Try It Tuesday~scrapbooking a mistake!



Hi everyone~time for Try It Tuesday!!. How about scrapbooking a "mistake":):)  That is always fun. These are my granddaughter's birthday invite cards~my daughter-in-law added a year by mistake.  Andrea told her, I'm eight not nine, mom!!!  In the trash they went but I got one before they went in.  She re-ordered with the correct age but I thought what a cute scrapbook page the mistake would make.  I used some Sassafras Lass, 7gypsies and The Paper Studio.
 
We all had a good laugh over this and now we will always remember when an extra year was added to Andrea's birthday cards!!
 
A cool piece that my dad made to put on the back of the choir chairs at his church.  He designed and hand crafted this. Mom gave my sister and I each one.  I put projects that I'm working on in mine.  Keeps my desk clutter free!!!   Hope you have a great day and I'll see ya soon!!!
