Autograph books

[bertalander]

Well, we're not packed... but dh is getting us there, bit by bit.

I, of course, felt the need to be crafty. So for my three and their cousins I made these simple 4x5 autograph books. I still need to add their names in alphabet beads by the polka dot ribbon. I figured moms could jazz up the fronts some if they want when they get them home.

Hope they like them!

I can't believe we leave for Florida on FRIDAY!

Those are adorable! If you want to decorate the covers you can find lots of great Disney stickers in the scrapbooking aisle of stores like Michael's and A.C. Moore.

I did something similar for my kids on our last sailing. Using spiral-bound packs of 3x5 lined index cards, I made them notebooks with personalized covers. They could use them for writing down things they didn't want to forget about the trip or for getting the names/addresses of friends they made on board.

Have a great cruise!

Yes! Those were the stickers I was thinking of for the front. I'd seen them at Hobby Lobby and Michaels but I knew they would get beat the heck and gone over the week. So I figured the moms could do that instead! (Plus I keep getting stuff for six kids instead of my three and it's getting $$$$!)

We got Pirate journals at the Dollar Store for my guys to journal in daily. I LOVE the journal idea. Can't wait to see how they turn out. I'm giving them sticky notes to mare where they want to include any scrapbook stuff or pictures.

Yes, I'm trying to make my kids scrap with me.

I did that with my DD. She will be 8 on Friday and she is already dipping into my stuff. I guess she figures my supplies are her supplies. Sometimes mommy doesn't like to share!!
