<br />
If you are offended by "adult language", they might not be for you. Some of them are pretty hilarious though.. I'm especially sent into giggle-fest by the ones with Justin Timberlake. :) You should also check out <a href="http://www.nbc.com/saturday-night-live/video/digital-short-jack-sparrow/">Jack Sparrow</a> featuring Andy as part of Turtleneck & Chain. SO FUNNY!<br />
<br />
<a href="http://www.funnyordie.com/videos/e4e2187156/andy-samberg-i-threw-it-on-the-ground">Throw if on The Ground</a> performed by Andy Samberg is another fav.... enjoy!<br />
<br />
<em><strong>Warning: The song has "adult language". </strong></em><br />

Are ya ready for this week's journal jar prompt? This week we played with <b>Use Lyrics for your Journaling</b>! Do you have a favorite song or a song that just seems to say everything you want to say? I love it when i hear a song that seems to sum up my thoughts or feelings that i haven't been able to process!<br />
<br />
Here's what our girls did with the prompt!<br />

Today is COLD and overcast-hahahah!<br />
<br />
Did you all think we forgot about Double Take Thursday??? No Way! Just took a little bitty break!<br />
<br />
So the last Double Take Thursday's prompt was<b> TOUCH</b>....any of you tackle it? I think there's so many ways to interpret this word....i first thought of capturing something with a lot of texture- showing all the nooks and cranny's and details of the object. Then, while on the computer i glanced over at one of my very few and very favorite things on my desk, a ceramic bird my son sculpted and painted. It was almost the opposite of what i had envisioned with its shiny smoothness....i adore it and I ADORE that he made it with his hands...his touch...<br />
<br />
In Lauren's words...."<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'times new roman', 'new york', times, serif; font-size: 16px;">Yes, I went obvious with the theme, but when I saw this photo I took on the last day of school, I just couldn't resist.

Where oh where does time go.....It's another Wednesday, and now it is JUNE! JUNE! Really! I feel like if i'm not careful summer is just gonna pass me by...ok not really cuz it's flipping HOT and a big reminder! hahaha!<br />
<br />
So because it's Wednesday, it's time for the Journal Jar! Our CT's knocked out some fun ones for you to oogle over today!<br />
<br />
This weeks prompt was "If I were a fairytale princess, I'd be...." sound hard? easy? fun??? I think the most interesting part of what princess you'd be is the WHY....what is it about her that you like or can relate to or want for yourself?<br />
<br />
Take a look at the different takes the girls had....<br />

shhhhhh....don't tell Lauren I'm late with The Journal Jar! I think my mind has seriously gone to mush! Anyone know of a cure?<br />
<br />
So better late than never....... This weeks prompt was "I can not leave home without..."<br />
<br />
Do you have that something that you just can't leave home without? You know that thing that you feel lost or naked without??? I think we all do....my is my iphone...sad right?!<br />
<br />
Here are some pages documenting what THEY never leave home without....<br />

