Bears Eat Beets II by Scraps of Ellay

Ellay is a big fan of The Office and the inspiration for this kit came from a line in one of the episodes---"Bears eat beets." This kit is a remake of an earlier kit by the same name. The first kit was great and this one is even greater!

Here's a preview of the kit...



While the kit has a definite camping feel to it, it also great for any outdoor and/or zoo pictures you have to scrap. Here are some layouts I've made...







You can pick up the Bears Eat Beets II kit in the Scraps of Ellay store at Stuff to Scrap and for more layout inspiration visit Ellay's Blog. You may even find that she has a freebie for you there!

Now, I'm tired from watching Lost ALL evening, so I'm going to bed. Enjoy your day!

Happy Time!

Another long week has ended and I am so happy and tired at the same time.

This morning I got to school to find that a very overgrown flower garden had been completely cleaned out. I stood there staring at the place where the plants used to be for a good three minutes trying to figure out why it looked so different. LOL! I told everyone that I hope I never have to pick a suspect out of a police lineup.

So, on the playground today one of the kids was talking about going to the doctor and getting a shot. That led to a whole conversation about doctors and the prizes they give after you've had a shot or had blood taken. I pretended to be offended and told them that I had gone to the doctor the other day and he took blood but all I got was a band aid. Without skipping a beat one boy spoke up and said, "You should have cried more." LOL!

I got the promotion certificates for the Rolos made. I took this picture befor tying a blue ribbon around them.



These were made using papers from Daydreams and Wishes & Thompson's Room by Scraps of Ellay and graphics from The Old Academy by FlowerScraps.

Rolo Certificates

I sat down to start working on the Rolo Diplomas for my class and decided to make a certificate of appreciation for the high school girls. Here's how they turned out...



I used paper and elements from the Thompson's Room and Sunshine Daydream kits by Scraps of Ellay.

Now, I've still got to make some for my class. LOL!

Speaking of my class...LOL! I showed them the necklaces I made and they loved them until they read the word "love". Then in typical kindergarten style, they started laughing, gagging and yelling "gross" and "yuck" I explained that it meant you should love your family, and your life and everything you do because if you don't you'll just be sad all the time. One little boy looked at me very skeptically and said, "Do ya think they'll get that?" LOL!
