getting back in the groove

2008-11-15T08:23:00.000-08:00

FINALLY! i feel wonderful now that i got my scraproom cleaned and i can actually get something accomplished...

so here is a couple of new layouts and a card...

okay so apparently taking them directly from photobucket makes them not fit right. if you want to see the whole thing just click on the pictures. i wont do that again i promise.

halloweeny cards

2008-10-17T14:27:00.000-07:00

okay, i got called out for not updating my blogs, (brooke) so i am going to make a sincere effort to try and post on them at least once a week. good thing i just finished some cards so i have something to post here. hehehe.

so there ya go......

one amazing little girl

this layout was a step outside of my box. i tried so very hard not to be so anal about everything and to be as random as i can be. i am pleased with the outcome, and this LO i would actually like to frame and give to abbey as a gift. i think it would be a good thing for her to look at when shes feeling down, just as a reminder that she is special.

here is a close up of the journaling..

one last LO i did the other weekend. im pretty dang happy about how this one turned out! nothing at all like the original plan, but thats okay by me. i also have another LO in the works on my scrap table as i type this, hopefully i can get it finished tonight and posted tomorrow- we shall see. :)

saturday and sunday scrapping!

2008-02-24T08:52:00.000-08:00

i'm getting through these challenges slowly but surely.

the first layout is for a challenge to not use pictures. i used the brochures paul and i got when we went to the Holocaust museum in Florida. its a simple LO,but i didnt want to clutter it.

the second one is for a rip the picture challenge. i took those pics last sunday at christmas. jaden and i were talking about emotions, and i would say one and he would make the face for a picture. when we got thru the basics, i asked him if we were missing any and he said "yeah the hard on face!". hes 5. enough said. hahaha.

the third one is for a reasons i love you challenge.

last one for now... it was my take on an ad that the challenge poster posted.

three more challenges to finish by 11 tonight and i will have done every one!

cyber croppin!!!

not too scrap crazy lately

2008-02-22T13:55:00.000-08:00

but i have managed to get a few things done....
made another little calandar dealy..
an altered picture matte in a frame....
a LO of angis little guy hunter....
and i am in the process of working on a secret project. :)

on the up side of scrapping though----- i told my sister that what i wanted from the kids as a gift was for them to make me some scrap pages for a change, so this is what i recieved! ** got some future scrappers there!

'friends'

2008-02-12T12:30:00.001-08:00

i made this LO from a sketch posted by angi on 8up. interestingly enough, she is in the picture :)

im also working on a couple of other projects that i hope to have done by the end of the week! hard to say when i will get scrappy time in though. keep a eye out!

stuff ive been working on today...

2008-02-10T13:20:00.000-08:00

i finally finished my layout for myself. it was tough to try and come up with 10 things i love about myself. but i feel so good now that i have them down on paper and anytime i start feeling bad, i can always look at that LO. it was fun, though, trying to get the essence of me onto a page. :) the other project is an altered box that i am going to give to the lady who takes care of our advertising at work. hopefully it will make her smile and see how much i appreciate her! *sorry about the non cropped pic of the LO. i still havent figured out how to crop on my laptop. one of these days i will find a way!

for happy hearts day

2008-02-10T06:34:00.000-08:00

i had to come up with something new this year for the kids, so i racked my brain until i came up with this. i made 8 of them. one for each of the kids under the age of 14, not including the babies. (i am going to send them cards as they arent old enough for all of the candy)

im here

2008-02-06T14:05:00.001-08:00

okay i know i havent posted anything new in a while, but i PROMISE i will try harder. i have been scrapping, just not a whole lot. one of these days when i am super slow at work i will try and get what ive done lately posted here.

peace and another......
