Shiver Book Review

March 6, 2013

     I recently finished reading Shiver (the Wolves of Mercy Falls #1) by Maggie Stiefvater, and have to say I’m pleasantly surprised. I didn’t have high expectations since it was a teen drama book, but wanted something light to fill my lunch break.  This was perfect.
     I would imagine this is what Twilight would have been if about Jacob and Bella rather than Bella and Edward.  I rather liked the main male character Sam as you really can feel that he wants to be a better person, and tries to do what’s right. 
     I did feel about Grace the same way as I do about Bella though…ugh!  Sam wants to be a better person…to learn…to do the right thing.  Grace only wants Sam.  I’d really like to see a teen heroine that can stand on her own two feet, and have a boyfriend!
I’m interested to see where the series goes though as this really could have ended with just this book.  I’ll keep you posted on my thoughts about Linger and Forever, and I’d love to hear what you’re reading right now.

About A Boy Feb 15th Challenge

March 1, 2013

      I’ve always done my scrapbooks for my enjoyment, and never given it another thought.  Then this month a friend of mine entered a challenge on the About A Boy Challenge Blog.  She shared her creation on her blog C’est La-Vie Designs Unltd., LLC.  
     I’d never heard of a challenge blog, but it was it a fun thing to look through everyone ideas.  I decided that since all of scrapbooking revolves around our son Michael it shouldn’t be hard to have something to enter.
     I took the pictures from the first day of his first vacation.  The top two are him waiting to go, and the bottom two are when we arrived. We left two days before his 7m birthday.  It was also Dylan (I have always called him just D) and I’s sixth anniversary, and D’s first Father’s Day.  We went with my parents and my younger sister (she was 17 at the time and I was 30!).  It was such a special trip.
    I would say my scrapbooking style is very simple, but I’ve been trying to use some new techniques and branch out.  The ribbon on the page was something new for me.  I never seem to have luck getting it straight.  
    Thanks for looking, and I hope to have lots more to share with you soon.

Supplies List:

Patterned Paper – Linen Door Boy Stripe @ Hobby Lobby
Green Paper – Certainly Celery – Stampin’ Up
Blue Paper – Bazzill
Ribbon – Purchased at Scrapbook Expo
Stickers – Creative Memories sample pack (I’ve had this for almost 10 years)
Writting – Zig Memory SystemWriter – Pure Brown
Adhesive – Scotch ATG

Toilet Paper Roll Mini Album – Fail

February 27, 2013

     I recently heard of an idea to use your toilet paper rolls to make mini albums.  I had been saving mine for toddler crafts, but thought I’d give it a try. I’ve wanted to start making some mini albums to have on hand for gifts rather than always having to run out and buy a little something.  I don’t know how others are getting this to look good, but it was a total fail for me.  Please watch, and I’d love to hear your suggestions!
