Product of the Week for 10/8 for Cooordinates Collections



How many of us really collect trinkets or newspapers clippings? I know I do. I actually found alot of them while organzing my scraproom. I had so many little things that I kept to remember my years in Jr. and Sr. High School...not to mention my years in College.

So, I decided to use the 7 Gyspies Naked Pizza Box to create a little memory box to keep my dear items. I really liked how it turned out. I used the 7 Gyspies Zanzibar papers that I got over at CoordinatesCollections to cover the pizza box. I decided to dig out some pictures...some from each generation. I was thrilled with the way it turned out!

Ry's proud moment...

Preparing for the first day of Bow-Hunting usually starts a month before the October 1st opening day. Last year was Ry's first season Bow-Hunting. He did fairly well. He shot a small 6pt. buck. Something he and Roger were very proud of.

This year, Ry was able to do some shooting at an indoor range along with shooting the target outside. I think it did him some good...alot of good. On Thursday, October 4, Rog and Ry came home after hunting saying they needed to get the flashlights and to call Uncle Will to track the buck. In our family, this is pure excitment during the hunting season. About an hour later, they returned with this:




Rog was so proud for Ry. He even cleaned his barn up so that when friends and family came over to see Ry's buck they would have a place to walk. I have to laugh because when you show a picture of the buck to other hunters, they are awed. It isn't an everyday thing when you can get a buck like this.

POW for 10/1 Creative Imaginations Patsy and Chris gift boxes...

I have a bug. I don't know what type but I know it has me down. I was telling a friend and she told me that she had the same thing and a Doctor told her it was from a bug that is found on salad. Makes you wonder about eating salad again, doesn't it? I was down yesterday and down for most of the day today but I am starting to feel better. So, I spent most of my day in my scraproom listening to Family Life Radio and working on my POW's that were DUE TODAY!!! Thankfully, I was able to finish them. Phew...

Chris Boxes:



I love these! I decided I would create little "treat" boxes for a friend. After 3 weeks of making projects, I think I am getting use to making other paper projects other than layouts. I have one more project to make before I start another new task over at CC.
