Darling album - she is going to LOVE This album!! great work Wendy
My post seems to have disappeared? I love this album. The glimmer mists using the same shape that is on the page for a mask is genius! My favorite memory of school is probably our 5th grade field trip to Boston, we stayed for 2 days, it was like one big slumber party!

Wendy - this is great! I love mini albums and this is awesome! I think my best school memories were cheering in high school - it was just lots of fun!

love your mini album!!! My most memorable school memory...my aunt was a 1st grade teacher at my elementary school, and one day while walking in from recess I whipped my winter hat (snoopy with a big pompom)up in the air and yelled "yahoo"...JUST as I walked past my aunt's classroom. She came right out and scolded me, calling my by my FULL NAME- yup, middle name included. That was the disadvantage of having your aunt at your school!
What a sweet album! My best school memory was when my 2nd grade teacher got married and the whole class was invited to the wedding! We felt so grown up!
school memory?.... first kiss in school parking lot!
I love your mini album! Thanks for the inspiration. Some of my best school memories were riding the bus and walking in the snow!

I love the albums. What a wonderful gift for a friend. My memory is when I lost my tooth on the playground in Kindergarten. I couldn't find it, but the toothfairy still came.

Beautiful!! I love how it's totally WENDY...but with the kit elements. Well done!
WOW! what fun!

I love your mini album!!! My most memorable school memory was I was in 12th grade and our basketball team won the State Championship...

Wendy. Wow! You are the master of mini books. I loved everything about it.
Great Job!

Your mini book is really cute! My most memorable school memory isn't of a specific moment. The moments I seem to remember most is the moments I met a few of my friends. I met my hubby in the 7th grade, science class, he was new to the school, I thought he was a dork but he fell in love at first sight (so he says). lol
second time around is so much better, loving all the projects. Thanks Another great meory would be my HS Prom!! OMG!! Had soo much fun!!!!
What a great friend...I'm sure she will love the mini. Wendy your mini's are always awesome and they do so inspire me...as your blog states. Thanks so much for sharing. hugs....:)
oops did not post my name, My HS prom was the Bomb!!!thansk

Your inked tags are to die for! That's one lucky friend you've got there, fab album!! I have mostly all good memories from school, but one of my best was finally getting the lead in my HS musical as a senior! :)
you rocked out to the simple stories!
my favorite school days memory was the school bus (yes a short bus) had to turn around in my drive way and ran over our trash cans on a weekly basis. i guess thats what you get living on a farm in the middle of no-where!
Wow! Love your mini book!
One of my favorite school day memories is making a recording for an album (ok, I know I am showing my age - LOL) of patriot songs to celebrate America's 200th Birthday. We were a big choir at school with some very talented people.

OMGosh!!! Words fail me... Amazing
I love your mini book! I just got into minis and I'm addicted! Thanks for sharing!
My favorite school memory is winning a spelling contest in 1st grade. My teacher gave me a Daisy Duck figurine as a prize and I still have it to this day!
I'm Gina from Daly City, CA and I love to scrap!
a.d.o.r.a.b.l.e - well done as usual :)
Awesome Album! TFS! Oh my, so many school memories! But I think the one that stands out is... well, I was always the shortest one in my class unti I got to 4th grade... I was taller than my teacher! How do I know? well, because as she was walking across the playground one cold winter day, I walked up behind her and measured...yup, of course with my hand ... and yup, she turned around... I spent the next recess inside.... :) She was the sweetest teacher..so many fond fond memories with her!
lovely mini album. I guess one of the funniest memories of HS was me and my boyfriend making out in the back of the class room while a movie was on and the desk fell over. Guess we got busted. LOL
Beautiful album and what a great gift.
My favorite school memory has to be my senior year all of the fun activities we did and the excitement of starting a new chapter in my life. If I could only go back. time goes by too fast
I love that mini album. My favorite memory of my school days was P.E. the year they introduced swimming as a credit.
What a good friend to "share" pictures, she is going to love this.
Love this album idea
My childhood memory is my favorite nun (no scary habit) showing us how to hatch a egg in an incubator, wish I had pictures from then. She always encouraged me to find out more about animals.She fed our curiosity and this was 30 years ago.

I love the whole mini album concept. You did a great job. My favorite memory was on the last day of high school a bunch of us just sat out front and talked about our futures. It was very enlightening.

Oh I love this!!! What a wonderful idea and book! My favorite memory about school would have to be all the band trips in high school.

