Organize your Stuff: Week 8 (round 4): Projects, Pages, and Kits part 2

It has been a busy week here at the shoe. (For those of you who are not regular readers, it is our family of 5, our cat, Fabulous Spouse’s SIL (whose husband is IA to Iraq), her two little ones, her 2 cats and her dog…therefore our home has become that of nursery rhymes “there was an old lady who lived in a shoe…”) However, we did manage to get two layouts done from when Fabulous Spouse went to Iraq during the surge in 2007 in honor of the Operation Write Home blog hop tomorrow morning. (PS- thanks for scrolling down if you are reading this after the hop has begun!).

Speaking of Kits, here Creative Me used the Destinations kit from Simple Stories that was purchased by the Inner Hoarder at CKC Portland in March… this is currently my current new favorite paper manufacturer!

The POW has been instructed by Creative Me that layout #2 is not perfect yet, but OCD Me wanted it published anyways, so that we could show that we are making progress (the rest of this album… so far… can be viewed here in my Facebook album).

Here is some blog candy with which the POW has convinced the Inner Hoarder to part.

We have three prizes. One for those who are followers and comment to this post, one for comments to followers who post to the blog hop post, and one for the comments of followers posted on June 1st. There will be more than the 4x6 journaling elements page, one of the three playing card strips, and ribbon in each…but we are not sure what. We work at a scrapbook store all this weekend, and SOMETHING will speak to Creative Me, we are sure of it! Since Oldest Child was my random generator for the last blog hop (and truly, is there anything more random than a boy in middle school?). Girl Friday, Illusive Middle Child, and Shark Bait a.k.a. The Toddler will pick the winners this time around.
