It's hard to believe that summer is over and the kids are going back to school soon. I love my kids to death but it would be nice to have some peace and quiet for a few hours a day, for a change.
This summer was pretty hectic with my kids having their own back-to-back activities -- swimming, soccer, gymnastics, ballet, taekwando, tennis and little gym. You can just imagine how many pictures I have in my hard drive that still need to see the light of day.
June is also a time for reflection. A time to take stock of what you have accomplished so far and what else needs to be done for the rest of the year. Are you meeting your scrapping goals at all?
In this issue, we help you deal with the last few days of the kids at home with a fun Bag Tag project for them to make themselves. To add excitement to your back to school shopping, we went to our favorite bookstore to see what they have for us scrappers.
Father's Day is just around the corner...do you already have something for the man in your life? If not, try altering a chopping board for a quick and easy gift that's sure to earn you some major points!
Of course, this issue will not be complete without highlights from the recently concluded Scrapfest 2007.
All these and more articles in our Back-to-School and Father's Day issue. We hope you enjoy this issue as much as we did in making it.
Please post your comments/suggestions for improvement in the respective columns. The best comment will receive a Cherry Arte prize pack.
