This is the last of my LOs from the weekend. These photos are from my son's 100th football match on Sunday. Every time there is a milestone game, the parents organise a banner for their kid to run through, just like they do in the AFL every week. A few years ago for my son's 50th game, which was the same day as two other boys, we three mums made the banner. This time I didn't find out until Tuesday night, and I didn't have enough time to make it myself, so we had to pay to get one made. I used the 'Birthday Wishes - Boy' kit. The star clusters are by Katie Pertiet and the banner is from 'Banner It Pro' by Wendyzine Scraps.  Points: 1 for the LO, 1 for sharing, #1 Rectangles, #2 Squares, #7 Be a sport, #11 brand new photo, #14 Patterned papers (9), #15 Solid cardstock (1), #16 Digital die cut, #18 Texture, #27 Double points (55) #29 Circles, #30 Stars, #32 Birthstone, #33 Journal on a path/shape, #43 Milestone Marker, #44 Stash Busting (8), #48 Collection Use (3), #49 Keep it current, #50 Create your own, #51 Unused product, #61 Designer love (12), #62 Twine, #63 Dots (2), #68 Stitches, #75 Digital Love, #78 Ribbon TOTAL points = 110 |

You gals have been SMOKIN'! Starting to get caught up. Starting my comments on page FIVE... craftymom101 your ferryboat page turned out fabulous!!! Your little guy looks SOOO cute in those photos! Is he yawning in that photo? The red stripes and matting is very dramatic, and I love how the balloon and the title tone in with each other (even though I see from the journaling that the balloon in the photo was actually green). You do such a good job with the little clusters. |

Catching up on page SIX: ((((HUGS))))), teacherlisa, about your back story. Loving how you are continually getting those feelings out and into your albums. Hope it helps. And you have learned a lot about what NOT to do, so your journey is in the right direction. Congrats on letting go. Love that you included a pic of your boys. Focus on the plus side, right? Your TN(?) is a great way to continue to do that! Super way to celebrate the good stuff! gramma, every one of those pages is a feast for the eyes! Love all the bold colours and fun diecuts! The little one whose book this is will be smiling every time the book is opened. Will take a closer look at your cards on Flickr. |

You do such a good job with the little clusters. Thank you so much! Yes, he’s yawning.  We were heading back to the hotel after a very long day at Disney and he was exhausted! It was too cute not to include. His balloon is more teal than green but he wanted a green balloon so I told him the color was green. I don’t think they had a true green balloon? It’s been 8 years since that trip so it’s hard to remember! |

The last 2 days I've been making copies of all the "tween spirit" cards I made earlier in the month. I had half of the paper pad and one more sticker sheet to use so I figured I'd just go ahead and copy what I'd already done since they seemed to be well received. I was able to make really close copies of 9 of them. I saved the sticker paper from my first sheet so I could lay that over the sticker collages I'd made last time and layer them up the same and then lift them up and put them on my background without so many headaches. Yay! There were a few that I either didn't have quite the same scraps for, or didn't love so much, so I ended up making new versions this time. Sorry the light wasn't great for these shots and the ones on the right haven't been stuck to their card bases yet - I'm going to stamp sentiments inside first. The original is on the left, the new version on the right:  Echo Park teen spirit cards by jo.blackford, on Flickr  Echo Park teen spirit cards by jo.blackford, on Flickr I have a few scraps of paper and some rather scrapbooky stickers leftover which I might be able to squeeze one more card out of. I think I will RAK the word strip stickers to someone here - they're much more appropriate to a teenager selfie layout than anything I might make. http://instagram.com/p/B0Wf3wlA1e5 |

This is my LO for the Sketchy Saturday July 20 challenge. I work from home one day per week, and the journaling on this LO is about how I feel a bit like a SAHM being able to bake cookies for my son for when he gets home for school. (I was never a SAHM - DSO was a SAHD until DS started school - so this is the closest I'll ever get haha!) I realise that the red white and blue don't really match the milk and cookies theme, but I took the colours from his school sports uniform. I used the 'Blue Skies' kit by Katie Pertiet, and I made the milk & cookies title sticker.  Points: 1 for the LO, 1 for sharing, #1 Rectangles, #2 Squares, #14 Patterned papers (3), #15 Solid cardstock (3), #16 Digital die cut, #21 Food, #23 Red White Blue (4), #32 Birthstone, #33 Journal on a path/shape, #40 Get Sketchy, #44 Stash Busting (4), #45 Mixed Media, #48 Collection Use (3), #49 Keep it current, #50 Create your own, #61 Designer love (8), #75 Digital Love, TOTAL = 38 points |

Looking up from his work and seeing your smiling face, plus the furry family members will bring a grin to his face, guaranteed! , I wrote almost the exact same thing as grammadee, but apparently didn't hit create post, because it is not here. Just know that I felt the same way. How sweet of your DH to request your layout. He's a keeper! |

I definitely feel like I’m in a rhythm right now. Do you ever keep adding products to a page and just hope it’s not too much? That was this layout! I finally called it done and put it away or I would have continued to add little bits and pieces to the clusters! |

We were heading back to the hotel after a very long day at Disney and he was exhausted! It was too cute not to include. His balloon is more teal than green but he wanted a green balloon so I told him the color was green. I don’t think they had a true green balloon? It’s been 8 years since that trip so it’s hard to remember!
