8th grade dance and Anessa's project.

Hi Stampers!


Today I have a couple pictures of my very fast growing up 8th grader! Last night marked her 8th grade dance and WOW...does she clean up nice! Our friend, Tami, came over to do her hair. I absolutely dont have the patience for all those curls in the back. I know you cant see them, but trust me, they are there! I dont think I was looking forward to the day that my baby went to "prom", but this is the beginning of things to come. Ahh...isn't she beautiful!!

Here she is with her BFF Amanda. Amanda moved her in 4th grade, and they've been nearly inseperable since then. At times, Amanda has practically lived with us...but thats ok, she's a great girl as well.

Speaking of Amanda, here is a covered notebook that Anessa made for her. She used the Always DSP to cover it. I made Anessa one a while back, and she enjoys it so much she wanted one for Amanda. Now let me tell you, covering the notebook was easy, but do you notice the glitter? Dont try this at home folks! I didn't have any A's in the sticky cut letters, so I took a piece of chipboard and covered it with sticky strip. THAT is the easy part. The hard part is trimming it to make it fit the size of the letter. Oh my! It's not for the faint of heart...LOL. I did the same thing for the scallop, but it's size made it much easier to trim down. Anyhow, after getting them covered with sticky strip, she covered them with the chunky glitter. Whalaa. Not terribly difficult, (except the sticky strip part) and Amanda loved it! Mission Accomplished!

Thanks for checkin in today. Now go Stamp Something!
