While the grand kiddies were here visiting they made a spread in their Smash books. But I wanted to give them a memory page for the actual time. Of course, I had too many photos so I had to add a flap.
Some photos were printed for all three books and darn it, one printed in a big size. awk! All that ink! So I incorporated it into the flap. :}
I tried to keep the flavour of their art canvas in their own spread. I had thought Josh's would present some difficulty but the advantage of doing three is that the ideas also multiply! ;^)
Eliana is all about bold colours and super heroes. (faeries) I found a dream quote to match the word on her canvas. :) I hope that by occasionally adding my own spread to theirs, it will inspire them to explore creative options.
I worked on Jolina's first and it was perhaps easiest. I should have used more yellow, her favourite colour. Apparently she 'sleeps' with last year's smash book. :)
But they took a whole day and now there is clean up. I did a quick skim through this library book and I really must learn to put things away. The key apparently is for everything to have its designated spot. Now that particular challenge is to find a home spot for everything first. :/
Next week I hope to be back to my own journal challenges. But now to wrap up the rest of the week! ;^)

These are priceless treasures that will serve them well. Creativity at its finest. Love that you let them be creative and that you also add a touch here and there. Best Gramma Ever!
I'm still stuck on "she sleeps with her book". Awwww...now that's wonderful.
