Inspiration

So...,completely inspired by the American Crafts website yesterday, I made a can of flowers, and did a layout!! I needed a diversion, and it was nice to scrap again! My flowers are somewhat different from those on the website, but I had to use what I had! Such cute ideas!!


My can of flowers


The flowers that inspired me!


It seems that 2 days of sunshine was enough for around here, cuz the rain is back! Man I was really liking the 70's! On the otherhand, my allergys are better today...probably because of the rain! So, guess I can't complain!


It was Tanner's turn to be "The first mate of the week" at school this week. His class is the "Whitworth Pirates"....the classes all have college names, and they even have a cheer and everything! So Monday after school, Tanner pulls out this white piece of paper and says he has to bring it back on Tuesday!!! Now this isn't something that I take lightly....so out comes the Cricuit cutting machine and Tan and I get to work. He decided his favorite color this week is Orange, so we went with Orange gray and black. Tanner colored in the letters, making designs and all, and the border. When it was all finished, I had to run to Freddy's at 10:30 and pick up a black poster board...it needed more besides the white!! Tanner was pleased with the outcome! Whew...we did it!! The next morning when Tanner was having breakfast he said that he had to help a kid in his class with his last month, because he kept on forgetting to do it! Poor kid, but sweet of Tanner to help his little friend feel special! Tanner gets to do all sorts of fun things this week on his class, and he's excited it's his turn!
