I would like to introduce you to one of the newest design team members for my Stamp Box.....
Her name is Ellen Sosnsoki, and here is a little bit about her....

Hi Everyone! I am Ellen Sosnsoki. I live in a small town in Northeast Pennsylvania called Paxinos with my family. I have two boys, a husband and two dogs with whom I share my days and nights. Besides scrapping and hanging out with my family & friends, I am utilizing my Master’s Degree and working PT as a mobile therapist for children with behavioral issues and a PT as an instructor at a local business college. I draw inspiration from color and texture and life around me. When I have a stressful day at work, I love to come home and create!

For week 12, the challenge is BACK TO SCHOOL.
Here is the layout I made for it..I used a picture of ds on his first day of Grade one

New years 08-09

Using the September kit at www.crazydaisykits.com I made a layout about the very low key New Years that I spent with ds. I loved the owl that was on the cute little card included in the kit, so I cut the owl out to use it on the layout. I stapled each wing(just for looks) and adhered to my page using a pop dot.

Another layout
