I’ve completed the next 2 colors in my long term swap. 
I love that I get to use up scraps and the little bits and bobbles I’ve collected over time. It’s really stretching me creatively too…coming up with so many unique designs.
I haven’t decided which one of each color I’ll be keeping yet.
Any opinions?
What did you do today to be a little greener?
Unfortunately, I had to drive the kids to school in 2 different directions. That will be ending very soon…thank goodness. It’s just so frustrating but at least it’s just 2 days a week. I also combine all my errands with these days so I’m not out there driving past the place I’ll need to stop tomorrow. This also saves wear and tear on the vehicle…hubby is an Auto Tech…he preaches this point to me regularly. (love you honey)
I did bring my tote bags to the grocery store to carry home my goods.
On Friday or Saturday we’ll be getting our 1/4 of beef. Buying local…less packaging…less expensive…it’s all good. Plus, I love having all those butcher wrapped packages in the freezer just waiting for me to cook. Last year we got a side of beef…that was TOO MUCH! We still have some roasts and ground beef.

I had decided I wasn’t going to sign up for anymore swaps that I had to make multiples of the exact same page again..at least for quite some time. My friend Theresa came up a long term swap that will eventually end up with a rainbow of colors. I was still reluctant to join until she said it was okay for each of the pages to be different.
I will keep 1 square from each set and the others will be part of the 5 for5 swap. In the end I’ll have 6 pages of each color. It will be a very chunky book.
From the purple set I’ll be keeping the page with the flowers and my name pin on it.
I’m torn with the blue pages…I’d like to keep 3 of them. I’ve got time before sending them to mull it over.
Which blue page is your favorite?
