As of the measurement on the wall yesterday, Jacob is now officially taller than me. I was thinking that he had probably passed me so I measured him last night and was shocked to see that he has grown almost 3/4" since Nov. 19th when he reached 5'6" (my height.) It won't be long before he is literally looking down on top of my head {and probably pointing out all the gray hairs}...and he is only 13!!!
I have been playing with a couple of challenges the last couple of days. This first card is based upon Amber's Unity sketch that she posts on Mondays. I just got in this kit, Spunky Princess and was dying to get it inky...it inks up so cute!
Supplies used:
*Unity Stamp Co. Spunky Princess
*Rhonna Farrer papers
*glitter
*ribbon
*brads
*glue pen
*watercolor pencils
The other challenge that I worked on yesterday was Tanis' Holiday Extravaganza challenge from Splitcoast. These are called scraplings and they measure 1 1/4" x 4 1/4". Aren't they the cutest little things? Perfect for bookmarks or a quick little thinking of you card to slide into someone's shoe or lunchbox. I think that you will probably be seeing more of these from me in the future.
Supplies used:
*Unity Stamp Co. Bitty Christmas Tags
*K&Company Christmas papers and stickers
*Martha Stewart border punches
*glue pen
*glitter
*pop-dots
*watercolor pencils
*Bazzill Kraft

Oh that Jacob! My grandson who is 14 shot up this year too. Now taller that me and his Mom.
Love all your art today.
Thanks for sharing.
I'd believe it. I was actually typing a response to your last post this morning when I lost the dsl connection. Congrats to him on the school honor as well.
Love your scraplings!! and left you love for the card on SCS...isn't it crazy how fast they grow!!
Your card is lovely and the scraplings are too cute!
Wow -- Jacob is taller than you! Scares the heck out of me because Ryan is 9 and already quite close to being my height (I'm only 5'4" though). They grow entirely too fast!
If I don't make it back before Thursday -- Merry Christmas to you and your family! ((hugs))
