal for days and there's no end in sight. It only got a couple degrees above freezing today! Where are you and how cold is it there? Well, cold weather means indoor activities like scrapbooking! Here's a page I finished last night. I think I posted my baking adventures with Audrey a couple weeks ago. Well, here's the page. Great memories!

I also had a chance to make this simple Valentine card last night. I really like my Silhouette! The die cuts you can make are so fun! If you are thinking of a die cutter, I highly recommend the Silhouette!

So what do you like to do when the weather is a bit frightening outside? Have you been making Valentine cards or crafts? I'll have to go blog visiting and see what's going on your way. If you're reading this, leave me a comment with your blog address so I can go check it out!
