Contemplate

Having a 12 year old middle schooler is sometimes very very challenging.  I can't begin to start on how challenging these 12 year olds are but I just wish that sometimes that she will just slow down and think over or contemplate on her choices.  Right now,  decisions are rushed and poorly made without even thinking.  Sigh...  I hope that she grows wiser in time and take the time to think and contemplate.

I remember back in the times when I was in university,  a very wise professor said this to me, "When you have to make a decision,  always think it through. The thinking process should be akin to water boiling - the rolling of the bubbles being your thoughts."  

I have dug into my old stash and uncovered some very old treasures:  Some KI lace cardstock,  Heather Bailey pp - (they are so beautiful!) and some old Prima Felt (which looked great here).  Feels good to finally use up more of my older cs and pps.







Materials used:
Heather Bailey pps,  Bazzill cs,  Ki Memories Pink Lace cs,  Prima Felt Mat,  Thickers alphas,  Cosmo Cricket Sticker Alphas (Thanks Aida for buying them),  EK Success Punch,  Martha Stewart Punch and 3d pop up foam.
