Some Girls Are Just Meant to Fly


A few weeks ago I won some 'candy' from a blog hop featuring Scrapmatts, and I decided to take a break from making greeting cards in order to create a 12" x 12" scrapbook page. Time flies, and it seems it's been awhile since I made a layout! College Girl provides ample photo ops for me and I am behind on scrapping some of my favorites.

On this page I did some border stitching and wrote
 If pictures say 1000 words, why do yours leave me speechless?  

 



This photo was taken as my daughter was leaving for Pref Day during her sorority's Fall Recruitment and she is wearing her kite necklace.  I used Kappa Alpha Theta symbolism: a kite, a punch to depict Pansies, and part of 1 Corinthians 13:13.



I also used Scrapmatts floral scroll, painted black, and the mini word 'admire'. College Girl is dedicated to her studies and I admire her well earned achievements.




During the past two weeks I have been cleaning house, Christmas shopping, toured a 100 year old home, visited Disneyland's Thor exhibit and still found time to walk. I am determined to get my daily walks, especially with the holidays on the horizon. Anyone started Christmas decorating? That's next on our agenda.
