I Laid My Heart Out

Last year I went in and did some scrapping with Megan’s Grade 5/6 class
All the kids made a book to showcase work from the year
I only had the chance to go in once but the kids continued on their books
and they turned up fabulous
This year I am going back
to scrap with all the Grade 6’s
and I hope to do a little more with them this year than last.
This is my book from last year

the one and only page I completed last year

and my new page, made today, eagerly ready for tomorrow

and this year I hope to fill my book
the very cool steampunk figure is from Inka, at Altered Artifacts
Hoping to get more mixed media work down this year and I think this book will be a step in the right direction
Not to mention I just love watching the kids be inspired and the creative world it opens.

Fun. I like the idea of covering the journal with a paper sack. I have been using a manila folder which is very sturdy for the in and out of the desk.

Oh Sharmaine this is wonderful. I love it. I have a package all ready to go to Tasmania with something very special inside, something you love. I am just waiting to pay my bills this month and then off it goes. So glad you are on the DT!!
