So, I've been in a complete crafting mood lately. I've been secretly stashing chipboard, cute mini file guides, and binder clips. So what am I going to do with all of these things? I don't know yet, but my creative urges are going strong. So strong that I decided to buy a Summer Book from Elise Joy (esty shop) to document this summer. I'm already planning on putting some photos and letters that I received from my students, as this is how I like to start my summer (closing out the school year and giving students a fond farewell). I will also add photos and things from the fair. I can't wait to get started. You can read and watch videos about Elise's progress on her book here. It is so very inspirational. I could have easily put my own book together because I do have tons of paper, but I didn't have that cute cover stamp but most of all, it would never get done. This way, I will be more likely to actually finish it. I'll even keep you posted on my progress over the summer, just for accountability purposes.
See you all next week!
Can't wait to see what you do with the book!
ReplyDeleteI've never tried a fried Twinkie before, but I did try chocolate covered bacon at our county fair last summer. What is a fair without trying some sort of fried food that we're not supposed to eat, ha ha!
ReplyDeleteI saw that Elise Blaha summer book on her blog and have been following and watching her videos. I didn't even know she lived in San Diego until recently. I'm also doing a summer mini book but I bought the Savoring Summer project kit from Elle's Studio. It came this week and I still need to cut and put it together. I think the key to getting it done is to have the book put together first and just add photos/embellies/journaling! I can't wait to see your mini book updates!
