2d time around Tuesday,

It is time for 2nd Time Around Tuesday, hosted by Diane @ A Picture is Worth a Thousand Words. be sure to drop by Daine's blog and check out the other 2d time around items.........
I'm finally getting around to posting again on 2d time around.....I wanted to show you the new (old) notebook I painted for my Granddaughter Rissa. This was painted in Aug '08 and she has used it for 1 1/2 yrs. I'm sure she'll need a new one soon. She loves the special ones you can buy for 12.00 to 20.00, but her Mom said sorry no dice, we can't afford those expensive things...Keifer her older brother had 4 solid black ones that

he used in school that was in very good condition..and he only paid $1.00 each at Dirt Cheap....so everyone's head turned to Granny...ok, I know what that means...paint....so I painted her one and I thought it was so cute, I knew better than to pick a pattern without asking her...

She was a very grown up 7 year old and so very choosy about what she had on her notebook and she considered Ginger Girls, toooo babyish....so I let her pick out the picture she wanted. She couldn't pick out something simple and cartoonie (is that even a word) lol......oh no, she had to have real life....here is what she picked out and we made some old note books, new again...the 2d time around.

hope you liked my 2d time around project....
