CTMH-- Back to School Journal

It's officially "Back to School" time around here!  I've been back for almost 2 weeks already, 4 days of teacher training and a full week of school with students.  Its always tiring the first few days back, mostly the waking up early, getting everyone's things ready in the morning and being busy for hours on end.  I think I'm in the swing of things now though!  Enough to even do some crafting this weekend!!!

Back to School is a wonderful time of year for parents- as the kids go back!  Its also an expensive time of year too with school supplies and new clothes.  Kids are excited too! (Until they reach middle school- where they look like they're still on vacation for the first couple months!)



I've created a couple of these super cute "School Rocks" Journals.  I used the retired paper pack "Denim Days".  I love the blue jean paper in this kit and the pencils are so real looking.  This altered journal is also listed in my Etsy store too ;)

Check out the Heart 2 Heart Challenge blog!  This week's challenge is back to school!
