Skate Stars

This January my daughters went skating for the first time. Man, that brought back memories! Thursdays were my school's day at Skateway...I remember waiting in the gym for the bus to take us over there...Thriller playing on an old pull-down movie screen...the song "Elvira"...doing the Hokey Pokey in the middle of the rink...

Anyway, the girls had a great time. They surprised me, though. Morgan is usually more timid and less coordinated than Viv, but the opposite held true at the rink. Morgan kinda got the hang of it, but Viv could not stay on her feet to save her life! Of course, pics went on to a scrapbook page. All papers are from the March Scrap-Tastic kit. (Love these kits).


Just a little punching, inking and layering. The large star was hand cut from chipboard and wrapped with paper. This page was completed for a challenge at SplitcoastStampers, which was to base a page on a cake from Charm City Cakes (the TV show Ace of Cakes). This was my inspiration piece. See any resemblance?! I really liked the off-set scallops and how one layer of scallops had cut out shapes. 
Hope you are having a great weekend. Thanks for looking!
