I love how this page turned out. I did palette paint to make the background. Then I added the rub on jar (Hambly) and the rub on bats (Basic Grey). I cut the skeleton out of some Halloween paper I got from J's. The grey word stickers are Heidi Swapp. The letter stickers are BG. I added stamping and some more paint and some journaling.
This week I met my new mom's group I've joined. I'm so happy I finally got off my tush to join one. Leo will be so much happier and I'm much happier meeting other great moms in the area. I miss having friends and chatting up with them.
My giving days have been still happening, but not put as a priority of the day. Which is not cool. I have still made sure to give everyday. I'm on day 9 now.
Some of the things I've gave in the last few days...
1. All my change I had to the guy I brought coffee from in the mail in his tip jar. It wasn't much, but usually I don't tip at all for something like that.
2. I watched Food Inc.. this was giving in the sense of giving myself a better education about how our food system works. This movie has changed how I want to eat and buy food. (warning it will totally make you nauseous)
3. Took Leo to the park after I went to the gym just because I knew he would enjoy it. This is not something I would typically do. Usually we just go back to the house and have lunch. I don't like going to parks by myself and Leo. I like someone to talk to. I bucked up for him. We had a good time.
4. Mailed out my copy of 29 gifts to a friend who I knew would appreciate the book and liked hearing about what I was doing.
5. Took Leo today to a playgroup on a Saturday because I knew he'd like it and I knew Lewis would love a few hours to himself to do whatever he wanted with out Leo distraction or Gina distraction. :)
There's a new card challenge at jinglebelles. Going to work on this tomorrow and I have a new Tim tag to show off soon!
Thanks for stopping by!

very cool journal, Gina! love the background. wow! so proud of what you are doing about the giving!
Awesome page!
I love this list of your "gives". I think they're all lovely AND I think it's good to be more aware of giving and just what you might be giving to people every day and not realizing, as well as what you could be giving too. Love it.
And yep, Food Inc. will pretty much ruin you on food for awhile, lol! At least, the typical american food! I remember when I watched Super Size Me, I wanted to barf every time we drove by a McDonalds!! Yucky.
