I'm on a roll....


Not the greatest pic as usual, but I had a lot of fun with this one. The journaling says, "Again, trying to get a cute pic of the two kids together but they both seemed Unenthused!"

A quickie

I love when a layout just flows right out of me and it is quick and simple. 45 minutes or less is always a plus. This was one of those layouts. I love it. As always, wish the picture turned out better....



It says:
We tried so hard to get a cute picture of the two kids together. This one just makes me laugh! Kyle is screaming and Avery is....Laughing Hysterically!! You two crack. me. up.

Kyle was less than a month old in this picture. Poor little guy.

Weekend scrapbooking

Weekend scrapping is the BEST because I can totally focus and work hard while my husband entertains the kids.

Here are my creations this weekend:



And, a double layout that I could not get a good picture of. Oh how I wish I had a good 12x12 scanner....

Organization

I bought something amazing with my birthday money. I have been coveting this for a while. A LOOOONG while. I have taken about a year's hiatus from scrapbooking, and I'm back. I'm BAAAACK! I'm so happy.

I bought myself something wonderful from the beloved IKEA. But, first, you have to see my before pictures of why I was never scrapbooking these days.

I had no organization, and being the Virgo that I am, I had to be organized to be able to sit down and create something!! Here is the disaster.




Here is the after:


Can you hear angels singing? I can!!

So, I finally got everything organized and finalized last night. And, got up at 6:30 am with one thing on my mind. Scrapping! I snuck downstairs before everyone woke up and created this in my wonderful new space.

It's a page about when Kyle was just home from the hospital and how he fit right in to our family.

Isms-Great Idea for Mother's Day

I had this idea, and here it is....


This is a fabulous way to display all those cute and funny things that your kids say. Would be a great gift for Grandma, Daddy, or anyone that loves your child (almost) as much as you! Or keep it for yourself to hang in your child's room. Basically, it is a 12x12 layout all about your child surrounded with the cute, funny, or just precious things that make them who they are! Otherwise known as an -ism. The one pictured here is one I did of my niece named Hazel, so thus it is titled: Hazel-isms.

All you have to do is send me a list of words, quotes, or stories that make them who they are. On this example, I have a prayer she once said, a song she made up on the fly, and tons of funny things that she has been caught saying to her Mom. I will write it all out in a fun creative way, creating an original piece for you to keep. Depending on what those quotes may say, or some of their favorite things, I will add embellishments that will enhance this original piece of art.
I can do the 12x12 in different colors, but looks best in white.

I love this one of my husband and daughter napping together.....so cute! I really love bright colors with black and white....probably my favorite type of look.

Back in the Saddle Again

So, I really stopped pursuing my dream to get paid to do what I love...Scrapbook! But, I've been inspired again. I'm ready to do this, but I just have to stick with it.

I've decided to open my own shop on Etsy. Please check it out!! Follow this link to see my shop.

It's a work in progress meaning that it's going to take me a little while to make enough layouts to actually have some product to show, but I'm excited. I've got the bug again, and we all know I have enough materials!!

Happy Scrapping!
