Book Scrapbook Layout

Created this scrapbook layout in 2007
before I had a Cricut and before I created
this blog.

Decided to embellish it with Locker Talk
bookstack for journal info.

Daughter likes to read and can read a
Harry Potter book in 1 day & comprehend
all she reads. When she went to college 1st yr
she took 1 large Rubbermaid plastic container
of pleasure reading books. This her sophomore
yr she took 2 large Rubbermaid plastic containers.
She is not interested in the Kindle or such even
though she does read alot online with her laptop.
She likes to hold a book in her hands & turn the
actual pages.

Look closely and you will see somethings about
her bedroom: Harry Potter Owl near daybed
headboard and Harry Potter blanket to the right
of her.

Challenge Me Monday #85

O Day of days when we can read!
The reader and the book,
either without the other is naught.
~Ralph Waldo Emerson~

There is nothing like getting lost in a good book. I love it when the characters become like family, and I know the book is a treasure when I feel like I’ve lost a best friend when I’ve come to the end.

This week, our challenge is all about books! Create a project that has something to do with a book. You can make a book, include a book on your project, create a bookmark, etc. There are lots of possibilities!

  3. I pretty much missed the whole Harry Potter hoopla with my kids but I did read the first one after my son read it and could see why it was so appealing. That's great she still reads a good bit.
