I spent a good part of the weekend playing with my kits. Yesterday and today I worked on my SEI mother book from the project kit.

Binding it all together with my bind it all and I love how easy the pages...

This morning before leaving for work I couldn't find the dog?  After walking in and out of a couple rooms I found him alright... he and the cat?
