My goodness, February was busy!
We went to see Phineas and Ferb Live, we had Kindergarten Valentine's Parties, Dr Seuss's Birthday/Jammie Day and it was Denver Restaurant Week. We had a very full calendar and we had a blast!
Other notable items on the list. Mallory learned to read and Alex had a double ear infection, but it didn't keep him down....in fact I think he rather enjoyed the extra pampering from me.
I love the idea that Jessica shared with us last month about lifting the picture and writing underneath it! Brilliant! Mallory and I experimented with cutting out the background on a picture in her Hello Kitty Smash Book and I like it.
I like stacking the pictures, because I have so many there wouldn't be room to put them all on the page. I tried another new trick and attached the kids valentines to paper clips and attached them to the spiral. This way they are floating and can be moved to see more. That is actually pictures of the valenties...to make them extra sturdy.
I added another word to my cover. Do you agree?
Are you SMASHing YOUR YEAR? We want to see your pages!
Leave the link in the comments or share it on my facebook page.
That is the coolest memory storage idea!
ReplyDeleteLOVE the Valentine's idea!! Those pages look awesome! I'm glad we're doing this-- you keep me motivated! Great job!!
ReplyDeleteThanks! Get on it, girl!
DeleteWho doesn't love a lift the flap book? Those were my favorite as a kid. Great way to use the page space.
ReplyDeleteThanks! It really is a great way to use space.
DeleteI'm so gonna have to do a Smash Book next year... this awesome. Maybe it'll reignite me with the scrapbooking that I dropped so long ago...
ReplyDeleteYou totally have to do this next year. OR THIS YEAR! Start with March. It's not too late.
DeleteYOU need to smash MY year!!! This looks so fun, friend.
ReplyDeleteAre you feeling better? Sorry I've been so bad about visiting...see...I've been..super busy! *ahem* I'm so lazy.
I tagged you. :)

LOVE the Smash Book! Love it! You are doing a great job, too - very creative! I have been trying to do Project Life, and I love it.
ReplyDeleteWHat is Project Life?
DeleteI like these because they are scrapbooky, but not scrapbooks and it looks like they don't require as much work. True or not true?
ReplyDeleteIt takes very little time. I made these pages in 20 minutes while watching TV!
DeleteNice work, Dear!
ReplyDeleteTHANKS HONEY!!
