Every month on the Jillibean blog, Jill hosts a designer challenge. They are fun to participate in and the themes make me break out of my usual box. This month's theme was to scrap yourself! Ack. I never take photos of me  - so this was definitely a challenge!
I used a lot of new Jillibean goodies on this one. Mainly from Coconut Lime and Chicken Dumpling Soup. Be sure to check out all of the other DT girls pages for this challenge as well!

Glasses

I got a note home from school last week from the school nurse informing me that our 2nd grade, Emmitt failed two vision screenings. Sure enough, our optician confirmed that our youngest will need to wear glasses! Steve has perfect vision and I did not need them until High School...now I have all three boys wearing them. I'm convinced that the evil Xbox is ruining their vision.

Here are a few pages I made when Cooper got his specs last year. Looks like I will be making a similar page for Emmitt in the very near future!

I used My Mind's Eye Lime Twist for these. I loved the colors used in this one mixed with the gray. Some thickers, Doodlebug stickers and hand journaling to complete!
