How cool is this!

OK, so one of the challenges at SSD was to alter a clipboard. I hadn't done that before, but wanted to give it a go. I decided to make Brooke a Day Planner so she can see what activities she has on each day of the week and used photos that she relates to each different activity. I used the gift box image to represent something special - it could be something she chooses, or an activity I already have planned, but something we would not normally do as part of our routine. Today she is going to her cousin Logan's birthday party, so we used it there. All the photos are moveable and can be changed around according to what we're doing that week. What do you think? I'm just rapt with it, and really enjoyed making it. Brooke of course thinks it's just wonderful too :)

I also did a layout for the Sugar Free Challenge at SSD. We had to scrap something that we second guess ourselves about. My biggest challenge is finding a balance between scrapping and family time. It's so easy to get caught up on the computer, and I have to really make an effort during the day to stay off the computer and spend time with the girls.
