A Mid-Week Blog - Who Knew?

Last week, I took a night off and went to a friends to stamp. I haven't stamped in ages. I didn't care what we made. Turns out, we made these adorable little Mother's Day Lunch Bag Scrapbooks. I don't think they are very photo safe, but they are so cute and I'll just get some pictures printed up for it. Chantal had the book all ready for us. We just glued and stamped. It was so much fun. So, here is your scrapbook journey, starting with the cover:

Here is a sample page. I love the little penguin. His little belly is very cute!
In the section of the lunch bag that opens up, there is a slide-out page (front and back). It has a handy ribbon pull tab!

This is another very darling page:

Next fun project is the amazing birthday cake that I still don't think I can do. I did Phase I: The Baking, yesterday:

This afternoon brought on Phase II: The Frosting. I knew that I could not do the fondant covering the cake as I have never dealt with fondant before. I know that it isn't perfect and you can see the frost lines, but I'm doing the best I can. I'm sick to death about cake. I hope it comes out OK. Stay tuned for the finished product. PRESSURE!Speaking of pressure, Morgan took her AP World History test today. She is relieved to have it behind her. I hope she did well. She really prepared herself for this with many after school and Saturday study sessions.
