Scrappin'

My new hobby: scrapbookin' or so affectionalty coined "scrabbin'" by my mom. I bought a scrapbooking magazine and I feel so inspired to do so many things. However, I don't have the money to get all the stuff that will help me do all those creative things. I will just build and get stuff here and there. Surprisingly, scrapbooking is pretty relaxing to me, and I get to look at pictures that I love! Anyway...here are the only pages I have so far. Some need work, actually they all need work.

My very first page...my mom helped me with it...actually she pretty much did the whole thing for me...I have so much to learn! As you will see in my pages below:

Me and my momma. I don't really like this page...yet. I will have to think about what it needs to be BETTER, ya know?

A picture, I am sure you guys have seen before, of me and one of my students, Hannah. I am probably going to add some more to this page

I love this page! The colors and the picture...I still have some work to do on it though...

Words are My Life

I got this idea from a girl in my ward and I decided to try it out while Ale was doing the dishes last night. You just take different pictures for each day, but I just did it in one night. It is actually really fun. I would try it. Some pictures are pretty funny and you will see why Stacie! "Word are my Life" you nerd.

The Coldest Place in the Northern Hemisphere

These are kind of random shots from the last few weeks. It has been crazy busy, but lots of fun too!

Me and my old roomie, Danielle, before she left on her mission to the Cape Verde Island Mission. The islands are off the west coast of Africa. I love Danielle and being friends with her. It was fun to see her before she heads off to serve the Lord! Good luck Danielle (she is in the MTC now!)!!!

My new lipstick color, pretty color huh?

Zoomed in on my sun. I loved the sun because of the pretty yellow color it was.

An upclose look at my trees I painted

We were able to have free painting time. This is my first oil painting. I know it's kinda ugly, but it was so much fun. Below are pictures of the week before when we learned about the color wheel and how to mix colors and we learned about complimentary and primary colors. Really cool class and I plan on taking an oil painting class this summer.

The art teacher modeling how to do the color wheel, with the students gathered around listening.
