Have I mentioned that my daughter is now pretty much over anything related to the craftroom? Which is funny because when she has friends over, that's the first place they want to go, so she usually steers them elsewhere. Basically she doesn't like that I spend time in there. Because me being in there means I'm either creating or practicing Zumba... both of which means she's not getting 100% of my attention.
So sorry, but I do have a life outside of motherhood. Granted it's not a totally exciting life, but it works for me.
So yesterday's conversation with her in the craftroom reminded me just how much time she's spent in here with me & how much she knows about this crafting industry...
Bryn: "If you get this page published, you're going to have to get permission from Abby's mom, you know."
Me: "Yes I know, but it's not going to be published."
Bryn: "Why?"
Me: "Because I'm not submitting it. I just made it for the scrapbook."
Next day...
Bryn: "You know... you really should submit this page for publication."
Me: "Why? Do you like it or something?"
Bryn: "Yes, it's really cute."
Or is it that she thinks she looks cute & wants to be in a magazine (again!)?
Crack me up!
Anywayyyyy.... despite her strong suggestion... I have no plans to submit this. LOL And I had some crazy non-matching colors to work with in these photos... pink & orange don't really go together... but I tried to anchor it all with grey & keep it simple.
A few SRM Stickers on here... including the new Sticker Stitches, which are way fun to use.
Okie dokie then. It's almost time to go teach my 2nd Zumba class of the day! Then I'm coming back home to eat dinner & eat some of Bob's birthday cake since today is his birthday. Then I'm off to bed early so I can get up & teach the 5:30am class tomorrow morning.
Gonna sit on my butt in the craftroom & do absolutely nothing after that for the rest of the day tomorrow!
Calgon... take me away...
Happy Birthday, Bob!
Cute page--love how you used the grey to make the colors work.
You are awesome. :)

Be stubborn, why not, don't submit it!! geesh!! I tell you that you should follow the lead of Bryn!!! Do as you are told, lol, though... given that she steers people away from your craft room... i dunno, she needs to work on that one, lol.

Busy girl! I think it's adorable she's urging you to submit, whether it's for her own benefit or not :) I hope Bob had a wonderful Birthday!
