Girls camp scrapbook journal

I went to Girl's camp this year and we made a scrapbook journal as one of our camp crafts. We used Readers Digest Condensed versions as our book. We took out some of the pages. When I glued my scrapbook pages in, my pages started falling out, so I took the spine off the book and used rings to hold the book and pages together. I think it made it easier to write in my journal, so Im glad that I had to find a way to hold my pages together. This is the finished project.

This is the first page in my journal

Our theme for camp was the Forget Me Nots.

This is Day 1

Day 2

Day 3

Day 4

Day 5

I had extra pages so I added these.
This is a picture of the new Brigham City temple that is being built close to me.

I liked this quote.

I also liked this quote.

I thought this could be extra room to write or pictures??

at the back I put an envelope to keep memorabilia from camp.

This is what the envelope looks like when its open.

Thanks for stopping by!! Leave me a comment so Ill know you were here.

Hang in There card

I haven't been making much lately, and I thought it would be fun to try to make some cards. I totally scraplifted this card from Leigh Ann Baird. (I bought these stamps because of her card.) The stamps are from Paper Smooches. I'm hoping to make more cards and come up with my own ideas...but tonight I didn't want to have to think of what to do, and I loved this card...so I gave it a try. I like it :)

School dance ask/answer ideas

I thought that if I posted these, it may help someone else (like me) who goes to the internet to help my kids find creative ways to ask/answer for a school dance.
I thought this was cute. A girl asked my son this way.

He simply took the YES rock back to her to answer.

School dance ask/answer ideas

Brady asked when I wasnt home, so I dont have pictures of his asking. He wanted to ask by getting Crush soda and saying I'd be "crush"ed if you didnt go to the dance with me, but he couldnt find the soda, so he got some cry baby candy and said I would be a Cry Baby if you didnt go to the dance with me.
This is her response.

I think he unwrapped 4 boxes inside of boxes. There were pop rocks as he unwrapped too.

In the last box was rocks. The note says: Id be dumber than a box of rocks if I didnt say YES!

Young Women gifts

Sorry I haven't posted for a while. Life just got too busy.
I am in the Stake Young Women's presidency. We are making these as gifts for girls who earn their personal progress...get it? "Purse"onal Progress. Inside are 8- 3x3 cards, one for each value. (to see what the purse looks like with cards inside, see this post) Each card is decorated in the color of the value and there's a little quote about the value on the card. The girls have really liked these. We also give them to leaders who earn theirs as well. Cute huh?

I was trying to get ahead so I made several on this day.

I used Die Cuts with a View paper stack (La Creme) and ribbon. Easy to make, just time consuming.
Thanks for stopping by, Ill try to update more often.

6x6 tiles

I thought I had already uploaded these. I made some 6x6 tiles like my 4x4 coasters, but I put the 6x6 tiles in a stand to display them. This is what I came up with for these.
The snowman pattern is from the "I Believe" book by Art to Heart. It's a quilt book. I used Echo Park papers on this.

This Santa pattern came from the same book. I used Basic Grey papers on this one.

and this one came from the book as well. I used Basic Grey papers for this one.

I hope you all have a Merry Christmas!!
