I had bought a new stamp the other day but was really to busy to try it out right away. So I tossed it onto my Desk and sorta forgot about it. Shortly afterward I was sorting thru photos to use with some of the page kits I recieved for IT. I came across some photos I had taken at a Build-A-Bear Party for Raye's best friend. The colors in the photos were a perfect fit for one of the page kits. I had been dying to scrap these photos for a while so the layout came together pretty easy. Except I kept coming up with a "blank" space on the page. Just as I was about to give up,, I spotted my new stamp. I felt the dragon on the stamp matched the Hippo Raye made at Build-A-Bear, so I started to stamp and color and voila! It all came together and my new stamp was a perfect fit .

opps I think we killed her!

One of the 8 rinks we built

Raye helping out

Ok so I have not posted in a while, but I do have a good reason. ( it is also my reason for not calling friends or family). Abbout 4 months ago 4 of us were asked to put toghether a pond hockey tourny. So we said yes. Hmmmmmmm, hindsight says "not so smart". We had to build 8 rinks (140 X 80) on the lake. this consited of 8 men 2 children and myself. After sevral cups of tim's and a cold afternoon we got it done. We planed built and put together a tourny that brought 18 teams to Alix to play on the lake for the day. We estimated having over 1500 hundred people on the ice at any given time. Everyone enjoyed the dat and we are still recieving many thanks and praise for a job well done. We have also recieved many emails to say " thanks we enjoyed the day and hope to do it again". So now I plan to get back to Scrapbooking, and hopefully posting on time.
