Hey Stephanie, you should meet my daughter. You and her would get along real good hehehe I don't think her laundry ever gets folded... hey Janet.. do you ever fold your laundry?

*blink* *blink* *blink* Fold laundry? That's right up there with ironing socks! We do this quaint little thing called "Basket Diving". If you are looking for laundry that isn't in your drawers....dive into a basket and find it!

:-)


My house is rarely clean, and does opening a package count as 'cooking'? :-) Just kidding. I do cook a lot of our meals...but not always. I think Stephanie and I might be bossom buddies here!

Yeah I thought you had given that up about the time Daniel was born... you know about the time Isaac started falling asleep in the baskets of laundry LOL

Or wait, was that Dockers???? No, I was right, it was both of them and I have the pictures to prove it

HAHAHA Isn't that the truth!!! I would reach into the basket to fold laundry and I would uncover a cat or a child....or both! Snuggled up together in the basket. I _should_ have taken a picture of it...but all I could ever see was my laundry getting dirty again....

I love all this black and white!!!

Stephanie that is a great me page, I love it.

What Janet you mean everyone doesn't iron their socks

Kelly, I just cut a cardstock circle (and it wasn't even a good circle) and then cut strips of paper and I trimmed the edges with deco shears and then just started gently folding and working around the circle. THen I cut circles of netting and sewed them together at the end, trimmed the ends and glued the netting down on top of the music flowers. Added white flowers on top.

So... just to clarify. you have a cardstock circle... where do the strips of paper fit into this? what all did you trim wiht the deco shears (I might still have a pair!)...

Just trying to picture it in my mind.

Stephanie. I haven't yet done an "about me" layout... maybe I should someday.

p.s. I don't iron. My dh told me ONCE over 25 years ago that I didn't do it well enough so I handed the infernal thing over to him and haven't touched it since! well.. just to sew but that's different...

That's a beautiful lo, Stephanie!

Thanks ladies for all the wonderful comments! I'm glad I'm not the only one that does basket diving at their house - LOL! Our dryer serves as our iron unless it's something really nice. I can't remember the last time I had to clean off my ironing board

Thanks again!

Here is my black and white! I find there are so many colors of white ,never seem to be the same hues! An old b&w of my sister and me.

I really like all the b&w LOs that are posted-all are so nicely laid out. Gorgeous all of you!

Awe Pat that is so pretty, those white hills really do look like snow!!!

really nice, Pat!

My black & white, I made my journal box subsitute as a tag??

ooo.. that's very striking! I love it!

You ladies have inspired me to step out of my comfort zone to do a B&W lo! I never dreamed they could look so nice!