<br />
I'm super excited to post my first Tattered Pear Blog post! It's Friday I hope you all have some scrapping time set aside this weekend! I'm going to talk to you today about a few different ways to use Softies #1.<br />
There are so many ways to use these, the possibilities are just endless! Here's a page I did with them<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhF6qTsmId5WW-76lzw077LlyVkKN4u3U5qA7E-Esaz1cbMKkein_szcT6WKizaDMK6FdnGJ8WZG8zsf3yjjXFU7ojO5OecYQc701-tgk6maYHPhzS4BT32DdtPFw-XsSoVBlqJBwsiMvFl/s1600/Resized-For-Web.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhF6qTsmId5WW-76lzw077LlyVkKN4u3U5qA7E-Esaz1cbMKkein_szcT6WKizaDMK6FdnGJ8WZG8zsf3yjjXFU7ojO5OecYQc701-tgk6maYHPhzS4BT32DdtPFw-XsSoVBlqJBwsiMvFl/s320/Resized-For-Web.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><br />
I have pockets on pockets here, literally. The clear page overlay is from Valorie and Lauren as well new today at The Lily Pad. I wanted to create a peek a boo page for my 2 year old because right now that is his favorite thing in the world to do!<br />
<br />
My layout here is 12x12 and the first thing I did was use a plain white paper as a base. I then added the red, brown and patterned papers and journaled. Once I had that done I decided where I wanted my photos and positioned them. Now the fun stuff-the pockets! I chose 3 pockets from the set and arranged them to my liking. I placed one (in the upper left hand corner) over my photo and added a sticker in the right hand corner (where it says "giggle"). The second and third pockets I filled with the awesome fabric that's included with them (ask Val how much I love her fabric..I am always nagging her to make more) and placed a button over the stitching on the large one in the bottom right hand corner. These pockets are actually on TOP of my page protector, so if you really wanted to get creative and make it more of a hybrid project you could use raised glue dots on them once your printed the base and store things in there. I think that's what I'm going to do with this page!<br />
<br />
These are so fun to play with..I can't wait to make another page with them! Here are a few helpful hints...<br />
<br />
Play with layers! You can add your fabrics (or several) underneath the pockets just be sure they are on a layer below the pocket you are working with. You can also tuck photos into the pocket by simply erasing the bottom part of the photo so it appears to be sticking out of the top. You can also add buttons, additional stitching, labels, stickers....you name it! We would love to see what you create!<br />
<br />
Since it's Friday and I love Friday's let's have some fun! If you create a layout with these and post back here with a link to them we will enter everyone who participates into a drawing on Tuesday to win a GC to TLP store!<br />
<br />
If you have any questions, please post away in the comment section and we will check back throughout the weekend to answer them.<br />
<br />
Have fun and Happy Scrapping!<br />

Today we're talking about <b>FOCUS</b>. I have to be honest, the rebel in me likes to take the opposite approach, of course, and embrace the blur! So often we snap away all day long, come home, upload and then find so many of our photo's are out of focus! Before you THROW THEM AWAY, take a closer look at them! Sometimes, you'll find a GEM. I'm talking something beautiful and unexpected....This happens quite a lot to me and i've just comes to terms and now LOVE when it happens! I even strive for it!<br />
<br />
Here's my photo i took of my daughter riding her horse and I just LOVE it! It's completely blurred but has such a painterly feel to it- again, completely unexpected but makes me swoon....<br />
<br />
Lauren and I think alike so often...EMBRACE THE BLUR! She captured her boys, one in focus and one, NOT. Beautiful right? So much more visually interesting.....swoon....<br />
<br />

<br />
We have a new and fun series starting today inspired by our Journaling Jumpers Hybrid Project! It's called, you guessed it, The Journal Jar<br />
<br />
<br />

<br />
The Journaling Jumpers Hybrid Project is a quick and easy way to encompass a bunch of inspiring and journal motivating prompts in a jar that looks super cute on your desk. When you need or want an idea to feed a page, you just go to the jar and pull out a prompt! It's fabulous! No more being stumped for ideas to increase your journaling! You can get and see Journaling Jumpers <a href="http://www.the-lilypad.com/store/product.php?productid=5348&cat=0&page=1">here</a>.<br />
<br />
I thought it would be fun to showcase a few LO's each Wednesday using one of the prompts from the kit!<br />
<br />
Sooooo.........this weeks prompt is <b>Scrap Your Home. </b> Easy right! We all interpreted the prompt differently which is just FABULOUS!!! Love that!<br />
<br />
So here's our takes on Scrap Your Home!<br />

Time to share our takes on the word of the week......<b>SHINE</b><br />
<b><br />
</b><br />
So again, i thought this one wouldn't be too hard... i love taking photo's INTO the sun- I feel like a rebel. I think it's funny how growing up, you were taught to NOT take photo's into the sun since that would black out everyone in front.....oh boy did they have that wrong! I get the BEST shots doing so! You DO have to play with your manual settings though! The KEY here is PLAY! When that sun comes in and does the yummy washy stuff, i just swoon....oh ya baby! So how'd you all do?<br />
<br />
Here's our take.....Lauren and her gorgeous Jessica and me and my mutt....go figure haha!<br />
<br />