Awesome job on the album Wendy!!! She'll love this.
So adorable--what a special memory keepsake! I think my most memorable--share-able--school memory would probably be my first ever day of school--started kindergarten on my birthday--and we moved to a different house that day too!
Love the mini Wendy. You are so creative.
Fav school memory --- has to be fighting with my now BFF of 30 years (doesn't seem like I should be old enough for that) over who had their box of 64 crayons first. This was in the 1st grade and we laugh about it to this day.
Cindy Smith/Ashville, OH/USA
My favorite memory from school years, is getting ready for school every morning, packing sack lunches for 5 of us, and all walking to school together. :o)
Your project is spectacular!
Another adorable mini book - you never fail to amaze!
Fav school memory was getting new school supplies. I'm still addicted to office supplies!
I just knew that when I would click onto your blog that an amazing mini would be here! Don't ya love when you're right? lol Gorgeous as always! After seeing some of your work with this kit that do not have kids of your own, so you scrap these wonderful gifts for friends that do...well, I have made the decision to find my own BFF that loves to scrapbook and has no kids!! hehehe
Your work always inspires me, and your blog title is perfect for you!
I honestly don't think that I can name an actual favorite school memory, but one that really stands out is how much I adored my 2nd grade teacher, Mrs Melander. It was her first year teaching. My appendix had burst and she brought me cards from the entire class to the hospital. And she always remembered me even after I grew up when I would see her, and that felt wonderful!

I LOVE how you used the tags and smaller pages in your mini album. I have to try that! My favorite school memory is my mom walking me to school in kindergarten. I remember looking down and thinking "I love my new shoes". LOL! It is a very vivid memory for me.

very nice album.
Very, very cute!! Your friend is a lucky girl!
I teach school and LOVE every day with my students. Too many good memories to list!
Love the travel album & keeping my fingers crossed on that one since I have at least a dozen trips I need to scrap.
Cute use of SS products - easily adaptable. Thanks for the ideas & chance to win.
Anita - from Maine
I love what you've done with the product! Such a cute book!
Love what you did with this mini album. You're so creative. My most memorable school memory is playing "Power Rangers" in the 2nd grade. My friends and I would pretend we were the people on the show (I was the pink ranger) all during recess!
Your friend is going to love the mini album you are giving her of her daughter. :)
My favorite school memory would be of both of my sisters and little brother all riding the bus the first day that he started kindergarten. He was SO excited!
Oh how I love mini albums!
love the mini album - school memory - uhm, so long ago can't remember, that's what happens when age catches up with you and the memory starts to fail
your mini is awesome! Also like the prize pack you are offering. I have so many school memories, i really loved school and miss it. each year was such a great new experience of growth and learning. I think i am glad i was from a small town and knew everyone in the whole school.
Wow Wendy,
your work never ceases to amaze me. You have a great eye. Thanks for sharing your mini book. Definitely lift-worthy :)

Oops I forgot to answer the question.
My prom started of terribly and ended really nicely. So I'd say that's my memory.

I love the mini album! I am a mini junkie i love making them and giving them as gifts!
My favorite memory from school would have to be the two years i spent as a teacher's aid in the kindergarten room my junior/senior years!
I think i learned more about REAL life there than any other "class" i took.
I just love your work period. I was trying to figure out if you used your personal stamps. There was one saying that I loved towards the end. Thanks for doing this for all of us. It has been a lot of fun. My first blog hop.
Great album! I love what you do with some paper and scrapbooking supplies! the Ele kit is soo cute! My favorite memory was in 2nd grade when the Vice Principal challenged me to a jumprope contest, and I won in front of the entire school!
OMG! - this i sthe most amazing mini book ever. I am totally loving the blog hop - I would have never found these great places on my own. My school memory is of following the school bus as my youngest daughter gets carted away on her first day of kindergarten! I was soooo late o work!
LOVE your mini album....HAVE to get this kit!!
My fave memories from school are of times spent with the band. What is special is that most of use never lost touch, some 25 years later. AND...the rest of us found each other on facebook! Great memories and great friends. We were a little family w/in the school!
I am a mini lover and absolutely adore what you do with minis! My favorite school memory is just the general fun and giddyness of my elementary days...talking, passing notes, planning ice skating parties and slumber parties! Oh, to be a kid again! : )
Your album is awesome. I'm sure she will love it. My favorite school memory is the nun who roller skated in the hallways.
