Rayne's All-Star Team
Rayne's all-star team played tonight on the field of dreams in van buren. They didn't do very well. Rayne can't say it was his fault. He only got to bat once, and he wasn't in the field any. They play again tomorrow at 4:45. Yippee! At least the weather has cooled off a lot, and we didn't burn up watching the game.

Mixed Media Journal Page
I am very in to journaling this summer and using mixed media. The below picture is is a page out of one of my journals. I like "rustic" pages.
First I painted the page with primer, and when that dried I covered the whole page with an apple barrel paint called Pear. I then decided my pictures needed matting so I created mats with black paint. After letting that dry, I glued down my pictures and wrote captions with a black permanent marker. Overall, I like it. It's messy but fun. Oh, and I like to prime my pages so that the paper won't soak up all the paint and the marker won't bleed through to the other side.
