My Sensory Seeker

My youngest daughter Gracie is a handful.  I have known it forever.  She was not an easy baby, or toddler.  Now I know why.  She has a sensory integration disorder.  She is what they like to call a "sensory seeker."  She craves messes, heights, spinning, etc.  She has a hard time sitting still and likes to flip upside down.  Many people think she a daredevil or a troublemaker or maybe a disruptive little child.  And maybe partly she is, but what we now know is that she can't really help it.  Her brain is wired in a different way.  We are going to be working we a resource teacher and an OT to help make her life a little easier. 

As a scrapbooker I like to work though my emotions on a page.  So here is the page I made about all of this.  I wanted to use pictures that really show a side of her and I wanted a lot of room to journal. So it is a two-pager.



I used the yummy Valentine's paper from We R Memory Keepers.

So there you have it.

the nutcracker- sketchy thursdays

Here is a picture of my girls with the sugar plum fairy from the nutcracker.  I used Fancy Pants and a Sketchy Thursday's sketch.


And if you haven't heard this is the last sketch of sketchy's thursday's blog.  Makes me very sad.

School Pictures- creative scrappers

I have been in a scrappy mood this week, so  I am back with another one.  Gracie's school pictures came home the other day and they are just to wonderful not to scrap. 

I used Creative Scrappers sketch 182 for this page.  I also did a challenge at ACOT - to use a die cut page (have had that pink die cut FOREVER and I am so glad that I finally used it), chipboard title, and a new scrappy supply- the punch.

My Creative Sketches- and two more

Hello again.  I am back with one new one and two I did a few weeks ago, but never shared.  The first one is from the sketch at My Creative Sketches.  They are - I think- affliated with My Creative Scrapbook which is a kit club I have been recieveing for the past year.  I used their November kit (lots of Bo Bunny goodness in it.)


Next I used Little Yellow Bicycle.  This was for the crop last month at ACOT and I scraplifted someone for it.

And lastly, is I do believe also from My Creative Scrapbook- the October kit.  But I could be wrong.  I used Crate Paper.
