Not Just Another Monday

Nope! Today is a big day in our house. Jordan started 8th grade, Maxwell is in 3rd grade at a new school, and my little one met with his Kindergarten teacher. :( So please excuse my tardiness on our Monday Challenge: sewing. Ironically, I picked the challenge this week. :) My machine is broken so I borrowed my mom's and was excited to put it to a little use. It is different than my own and I can't figure out how the change the stitch yet but it was fun pushing the pedal! :) Hope you are all having a great MONDAY! :)

Vintage Hip Hop

Hip Hop! You are gonna LOVE this new Scrapbooking Kit from Unity! Le Chic Vintage is available September 1st.

I used the kit (along with the Just My Type & Frame This Alpha) to make a journal about my year 2009. It is a place to write about my year...what I did and learned. I left room to add to it as the year progresses.

Lots of journaling on this one...

Places I have/will travel to this year.

My 'everday' list

I won't bore you with all my journaling. :)

Taking Risks...

I just love this quote from the August Kit of the Month. I am not a huge risk taker but I know you gotta take them to live, right? :) This card was my attempt at yesterday's color challenge and today's sketch challenge on SCS.
