MIA

Yep, I've been MIA from my blog for quite sometime. My family has moved out of our home into a small rentalf for the time being while we deciede if we are to build a new home or find an existing one. What happened to our other home? We turned it into another group home. This one is four young ladies & it has been quite the different experience for sure. These young ladies are definetly different than our guy homes, but it is going to be a fantastic experience.



Well back to scrappy things................I finally got to scrap this past weekend. I went to a retreat with my friends Alison, Cheri, & Cheri's daughter Britt. I completed 20 pages!!!!! & had loads of fun. Start watching for me to post some fun pages soon. I was even able to get most of October & November's sketches for Let's Scrap done as well.



Speaking of Let's Scrap, today is Wednesday, & you know what that means? That's right........a new sketch was revealed!




Hope you are all enjoying this fabulous fall day!

I just love to sew on my pages. One of those just can't do a page without it kind of things. Here's a page I did with a kit put together by my sweet scrappy friend kimmyj.

The arrow is supposed to be pointing at the pictures. I didn't realize that it had fallen before I took the picture & uploaded it. Sorry!

Will we ever have summer?

Well the weekend is here & the weather is not any better than the rest of the week. Wondering if we will have any summer at all here in Minnesota???????? It's felt like October all week! Well to warm up my weekend I thought I would share a page I created with one of my favorite October Afternoon lines. This beautiful little lady is my daughter Nichole almost 5 years agao. It's one of my favorite pictures of her. Shortly after this picture was taken she chopped off her hair!

Well enjoy your weekend. Hope is warm where ever you are!

A "Berry Sweet" challange was just posted over over at Let's Scrap by DT member Jodi Wilton. It's a fun one so don't miss out. You have until next Thursday to post your page & Jodi is even offering a RAK from her stash for one randomly drawn winner.

Here's a fun page I created with the Summer Stack from DCWV. I just love this stack, especially since it is double sided & all glittery! Been stalking the stores to see what they will come up with for their Fall stack.

Now I must get back to my stack of paper work so I can get back to the "FUN" paper work I'm dying to do!

Not much scrapping time lately!

Not much scrappy time for me lately. So I thought I would share a couple of my favorite pages from sketches at Let's Scrap.



This page is my sweet little Olivia when she was just learning to roll over. I just can't believe that was over 3 years ago! Boys does time fly.
I just loved this sketch & knew right away that I wanted to use these pictures of Alyssa that she took fooling around with her camera. It just shows what a fun girl she is!
Check out Cheri's awesome sketches over at Lets Scrap. Each Wednesday a new sketch is posted & the winner recieves some scrapping goodies from the sponsor. This week is Nikki Sivils! She is a new company & has some really inspiring new scrapping goodies. Make sure you check her out!
