Make Something Every Day: Day Five

Between work, Math tests, and swim practice, Esme and I didn't have much time at home together today, so we decided on a nice easy project tonight.  We played around with our crafty supplies to make tags that could either be used for scrapbooking or Christmas projects.  Esme decided to make hers ornaments.

I've used things I've been into lately for scrapbooking: doilies, aluminum duct tape, felt, other fabrics, and twine.  Esme used punches, which are one of her favorite scrapbook tools.  She also used colored pencils and ink pads quite a bit.

snowed in AGAIN

Well this is the SIXTH day school has been cancelled in the city where I work this year. Luckily, my long term assignment ended yesterday so today I would have been off anyway. What's a girl to do when snowed in? Scrap of course!


Since I didn't have any page kits ready to go, I took a bunch of tags and stamps next door so I could visit Shannon and Baby Andrew and just did some experimenting. I am ashamed to say I am totally behind the times when it comes to all the cool mists out there. I have 2 store-bought bottles and one I made myself following tips from 2 Peas. I made three tags using varying amounts of layering, stamping, punching, and misting. Ready to give it a go on a page now.
