be better

  • The truth is we all ache. We all have growing pains and wonder if we are okay and enough and loved. The thing is we are. Really. we are enough without all the things we buy to make us much more than we are or need to be we are simple and complex and rare as is. sabrina ward harrison

i did it! i did this little mini-book all today for shimelle's free class!!:)

some of the scans are pretty bad...sorry about that. if we get some good light in here in the next couple days i'll try and take pictures. hopefully you can get the idea anyways...i'll be back later to post my art journal card for today.

Confession_1

confession #1: i rarely make my bed!!

journaling reads: i know i'm a bad example for sage...but really, i maybe make my bed 2 or 3 times a month! GASP!

Confession_2

confession #2: i have to have a diet coke everyday!

journaling reads: i have quit drinking it before...but anyone who knows me knows i'm a much happier girl when i've had my daily dose of DIET COKE!

Confession_3

confession #3: i love unique junk!

journaling reads: if you come to my house it's no secret i love junk! and i love finding new uses for old things...old shutters, windows...this bed was old and rusty...love that i was able to give it a 2nd life...$5 find!

Confession_4

confession #4: i cannot stand leftovers!

journaling reads: i know, i know...i'm a wasteful...but really there are very few leftovers i can stand to eat! most honestly make me gag! jim's mashed potatoes are actually one of the few things i can eat.

Confession_5

confession #5: i love good mail!

journaling reads: it's true...i REALLY love getting good mail! even if that means i buy something online...doesn't have to be anything big...just happy mail! and when it comes in pretty packaging = even better!

Good job, Jill! You're such an inspiration. I confess I'd love to do something like this, but likely won't.

ALL in ONE day. SO awesome!!! this is such a cool idea! your confessions are awesome! love you & your creativity

LOL, ok....I can tell you about making beds. We ONLY make our bed when we change the sheets, and sometimes not really even then, 'cept to put the top sheet and blanket back on. I loved how you took your pics!

hee...LOVE seeing all of these! your card is COOLio! love the 'i am' statement...sage is too cute, and your book is awesome!!! made me laugh all your dirty little confessions!

Cool card again! Fun that Sage likes scrapping too! And interesting confessions!!! Is Jim going to eat those leftovers? Was that one confession a hint for another package? Well, you do have a birthday coming up! Any requests?? Love you!

LOVE your book! So cute! I am now inspired to take this challenge from Shimelle's site. :)
Thanks for sharing!

Awesome card! Love that your little one scraps with you how adoreable is that. Excellent job on the 'confessions' album too :)

Fun stuff! What was the prompt for the card?

I saw your link at Emily Falconbridge's blog and thought I would check it out.

I love your card for this week! Great colors and I love the fibers. Very cool. Your daughter is a cute too! Great job on her scrapbook page!

I also did Shimelle's free class this weekend. Wasn't it fun? Your's came out awesome...I totally agree with you on left overs. I hate having them in my fridge!

Oh, this is sooooo cool!! I have to do one of these!! I've got a lot to confess and since I'm not Catholic, I can't really go to confessional, so why not scrapbook it....I have to confesss...I hide my scrapbook buys so Eric doesn't see them!! haha!!

Love your stuff! Was going to try and do Shimelle's too! I wrote my confessions but did not put it together yet! I am having a great time with Emily's though... I can get that one done!

So fun!

those are awesome!! sage's is so cute!!

i guess i'm the slacker in the group this time around- LOVE what you've done with your confessions. great pictures and love how you put it together!

love the pic of you!!

I love your card and your confessions :-)

Wow I just love your "I must confess-book"
I think I have to do one myself ;)

When I was checking all the deck-of-me blogs I also found a couple of confession-books. Hmm, I really think I also have to try that one. Love yours! And love your card too.

And it's sooo nice to have your daughter scrap with you, I have one too (one out of three that loves to scrap ain't a bad score, hahaha)who loves to get creative with me. Now THAT's quality time!

Love your confess book, Jill! And your card for Em's challenge rocks!

Your card looks fabulous! I really like the colors of the fibers and especially like the entire message of your card. Way to go!

Love your statement - that is awesome. Also gorgeous Shimelle project!

I am liking all these cool "I am" statements. I like the color mixture
you used and are those rub ons? pretty!
Your sweetie is adorable and I love your header
quote.
and your book? NICE, i must make me one too... if I can
be brave enough to tell ;)

So cute! And I can't sleep UNLESS the bed is made! LOL!

Love your card again this week! Only one diet Coke a day?? I don't dare tell you how many I have!

Cute Cute Cute!! Love this! Thanks so much for the post and comment on mine!

Great card, love the fibres.

I was tempted to do Shimelles Class too......yours looks fab.
